Comments Thread For: Floyd Sr. Confirms: Mayweather-Canelo Must Be at 147!

[QballLobo]

At this point I just don't think Floyd cares what his legacy is. Right now he will be remembered more for who he didn't fight than his victories in recent years.

I have said it in the past, I don't think Floyd is afraid of losing to Canelo, or even Pacquiao.
I do think that he knows that even in victory he will take shots he is just not prepared to take at this point in his career.
I think he didn't want the Pac fight because he knew Manny would get to him, and then people would want a rematch, and then a third fight after that. He wasn't getting in the ring even once with a guy that could hurt him. Especially after a 39 year old Mosley that hadn't fought in a year and a half put him on ***** st. in round 2.
Same story with Canelo now, he knows he will win but also knows Canelo has the power to hurt him. The Cotto fight was an eye opener for him that he can't hang with legit 154 pounders.
So be it, time to move on to the next one for team Canelo....

A bigger joke is your constant fluffing of floyd even in the face of debacle after debacle...I think you're taking the 'Hard work - dedication' mantra a bit far. It was meant for training motivation, not being an arselicker.

A pisstaker of floydiots.

Do you have like a name calling guide next to you at all times or are you just immature at all hours of the day. Oh i forgot you need me to hate for you to respect me. Got it.

Are some not reading the same article I am, this idea of only fighting at 147 is coming from Alvarez's people. This did not come form Floyd Sr.

Stop the tears, little cheese. You could just be real and not such a bumsniff, that might get you respect from people other than fellow floydiots.

why keep putting a fighter down but when it comes time to fight u make more excuses than anyone. Why won't floyd Fight canelo at 154? Floyd just fought cotto at 154, Floyd has a belt at 154 Floyd would whoop canelo at 154 but why go to 147 then lol. Admit the truth!

Im making excuses for Floyd? You and Gong should join a reading club or something. Take some comprehension courses maybe. Together you two could go in there and write essays on bumsniffs.

Let the fight happen and we will see what side of the fence i stand on.

He's the one that has to get in the ring, not me. Of course I want to see Floyd vs. Canelo at a reasonable weight but if he and his dad feel the weight difference is too much to overcome then that's on them and they should be ready to deal with the criticism they are about to receive.

I would respect him more if he just came out and said "I plan on staying at 147 for the rest of my career. I tested the waters at 154 twice and was uncomfortable being at a significant weight disadvantage".

Whitaker and Pacquiao fought at JMW one time and said the exact same thing.
