Comments Thread For: De La Hoya, Canelo: Making Weight is Not a Problem

[big_james10]

The weight will not be an issue until the day after the fight. Then, Oscar and Team Alvarez will blame the weight as the reason that he lost (got KO'd by Floyd). Alvarez will also blame his trainer and will switch his trainer to someone like Robert Garcia for his comeback fight against the plodding, straightforward Alfredo Angulo. After a second, third and fourth comeback fight, he will start calling out the now 38-year-old, seven-years-past-his-prime, Floyd Mayweather, for a rematch. He will claim that that he was too inexperienced in the first fight (even though he has fought only one less fight than Mayweather) and wasn't trained properly. By then, Mayweather will be retired and will refuse to come out of retirement. Posters on this site will then create 100 threads claiming that the 38 or 39 year-old Mayweather is ducking the best opponent that he could ever face.

All of this because Oscar and Alvarez claim that making the weight limit will be no problem....

Just counting down the days. I'm a sports junkie but when it come to Boxing and MMA, it's just a different type of excitement and anticipation. War is upon us. Literally. Seeing two men go to battle is greatest event in all of sports. Seeing Pettis win the UFC title has me so hype for The 1 PPV and its two different sports. It was great and I'm hoping for more greatness in September. Idc what happens, just wanna see some real epic ****. From both fights! Alot of people will be tuning in. Alot! Hope it's a crazy night a Boxing!

PS I really wanna see Floyd lose but if he knocks out Canelo on some Ricky Hatton ****, I'd be real cool with that.

Great post.

This. Add in "and Canelo I don't believe was REALLY ready. He was confident, but I think they moved him too fast and Mayweather banked on his inexperience. But Lucas is experienced and come May 5th, he will prove to be Mayweather's most legitimate challenge and define Mayweather's entire 17 year career and everything he's worked for in this one fight" - DLH

lol,, I can actually hear him saying this,,, great job

[Wreckless]

They really cant say that there will be a problem making weight.

[Fetta]

Canelo agrees to CW and its all "hes going to be drained" or "this is how what Floyd wanted to drain him"

Canelo sayd no problem with weight and "hes lying" or "he wont make"

Oscar says no problem with weight and "hes lying" or "oscar will back track after fight"

NSB "fans" are never happy especially when it comes to a Floyd opponent

[trank]

he's going to come in at 154 and Oscar is going to pay the fine for him

[Fetta]

Oscar didnt have to drain himself to 145,,,,

Oscar chose to fight at 147 and wanted to fight a smaller guy like manny so he could get a spectacular ko ala like when he fought leija, genaro, chavez, ruelas, etc...
Oscar was looking to cherrypick a smaller guy,,,, it backfired,,,
Manny didnt force oscar to come to 145,,, Oscar over did it, for whatever reason,,,,
Manny was a superfeather with one fight at 135, when oscar wanted to fight him at 147,, Oscar looking for a cherrypick,,,

It now gets revised: that manny made oscar come down, when that was def not the case,,,Oscar chose it

I dont remember it this way at all. I remember Larry Merchant saying it should happen and with a co-promotion it would make alot of money. Oscar was semi-retired at this point and wanted to closeout career with ****. He fought Forbes then rested when Floyd retired and Hatton said no to fight. He then wanted Cotto and cotto lost so next was Manny for a big money fight for him and his company. Even Roach said he couldnt pull trigger anymore. He was a walking corpse vs forbes and even worse for pac. It wasnt a cherrypick it was for money. If anything with Roach saying Oscar was done maybe it was a cherry pick for Pac

[Jack Napier]

these guys can't decide who's fault it is
people here can't decide who to blame
and everyone is oblivious to the fact that it won't matter at all
weighing 160 won't stop Alvarez from getting shutout :laugh:

Yeah DLH decided to get humiliated by the midget and retire in shame, for that amazing 1.25m buys. Or do you figure GBP is run by ******s, not to see it coming?

"Making weight is not a problem"

Then when Canelo gets knocked out they'll make it an excuse.
