    That's what happens when you dont finish high school and your family is full of criminal ex convicts.
    You can always tell when Floyd is guilty of something he has the same response of nervousness or clueless remember this response? Floyd is a guy who knew all about power pellets and roids all of a sudden he doesn't know what TRT is which is basically injectable pellets.

        A rehydration clause would have been far more dignified and would have been fair and he would not have been seen in the light he has with Catchweights. I don't see why in hell Floyd chose the 152 clause instead of a demand that Canelo weigh no more that 162 the morning of the fight with a serious penalty if he falied.

          My thoughts exactly,,, Rehydration clause would have been much better,, I dont think anybody would have a problem with canelo having to coming in on fight night at or under 161 or something like that

            Canelos camp offered to Mayweather to "catch" Canelo at 152, so he said OK!
            Done, Floyd offered nothing! Personally Title fights should NOT have any weight stipulations other than what each division calls for! The Champion fighting 10 rounders should have the option for + or - a few pouinds but fighting outside their titles is to scarey these days! It should absolutely NO bearing on the fight! Theres a full 35 hours from weighin to bell time! If Canelo makes 54 easily theres nothing to make 2 more! He's a kid from christ sakes!

              Just watched the vid... Damn floyd looks bad,, passing it off to leonard ellerbee,,
              Thats funny,,, I thought floyd was the boss,,,,

              He wants everyone at their best.. What a hypocrite

              Floyd fanboys will be saying the same garbage that canelo's team wanted it..
              HAHAHAHAH you are an idiot if you believe that.....

              I have lost alot of respect for floyd over the past few years... Use to be my favorite from 98-2007 but since he became a huge star, he acts like a coward,,,,

              Hope canelo comes in at 154 and see if floyd still fights..

                Pacquiao made Cotto lose a higher proportion of his bodyweight than Canelo has to burn for Floyd.
                Yes, you are right. I can see there is a huge difference. A welterweight losing 2 extra pounds is a real drain but a Jr. middleweight losing 2 extra pounds is a piece of cake.

                      Canelo at the start of the negotiations said he cannot comfortably make less than 154 and Floyd still demanded he make 152. But don't let your fantasy get in the way of facts. Floyd's demand of 152 has people wondering WHY he would make that demand. Fear? Control? Spite? You name it.
