    Regardless if u agree with the CW or not, Floyd is being a hypocrite. Doing the same thing he bashed PAC for.

      Hopkins sounds confused. First he asks why wouldn't he take any advantage he can get and then he says he wouldn't do it.

          dude, floyd has been a hypocrite long before this and will surely do something else hypocritical again. we agree.

          it simply comes down to posters that spent years arguing a CW doesn't affect anything, ellerbee doesn't know isht etc etc now changing positions because it allows you to criticize floyd. Hopkins isn't a soildier in the ******ed floyd v manny NSB war so he isn't going to evaluate it based on allegiance to a fighter.

            I personally don't like the catch weight but I don't think Floyd is being hypocritical. I just think it's part of boxing negotiations and trying to get any advantage he can.

            Floyd is in the drivers seat, let's be real on that. So he's going to dictate the size of the ring, venue, money, weight and anything else he wants to. Canelo wants this fight, he has to take those stipulations.

            Just like Oscar did before him, not Floyd is calling all the shots. In the end, Canelo will balloon up to 170 or so, and that will be a tough task for Floyd to deal with in the ring.

              when he said i dont take catchweight fight like pac does, then here comes canelo,
              floyd: "lets fight @150"
              canelo: "152 lets fight"
              floyd: "okay thats good for me"

              right his not hypocrite

                I think once Canelo's camp said it had to be at 154 you knew it was going to be something lower. I wish it was at 154 as well.

                I also hope Canelo weighs 154 on the scales, pays whatever the penalty is, and then they fight.

                      Excuses satisfy those that make them !

                      Jr makes excuses and in his mind they are TRUTH !!

                      IF JR wants to change his excuse and expose hypocrisy then he has no problem with that and claims his new excuse as TRUTH.

                      So he can say one thing one day and another opposite thing the next, both opposing and both will at the time said will be TRUTH

                      He is only fooling himself and a few of you.

                      Truth is Jr is a HYPOCRITE

                      HE does NOT want you at your comfortable weight,,,,OH WAIT only if you are washed up, worn out with ZERO HOPE,,,sorry
