People are aware that this fight is happening Saturday right? At this point who cares about the weight, Floyd was shown to be a hypocrite a long time ago. Is this supposed to be something we didn't already know?

But it would be an easy and arguable excuse for folks to use for a loss. You already have so-called boxing experts using it as part of the reason as to why Floyd will lose. Doug Fisher just said on video that one of the reasons Floyd will lose to Canelo is because he's going to find out that there is a reason for weight classes, etc, etc.

We all know Floyd is a coward. He already has all the advantages. The referee ( his race and countryman ), the judges, the place ( Las Vegas, he lives and pays taxes there), the media ( they all win if he maintains his 0 ), obviously the weight, etc. He will win the same way he didi vs Guerrero. Holding, using elbows, hugging, running, etc. He is a shame to real boxing fans who pay to see a fight, not a clown. Castillo and Oscar werre robbed. And all his fights are boring, the only people that root for him are the Floyd fans, who we know who they are.

Floyd isnt as big as other Jr middles usually are.
Winning a belt at that weight doesnt magically make him as big as the rest of those guys.
Therefore, when he fights at that weight, size will inevitably be a factor.

It's crazy because all my buddies are talking about NFL and **** and I'm over here like "**** that, Mayweather vs Canelo is in 4 days." I thought NFL was petty compared to this event. Why does what Mayweather said a year ago overshadow the fact that fight is actually happening in 4 days to you? I can't even call that petty.

Originally posted by _original_ View PostCanelo 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.
