    I swear mayweather is such a ****ing ***** for forcing the catch-weight. He has a belt at 154, theres absolutely no reason for the CW. A rehydration clause woulda been more acceptable.

        Yeah it'd be like someone moving up to fight someone at 145 and then fight someone else at 147 4 months later...and then fighting another catchweight after that for a vacant title.

          Because hes really fighting a Middle weight who will be a light heavy weight on fight night?

              I know you're trying to be witty but this is his first catch weight at 154lbs. He didnt have one against Cotto or Oscar.

              Its because Canelo is a guy who should be at 160 and he will be a light heavyweight on fight night. Thats why. No jokes, no wit thats the reason. I think Canelo trying to force Floyds hand at the negotiation played a part as well.

              Told the kid you will weigh what I want you to weigh or no fight kid. And Saul bent over and took it. Now do I agree with it naw but I get why Floyd asked for it. Im also sure Floyd is smart enough to know that Saul will be heavy as shyt regardless on fight night.

                Penalty for each pound?

                What?

                Do you think it's a good tactic
                How much did your hero pay when he came in overweight against Marquez? Do you know? Did you make a similar thread back then?

                The flom brigade is starting to worry.

                  Canelo could come in weighing 175lbs on the dot. Nothing will stop Floyd from whooping his ass.

IMO...A man moving up in weight one or two divisions to fight for a title wants to challenge the champ within the limits of that division,,,as MAnny did Cotto. I dont have a issue with it. being that was Mannys first title shot a that division after coming up in weight.
                    Floyd on the other hand...Fought the 154 champ @154 with no CW and won the title. Boasting that he dont fight at catchweights blah blah blah...So now being the legit 154 champ...another legit 154 champ challenges him for his strap but with this 154 champ it has to ba at a CW? I got a problem with that!
                    supremely pathetic post, even for you. Trying to defend a double standard, GTFOH!

                      Yeah because they were old and shopworn. Not trying to be witty, just stating the truth.

                      Why are you always seemingly the authority on how big these guys are? You seem to be a very good judge of a man's size....ahem. First it was "Martinez can't make 154" and now its "Canelo should be at 160"
