Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer: Mayweather Wants a Lower Weight

[El Angel]

Yes, we all know Baldomir had the fight of his life against the highly overrated Judah. And we also know that the Baldomir/Judah fight was supposed to be a gimme fight. But lets keep pretending that you were actually watching boxing back then to know that.

Riddle me this, during that time frame, who was the welterweight divisions longest reigning belt holder?

(Hand Up) Is it Antonio Margarito?

[richardt]

If you want the money you fight at my weight. Period.

Apparently his weight also included 154 on two occasions so 154 has been his weight more than once.

I'm simply asking you a question that you don't want to answer because you don't want to admit that i'm right.

You're not right, son...trust me, you're so far wrong its painful to watch.

[WARQUEZ]

I discredited Pac when he did the CW to Wargodito, but atleast he fought him at a damn CW. Floyd refused the CW and straight up wants to kill Canelo on the scale.

... the rich COWARD at it again, i knew it... floyd is so predictable...

Fight should be at 154! No damn catch-weight stipulations or rehydration clauses. This is a flatout duck move if it turns out to be true. I understand Canelo comes in at 170+ on fight night, but he still has a puncher's chance against Floyd.

[Hands of Iron]

There is a big difference between a fighter rehydrating at their "best" weight than dehydrating down to a weight class they haven't been.

Canelo rehydrating at 154 to 170+ is fine for him, hes done it before.

Canelo rehydrating from 147? No thanks. He'll be training mainly to lose weight and it's a farce since lvarez hasn;t done a thing at 147

Co-signed.

Looks like Floyd is going the Pacquiao route with this...147 is complete bull****. Catchweight is not as bad but still not ideal. 154 would be ideal. I really know nothing about rehydration clauses since they are so uncommon so I don't have any take on that yet.

So you 'do catchweights' now then? What a feckin clownshoe!

[Anomaly460]

Everyone's saying he fought Cotto at 154 but Cotto doesnt step into the ring 20lbs over the contracted weight...News Flash!...Weight classes are BS...Especially when one of the two people fights at their walking around weight, and the other is a re-hydration specialist!

I think Floyd beats him either way and i wish he just would (to shut everyone up)..But as the biggest draw in boxing, who was called out by his opponent, why should Floyd give this kid a 20 lb weight advantage? He probably feels the he'd outweigh him regardless, but the re-hydration from 147 will be more reasonable. Logically i just dont see how Floyd is out of line here, or how is it a duck if Canelo doesn't agree???

Bottom line is they both want to call the shots but only one of them has earned it.

You're not right, son...trust me, you're so far wrong its painful to watch.

on a side note... are you a guy? If so, why do you have a pic of all dudes that are all showing their abs? Gay?
