Floyd is the biggest joke of a world boxing champion. I don't understand how his fans support him when he time and time again, he makes them look like idiots.

I can't believe the fight got made, could care less about catchweight

also if we're comparing to pacman and cotto, it would be wise to note that cotto would have come in slightly above 147 had they fought at that weight. canelo on the other hand would not have come in anywhere near 154 so a catchweight makes a little more sense in this case even if i dont think there should be one.

I'm not gonna sit back and moan like most just cause they hate floyd and want any reason to spew! I'm gonna sit back and enjoy this cause its a huge huge fight and event!

the catchweight is disappointing.. why does this guy always leave the door open for critics.

Probably because his critics pay most of his bills. Truth be told, Floyd's biggest comsumers are his haters. Without the haters, he never becomes the mega-star he's become. Hell, I've been one of Floyd's biggest fans since he hit the pro ranks and I think the last PPV of his I ordered was the JMM fight. Meanwhile, those who dislike him most would shell out the $70 to see him fight a broom.

it's disappointing that floyd took this at 2 pounds under the limit but i dont think it's the same as manny and cotto. in this instance, canelo had a choice of accepting the fight or not and im assuming that he agreed to it willingly since this got done pretty quickly. cotto on the other hand got jobbed by the wbo who threatened to strip him if he didnt fight manny at 145.

cotto said from the beginning that the 2 pounds would hurt him and it did since he seemed gassed from round 3 onwards. i dunno if the 2 pounds will hurt canelo but he hasnt said anything yet and he agreed to it willingly so if he thinks he can do it then there shouldnt be a problem. if he does lose i dont think it will be caused by the 2 pounds.

More excuses for Floyd, please.

They did a good job by themselves. Floyd jumped off the cliff with "I don't do Catchweights" statement and like SHEEP, they jumped right off the cliff with him!!

I am glad the fight got made but a catch weight at 152 lbs for four belts that should take place at 154.

Sigh it is what it is, now there's a tailor made excuse. I doubt 2 pounds makes a difference.

It don't make a difference if you're a fat @$$ but if you're already cut down to pure muscle it make a huge difference.
