in reality floyd is the lineal ww champ. he went up to JMW 2x and won belts. in each fight he weighed under 151.
he has the negotiating power, Canelo bragged thwe fight had to happen at 154 so Haymon negotiated the cw which he believes will make it easier for floyd to win.
Its not that funny. Its just businessComment

It would look alot better had it been at 154.
It's like this, I'm all for drug testing but not the way Floyd came out of left field n demanded it cuz it looked funny. Like why now u big on this. Same with the fight night weight. Nobody cared what dudes weighed for the actual fight but when it came time for him to fight Canelo that was the issue. It looked funny again. Snd how are u a 2x jr mw champ but u need a CW for him only?? Looks funny again. Would u agree???Comment

i'm not mad about it at all. just don't act like floyd is a JMW that campaigns there. floyd deserves criticism for the cw-but its not worse because he beat odh and cotto at 154.Comment

For the record I'm cool with a rule that says u cant be higher then 168 on fight night if your fighting at 154. Just like I'm cool with random drug testing. I just don't like how something always has to be done to accommodate Mayweather all the time.Comment

Naw, I brought it up because it's the biggest fight of the year after Mayweather/Canelo. But I understand, your still bitter that your favorite fighter got brutally knocked to death.Comment

a fight with floyd brings the biggest money so fighters suggest things (going to 150 for example) or agree to his terms fight him. Its no different than srl or odh in their time as cash cow.Comment

It would look funny had he made Cotto fight at a catchweight, being that he doesn't rehydrate to light heavy. It would have been even funnier making De La Hoya fight at a catchweight, being that he doesn't rehydrate to light heavy. In fact, Floyd couldn't have made Oscar do anything, as Oscar was the A-Side and used that leverage to make Floyd fight where Oscar wanted Floyd to fight, much like Floyd is using his A-Side leverage to make Canelo fight where Floyd wants him to fight. But of course, Floyd is a coward because of that, right? Floyd requesting a drug test from Manny didn't seem funny to me at all, being that Floyd would be taking the tests as well, and that Floyd has implemented that testing in each of his fights ever since, and drug free Manny has not, but, Floyd is a coward for fighting on even playing fields, I guess. I wanted this at 154, but I don't think requesting a guy who rehydrates up to 172 pounds to lose 2 pounds is outrageous, I just don't believe that to be true, I'm sorry.Comment

I get it, he's not the first but that don't mean I think it's ok cuz others did stuff in the past like that. I think it's lame but whatever.Comment
