Comments Thread For: Canelo: Mayweather was in the same position I'm in now

its really simple. Canelo gets a relatively ****ty deal for the most money he's ever seen for the biggest fight to be made right now.

Go in, beat floyd's ass, let the judges give you a SD that should be a UD and become the biggest star in the sport. Or, get beat, get the fat payday, and regroup and fight Canelo in May on ppv. No lose situation for Canelo.

I don't see this as a ****ty deal having to lose 2 lbs for a guy that weighed 153 recently and is a former WW himself, and how is he gonna fight himself in May? LMAO....sorry, I couldn't help it.

oops i mean cotto thanks. i deserved that.

fight should be 154. and apparently if canelo comes over he loses the bulk of his purse. Canelo may get $12 mil-floyd's guarantee is rumored to be $40 plus. So its kinda ****ty IMO.

It's not a bad deal honestly. 12Million by far the most of his life. If he's taking this fight seriously, he should have no issue losing the extra 2 pounds to ensure he collects in full on that purse. He's never headlined his own PPV event so to say getting $12m is a bad deal is crazy talk! Lol

nah, its just pure hate. Alot of these same posters were saying Floyd was scared of him and that he would beat or trouble Floyd. Then Floyd signs and they try to act like its an easy win so they can come out looking good no matter what happens

They don't ever come out looking good. Hell, a few months back they said Floyd had slowed down, his legs were gone, he's getting hit more now, Guerrero's gonna knock him the f---out, yada, yada.

Floyd has them losing sleep over his next move.

"I think I'm going to have to train with guys that are my size"
Hmmm, what did Canelo mean by that?

[bojangles1987]

Bull****. Mayweather worked for years to get the big money. Alvarez is being handed it after one top shelf win, that was questionable anyway.

exactly. floyd was never in canelo's position. canelo is more closer to de la hoya but even thats a crap comparison.

Why no one is giving this kid a chance puzzels me, i ges that is the danger of being undefeatet, at some point you begin to think you are invinsible, and soo dos your fans

Its a very dangerous fight for Floyd , Canelo has a lot of strength and size on Floyd and he is a very quick straight puncher and he is Mexican , Floyd cannot take this guy lightly and needs to be at his best .

[A-Wolf]

If Canelo is foolish enough play it cute and try and box with Mayweather on the oustide I won't feel bad for him if it doesn't go well. He hasn't shown any sort of propensity to do anything otherwise so I don't expect to be surprised by anything that takes place in this fight either.
