Same reason the Pacquaio fight didn't happen..it's never about money or testing. It's about ego's and not being willing to give up anything in negotiations. Which is fine because you are the bigger star in all your negotiations but you make your opponent feel like a straight bisch when they can't even decide what toilet they get to piss in on fight night. Now the weight thing..if he's asking that you can't rehydrate to 170 I don't have a problem with that. Just not that insanity of not letting the man rehydrate at all...that would be ludicrous. Say you can rehydrate ten or so pounds I can live with that.
Ok if you want to point out the REPORTED part then why is this article such a big deal all this is REPORTED that Floyd said this By Canelo's trainer show me proof that Floyd actually said any of it
60 pages and they still havent twigged that rehydration isnt an issue and is making them look more ridiculous with every mention. Has there ever been a thread where floboners have been so completely self owned and humiliated? The next time might be soon when he names someone like Alexander as his next opponent instead of this fight!
Could have fought the longest reigning belt holder at 147...chooses Baldomir instead.
Could have fought the winner of Margarito/Cotto...he retired doe...
Could have fought Williams after Margarito.... dey got da same manager doe...
Could have fought Manny after he beat Hatton or Cotto....he on steroids doe....but really, he one dimensional and ordinary, easy work, easy money...
etc...etc..
What's up with all of the "doe", "dey" and the broken English? I'm assuming that you and all of the people on this forum that keep posting like that are people who have some kind of racial stereotype about black people that you're trying to express. If you think that you're making a point against Mayweather or the fans that support him with this you are misguided. The only point you're making is that you're petty, ignorant and prejudiced, which negates any credibility that you might have had in the first place. And agreeing with Raceman Richardt is a vote for a guy who has a problem with black fighters specifically.
All Floyd has to do is ask for a limit on ring entrance weight, rather than coming in at a weight he does not fight in. And according to Floyd fans, Canelo is an easy win for Floyd. James Toney and Roy Jones both fought heavyweights and won and they started out at middle and junior middle. They didn't ask for Catchweights. I'm not for or against Catchweights but the PROBLEM is when Floyd fans for years insulted Pac for doing the SAME THING Mayweather is doing now and they are trying to make excuses.
Given that rehydration is such a big deal to you, why dont you tell us the science behind this non issue?
The issue is that a guy who can't even make 154 would be fighting a guy who rehydrates up to 172. It's not rocket science dude. I'm not against the fight, at all. I just think Canelo shouldn't be allowed to come in heavier than 165, why can't Floyd being the top guy in the sport be able to exercise requests being the A-Side of this fight? What's wrong with that?
Mayweather sr fought the great sugar Ray Leonard
Mayweather Jr fought some of the same fighters Pacquiao fought
Roger fought the great pernell Whitikar and Chavez
Jeff fought the great De la hoya
