Comments Thread For: Canelo: Mayweather Wanted 147, Tried To Keep Us Quiet

[mathed]

if weight is being disgust so much, you can believe hes having problems making weight for a while and he gonna look like it come fight night...

thuth is , Canello should be fighting GGG and them...

GTFO with that...truth is, this fight should be at 154 because they both have 154 pound titles, LMAO.

This thread consists of Floyd fans desperately attempting to save there catchweight queen from harm, some can't even admit the guy is a moronic hypocrite, the biggest in the sport by far.

But again, my point is, Canelo should've just remained silent. It's pointless talking about a disadvantage you accepted.

It's even DUMBER for the guy who demanded the Catchweight. All Floyd had to do was cap the ring entrance weight, rather than the weigh-in weight and there would be no ammo, no excuses if Canelo lost. Floyd shoots himself in the foot now and then and he blew off his big toe this time.

It is about the catchweight. The minute Canelo loses, or let's say gets KO'd, those same fans will attribute that to Canelo being drained. That's why it would've been better if there was no catchweight. It gives the masses of haters a loaded ******* to use for excuses as for why Canelo loses or gets stopped.

Who exactly are you to advise Canelo on how to react?

[LADIV]

Canelo accepted so that's that. Floyd is the highest paid athlete in the world and p4p top fighter in all of boxing, of course opponents are going to have to make sacrifices. Some more than others. Is it fair? no, but that's the reality here. Mayweather was subject to that himself against De La Hoya. If Canelo wants the top spot he's gonna have to get it in side the squared circle, no excuses.

floyd is not the highest paid athelete in the world (was before) the highest paid athelete in the world goes by the name of TIGER WOODS so STFU

What if Floyd loses? Didn't he basically take away his own excuse for losing by "draining" Canelo? He can't use weight as an excuse now, I mean how can you complain about losing your 154 pound title at 152?

That's the best thing you can come up with for a response? And who are you? It's just my opinion.

[True-Boxing-Fan]

who gives a ****, Floyd is 147, Canelo is making his biggest purse with Floyd, so who needed who here?

Boxing fans are so ******, they forget that this is a business SMH

Canelo may be making his biggest purse ever with this fight. But so is Floyd. Floyd isn't getting paid what he is getting paid with no one else, expect a PAC fight a couple years ago.

Not necessarily. If Floyd loses, that still can be used as an excuse because it's known that he's really a welterweight. If the fight would have took place at Welterweight though, and Floyd lost, then what you just said would totally stand ground.

[AllBoxingAD]

This thread is so childish.

Ya'll go like this: Ill admit Floyd is a hypocrite for the catch weight only if you admit that Pac is a hypocrite for his PED stance first!

Or vice versa.

Grow up.

Catch weight was a power move. Floyd flexing some negotiating muscle just to mess with him. Leonard explained how it goes already. And all top boxers do it. Get over it.

None of us really believe those 2 lbs will mean a damn thing come saturday night.
