Before the news broke, I’ve posted (on another site) these comments below:

Various people suggested a “solution” for this fight to happen a 154 — that is to keep Canelo under 165 in the fight night…
In my opinion even this would be too dangerous for Floyd. Canelo is fast, cuts the ring, hits hard with both hand, and is incredibly defense savvy for his age…

This is the best article I’ve red on this issue so far.

… there is a conclusion that the author missed: the business of boxing is sinking fast — Floyd has to pass the torch eventually…
And this is a process to be carefully undertaken…

I don't care if your fighting Sugar Ray Robinson, if hes 23 you don't ask for a catchweight when your over 30 unless your alil b*tch

Says the fool who's in love with the catchweight king duckquiao

I see the Mexican fan base already crying..very emotional

[shade darkar]

decent, but find it strange how floyd used to give pacman **** about catchweights, now he is using another 1 himself!

[Slowhand]

Lots of ******ed haters here I see.. how much weight advantage should a 36 yo give to a 23 yo (fight night) to make it ok, 30 lbs? Maybe 40? You idiots just can´t appreciate what´s being made here for real boxing fans. Or are you already making excuses for Canelo, "that 2 lbs made all the difference in the world"? Would it be possible to just enjoy the biggest fight of the year, no matter what the weight limit is or even who wins the fight?

We have a new catchweight-cherypicker King FL0mo

People give Mayweather fans stick, and rightfully so. One minute catchweights are horrible and now they're fine.

But how can you ignore these fans who are fine with Catchweights and now it's a sin?

Mayweather-Canelo at 152 is a great fight. This is a great fight. We should all be happy.

I can bet people won't be though.

Coolio.

It's easy to poke fun at the catchweight, but I'd rather be happy that the fight is happening. Mayweather is going to dominate the Ginger.
