924 posts !!!!!!!! HELLO

ere yall insane ere ye ?

This is pure de JR

He has always changed the rules to fit him.

IF he fights COTTO he wants Cotto to come in at HIS comfortable weight, if he fights Canelo he wants him weight drained

If he says one thing one day its all truth but if he changes it its all truth

I wouldn't trust JR as far as I could throw him and thats about 10 ft.

IF he fights canelo he will be on a brand new designer bicycle and a few pot shots here and there will win him the fight.

No one will beat Jr without having speed and meet him with agression and power.

I will have to admit that JR is one of the most boring fighters I have ever watched and it erks me that he claims to the greatest of all time, he couldn't even carry Rocky Marciano's JOCK STRAP

Get a clue, comfortable means NOT HAVING TO LOSE WEIGHT and go to a division he does not fight in!

It is fine at 154 and like you say doesn't loose weight. Gaining weight over 20 pounds is not comfortable. Robert Garcia had mention ...make the fight at 154 but put in the contracts that canelo can't be over 160 or so at fight night..if so he owes so much money per pound over weight...pretty much what mayweather did in the marquez fight..may paid a penalty for being over the weight limit they agreed on.

Even he mentioned..if agreed on 147..chances are he will come overweight when they weigh in maybe at 150 or so...he won't care...The fight won't be canceled.

That I can agree with. But many 154 pounders come in around 162-164 at fight night so make the cutoff 164.

Agreed cotto was 160 on fight night so 154-164 is fine by me but its starting to piss me off that Floyd haters are completely ignoring the fact Canelo WANTS Floyd. Floyd no longer has the 154 lb title. Canelo has no bargaining room and honestly Mayweather doesn't HAVE to come up to 154 to fight him. Mayweather HAD to fight De La Hoya at 154 because DLH wad the big draw in boxing. Canelo has done nothing in the sport to have any commanding power. Don't get me wrong IF the fight were to happen at 147 I wouldn't be interested BUT IF it happens at 154 Floyd should not be fighting a guy that's the same size as Andre Ward. Cinnamon weighs almost 180 pounds on fight night. Floyd is only 147 walks around at 150 and weighs less than 154 in 154lb fights. There should be weight stipulations.

All i gotta say is, If Floyd doesn't ever fight Canelo he'll had a lot of people takin bad about him, cuz now they'll say that it was not Pacquiao's fault for the fight not happening , from the beggining the issues was Floyd and only Floyd.

He didnt want to fight Margarito although I feel he would have made Marg look amateurish. He gave 101 excuses not to fight prime Cotto at 147. He created roadblock after roadblock when it came time to fight Pac. If he refuses to fight Canelo and demands Canelo come down to 147, it will be quite obvious that the common demoninator when it comes to fights not happening is FLOYD!
