    Is it the catch weight or the hypocrisy?

    I know Canelo is bigger than Mayweather and I would actually be ok with it if it wasn't for what Floyd said in buildup to the Cotto fight and him taking a jab at Manny every chance he got.

    So is it the actual catchweight for you or the constant hypocrisy of Floyd?

    It's the hypocrisy and the fact that he already fought at 154 twice.

      It's the fact that he lied about everything. He lied about wanting to fight guys at their best weight and he lied About Canelo coming to him first wanting to fight at 152. Floyd wanted Canelo to fight him at welterweight and Canelo only offered him 152 in desparation. It was 152 or no fight.

        Its the smirk....I was accused of it as a kid and everytime I see Floyd I hear my mother's voice "wipe that ****eating grin off your face!" I have a friend who looks just like Floyd but he does not have the grin....

          It's the difference between truly wanting to win a fight and just not wanting to Lose. Floyd does not wanna lose. There is a difference.

              The catchweight. I don't want a single reason to criticize this fight in any way. I want to fully enjoy this fight, but damn, I'm gonna keep thinking Canelo will look like Dawson in the Ward fight. Why can't Floyd just be a man?

                its the fact that its floyd and that most of these posters are not here for the sport they are here to one up the rival fans its ran alot of sincere boxing fans away from internet boxing sites, yes floyd is a hypocrite its not the first time either i see hypocrites daily and i myself can be blamed for it in certain situations. but the thing here is canelo came in at 153 in the trout fight and rehydrated to about 173 im not sure how that 1 pound is supposed to be a big blow to canelo. Not to mention canelo said he would go to 150 to fight floyd i have the article. so yes floyd is a hypocrite and yes i see why some people dislike him but weeks ago there was this talk that he was 2 scared to take the fight and was ducking canelo and now he takes it there is more complaints as i expected. this fight is good for the sport i love and both fighters agreed to the terms. on fight night floyd will be 151-152 and canelo will be 172+ which is insane. props to both fighters and their teams for working it out

                  but canelo in his last bout was 153 u mean to tell me the one pound with no rehydration clause is going to kill him???? and yaaaay we have just found out another human being is a liar

                    What bothers me most is that you posted two threads for exactly the same thing.
