    Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo Wasn't Ready For Mayweather in '13

    In 47 professional outings, Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez has a lone loss, which came against Floyd Mayweather Jr. on September 14th, 2013 where he lost a clear cut decision over twelve rounds at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. At the age of 23, Alvarez went up against the era's best boxer.

    The question is: was he ready to handle such a task?

          Quit lying Oscar. The whole Team Canelo was confident it was their time to get rich.

          Where the hell is the videos/pictures of Canelo's brother showing a tattoo saying Canelo would be the champion on the date they fought?

              sure oscar whatever u say. all you kept saying before the fight was mayweather was going to lose to ur fighter then u ended up in rehab. if he wasnt ready u shouldnt of signed him to fight mayweather u obviously thought he had a real chance to win or it would not of happened. then again oscar was so busy snorting drugs in lead up to mayweather canelo that i doubt he even remembers. All i hear is excuse a bunch of bull**** excuses like every other time mayweather beat someone. according to people on nsb mayweather has never won a fight. I have never heard so many excuses for one fighters opponents in my life its almost laughable

                    Aside from winning the fights, you can always count on two things whenever Floyd Mayweather steps into the ring: he will always have the full backing of Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer, while Oscar de la Hoya will always pick him to lose, no matter the opponent. Such has been the case for every one of Mayweather’s fights dating back to when Golden Boy became the lead promoter for his events, dating back to his explosive 10th round knockout win over Ricky Hatton in Dec. ’07. Since then, de la Hoya has been publicly let down by the likes of Juan Manuel Marquez, Shane Mosley, Victor Ortiz, Miguel Cotto and most recently Robert Guerrero.


                    Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya once again expressed the opinion that WBC/WBC junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (42-0-1, 30KOs) will be faster and in much better shape for Floyd Mayweather Jr. - because of the agreed upon catch-weight of 152-pounds. The fight is scheduled for September 14th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.


                    Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya believes Floyd Mayweather Jr. (44-0, 26KOs) is feeling a sense of insecurity with the upcoming fight against WBC/WBA junior middleweight champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (42-0-1, 30KOs). The fight takes place at a catch-weight of 152-pounds. Mayweather had previously fought at the full junior middleweight limit of 154 on two occasions, against De La Hoya in 2007 and last year against Miguel Cotto. Both fights were tough outings for the pound-for-pound king, with Mayweather winning both by way of twelve round decision.
