Comments Thread For: Mayweather Backs Golden Boy's Decision on Canelo-Golovkin

[WesternChamp]

Top Rank was protecting Manny. That's why Manny was "scared of needles," "cuts not healing," "outdoor stadium," etc. Fight should've happened before Floyd went to jail! After Floyd came out, and got that big Showtime contract, he and Haymon made Bob suck di*k! After Manny got destroyed by Marquez, he needed Floyd! Floyd milked him, and then schooled him!, and used Manny to make $300 million! Manny hasn't been the same since Ariza left! #48 never had a chance, neither mentally nor physically!

still avoiding the question that you set youself up for huh? its ok, i wont make you come out and say it. you avoiding it twice and posting something that has nothing to do with it tells me all i needed to know lol.

"Men talk, women talk, but numbers never lie!" There are a lot of people who hate Mayweather, but still paid for his fights. Same with Ali. If boxing fans want to apply pressure on Canelo, don't buy Canelo vs. Liam Smith! If Canelo can get a sold out venue in Las Vegas and 700K PPVs, why would he be in a rush to fight GGG? Canelo has plenty of talent to choose from @ 154 after Liam too! Andrade, Charlo twins, J-Rock, etc. This is why I thought GGG should have accepted the 155, and then forced Canelo to walk away from that. That would've damaged Canelo for good!

Of course he does. Mayweather made a career out of avoiding real competition in their prime.

Yes, and what happened to Donaire after that loss? if you're really top5 P4P you don't disappear from the rankings. Look at Pacquiao, he lost some times and was still P4P. Anyway that was just one fight.

Put Canelo in the ring with GGG and you'll see something similar.

If Pac is still P4P, why all the b1tch'n about when Floyd beat him?

Doesn't say much for GGG then. Put Floyd's first 35 fight resume next to GGG's. Or put his resume at 34yrs old next to GGG's. If Floyd didn't fight real comp, that makes GGG an absolute f.uck'n joke.

Floyd lost to Pacquiao.

You only hear what you want to hear! This is settled business. Floyd beat Oscar, Marquez, Mosely, Cotto, and Pacquiao, and he made more money than any other athlete on the planet. Canelo would be wise to follow in his footsteps!

Floyd lost to Pacquiao.

Oh OK. Didn't realize there had been a rematch, and Manny had won it. I've only seen the first fight where Floyd beat him pretty handily. Guess it was the shoulder all along. Guess I gotta hit up youtube to find that rematch. Actually kinda looking forward to the rubber match.

Nobody ducked Floyd doe. He was like Danny Garcia. Everyone wanted a piece of him. It's not a viable comparison.

Ironically, you can remove all of those names from Floyd's resume. And he'd arguably STILL be a HOF'r.

Really? I vividly remember Mosley not wanting to fight Floyd when Floyd was at 30 and Mosley 35. I remember Hamed not wanting to fight Floyd when they were a division apart. I know most of y'all weren't following boxing back then. But Floyd pretty much b1tch'd, moan'd, and begged bigger stars for fights for years before he got his break.
