    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.
    ginger is there because his looks, he hasn't done $h1t to make $12 M other than beating up on JWW and barely get pass Trout, he has avoided all his contenders and GBP/WBC had made it possible for him to do it, they are some JMW like Lara, Molina, Vanes etc... that had been by pass because they and would delrail the hyper job, but since they can't create more "mandatory eliminator" without some consequences or keep paying DeCubas, they cashing out...

      Have to agree for the most part.

        Hmmm, what did Canelo mean by that?
        Little sparing partners cant take his power , he basically says that .

          No one can replicate Floyd's style. Canelo is in way too deep in this fight.

            Does Canelo know much about Floyd's career

            Floyd was 30 when he got his shot at Oscar.

              "I've got a lot of experience" - canelo

              yah at fighting undersized and shot to **** fighters...only decent/good fighter he's fought is trout.

              canelo should be fighting lara next instead of getting an undeserved big payday and a shot at floyd.

                and floyd worked his way up to that shot against oscar.. canelo gets a bunch of easy fights and looks mediocre against his only decent opponent and gbp hands him his biggest payday and a shot at one of the best p4p...shows how much of a manufactured champ canelo is.

                  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.
                  That really isn't that bad of a deal for a guy who is only known by Mexican's and boxing hardcore for the most part.

                    This catchweight wait thing sounds ****** he weighed in 153 with bigger trout but weighing 152 with floyd is a big deal spare me 154 is a CW for him he should be fighting Martinez GGG OR WARD

                      What do you mean, he just needs Broner and Berto, they both fight like Floyd does.
