    Either him, Or the winner of the fight on the weekend, hopefully Matthysse.

    Who do I think he'll fight next? I honestly don't know at this point.
    Since it's easy to fool the casuals, and sadly the hardcore fans into thinking Floyd don't want it at '54 with Canelo, it's obviously not gonna happen next. I don't like the Arum route in building things up, it's inevitable the way I see it. Want people to spend $70 dollars, convince them Floyd is facing a guy he initially "didn't want it with" . Truth be told, I don't intend on spending that kind of money so I may still stream it.

      Just go to a party when it comes off I am sure it would be popping, plus I am sure you could actually come out ahead financially on fight night considering there would be many overzealous Canelo fans.

          Didn't Floyd post multiple photos weeks before Guerrero fight of floyd on the scale weighing more than 147. Pretty sure he was losing weight for the fight

            So you're really convinced that the fight will happen at 154 and this crap about him wanting the fight at 147 is just for "hype"?

            Last week I gave Floyd the benefit of the doubt when this first surfaced but now I'm not buying it anymore. Floyd is making himself look bad and there's no point defending him.

              It's gonna happen, I thought boxing fans would have learned by now.

                Why would they change tact if it is working? If there was no heat I would expect them to change, but since this struck a nerve (which is understandable) why would they do anything other than stick to it.


                If it ain't broke, don't fix it really.


                Besides taking up a dissenting opinion is much more challenging and entertaining.

                    So how is he a 140 pounder then in 2013 if it wasn't healthy for him to make 144 in 2008???? And u know what??? It don't even matter, this is just lame on Mayweathers part.
