    Yes Floyd has fought there before but he was fighting guys close to his own age not a guy that's 13 or 14 years younger and much much bigger then he is!
    Floyd/Marquez was a catchweight fight. Floyd couldn't make the catchweight so he threw money at the problem.

      he did say he wants guys at their best weights, so there are no excuses, but then turns around and wants canelo at a CW
      He said he wants guys at their comfortable weight , that's a different context than your spin saying BEST , its these little twists on words that you guys use against Floyd all the time , and because Manny sits there like noddy while acting out the actions of a hypocrite but that's ok .

      Your stuck on the hypocrisy and not seeing the fighters and not seeing the actual boxing point of view .

      It cant be an excuse until after the fight

          Your missing the point here! Yes he is a hypocrite but look at all the advantages that canelo has youth, major size and power advantage! He is a middle weight fighting ww, i'd say the catch weight is justified and no one knows who put the catch weight on the table! Floyds camp says canelo, canelo camp says Floyd so we don't know who is lying here!

              Floyd would have been the one asking for the CW , he may have used Canelo saying he would fight Floyd at 150 as a springboard , but Canelo would want the 154 limit if it were up to him .

              But your right about Canelo having many things on his side and he is definitely much bigger than Floyd , this is not an old shop warn fighter Floyd is facing , but much bigger younger fast hungry unbeaten dual World Champion , Floyd shouldn't be bagged for this fight , you will not find a boxing connected guy not giving Floyd props for this fight , but in here this is fanboy city , real boxing talk is rare its all just hate , every thread no matter what any fighter does , all you got in here is factions hating on somebody .

                  I don't give a schit what some tuber says. Two guys that have belts at 154 should both be fighting at 154. If you can't fight at that weight, then you shouldn't have a belt there, now that's what logic is, that's why there are weight classes, smh at trying to justify catchweights.

                    once you all come to the reality that floyd contradicted himself, as he has before and im sure he will again, and catchweights have been a part of boxing since around 1895, then you will all be able to live life with one less thing to worry about... its simple try it.... all for $9.99

                      Dude please are you apart of any of those camps? Do you have access to some info that everyone else don't? We all know how the media works and they can have you believing any thing they want! And the only reason I back up Floyd is because of haters like you that nick pick at everything Floyd says or does! So if I am a huger that makes you a pure hater right?
