Comments Thread For: Team Mayweather Pounds Away on Catch Weight Claims

[WESS]

So, yeah Canelo offered 153 when he first offered to come down to 150.
Now the haters can't turn the tables and claim Floyd was the one who offered it.

At 153.5lbs Canelo doesn't look emaciated. This is pretty much how he will look if he comes in at 152.

I don't know about you but I wouldn't go to a car lot and agree to pay $154K for a car that has a price tag that is advertised as $152K on the window sticker. Doesn't make any sense.

At the end of the day, I think were lucky Floyd didn't force 147 or 150. Catchweights are ****ing ****** (when a title is on the line IMO) but 152 won't be like a Dawson vs Ward or Hoya vs Pac type fight. If it had been at 147 we would have.

I hope they show fight night weight where Floyd is 150-151 while Alvarez will be 160-170.

Floyd said.... lol So "they" now believe Floyd speaks the truth.. Interesting. Quite the paradox.

Floyd insulted Pac about Catchweights, that is not something that is used as the basis for a lie!!! And let me guess, Canelo demanded the fight be at 152???!!! The fight was made at 152 and Schafer said he worked hard to get them to meet at 152. So who then demanded the fight be under 154????? I'll give you ONE guess. Get a clue.

ellerbee's quote about weight advantage, which I agree with, shows he's a POS? Geez dude, really.

You only differentiate inprinciple to make manny look better. they are both equally problematic.

are you ellerbe??

Floyd disagrees with you and so does Ellerbe because both said that 2 pounds drains fighters. Now go take it up with them you Silly, Silly Goose.

That was the way and only way that fight was made. Canelo had refused to loose weight and Mayweather wanted the fight at 147, so Mayweather said 150 and Canelo came back at 152, there was a big argument about why did Canelo had to loose weight, when Mayweather fought Cotto at 154, but refused to fight Canelo at 154. So, I suppose that if Canelo comes in at 154, then Mayweather should be OK, with it? I would say, since he says he didnt call for it, it shouldnt matter.

2 pounds? Someone must have lied to Jimmy when he said Alvarez was 153.5 for the Trout fight.

So if you're wanting to base everything off what someone "said" about 2 pounds draining someone, well Alvarez is safe. Its not 2 pounds. lol

You don't go to a car lot offering to pay $154K for a car that was listed for $152K.

But it's all he said she said. I find it funny how you want to take Floyd's word as gold now. lol Silly goose. Kind of ironic.

the catchweight doesn't matter
but Floyd can't spin his way out of the hole he dug himself
don't cry about it then do it yourself, it's that simple
Alvarez is an easy fight for him, based mostly on size
Alvarez is too slow to do anything, the catchweight wasn't necessary

catchweight wasnt necessary on cotto, that is why they fought at 154lb, but this time floyd doesnt agree with you, he needed the catchweight otherwise he wouldnt be taking all the criticism for free...

they mad Alvarez threw out the offer of a catchweight.. lol while Floyd said ok.

should i believe you or alvarez own words??

Do the math. 152 is the number. That means that Canelo cannot come in at 152.5, 153, 153.5, 154. That's a two-point spread! What part about that DONT you get?? You sank with the "I don't do Catchweights" BS that finally caught up to Floyd. What goes around, comes around!
