Canelo won a total of zero (0) rounds against Floyd. rematch for what exactly? Floyd took this guy to the backyard and whipped his ass like a stepchild. Canelo should focus on cleaning out 160 and building his legacy.Comment

Don't get me wrong, I'd watch a rematch, but they fought and it was 12-0 Mayweather. At this point Mayweather was also 3-4 years over the hill with Canelo being in his prime. Also Mayweather is really a 140-147 fighter, so at 152 he was fighting up to 12 pounds above his natural weight, where as Canelo now is a 160 natural, but then 152 was perfect for him. Canelo had the natural weight advantage and was in his prime, Floyd was fighting way above his weight and was a few years past his best, so still won by masterclass. All the advantages in the fight were with Canelo, but Floyd found a way to win.Comment

Precisely. But don't tell these dummies the facts. It's 2018 they don't like living in reality.Don't get me wrong, I'd watch a rematch, but they fought and it was 12-0 Mayweather.

T.B.E. is done fighting the competition. We should let the man retire in peace while he collects his checks for fighting fighters with other combat skills.I would rather see Floyd fight Canelo @ 160, than a fight with Pacquiao @ 147! A win over Canelo @ 160 does way more for Floyd's legacy, and a fight with Canelo makes way more money on top of that! It's really a win-win situation! If you're gonna get punched in the head, the reward should be worth the risk!Comment

I don't know but speed kills & Nelo is not fast (and I like Nelo). Floyd also doesn't have to be at 160 fight night, its normal for him to fight fighters that out weigh him by 20 pounds & he is always faster than them. Regardless this topic makes zero sense. Floyd is done fighting the competition & will collect a check fighting fighters with other combat skills.Comment
