Comments Thread For: Canelo: Mayweather Should Raise Boxing's Credibility - Face Me!

[sterilizer]

Let me get this straight. LOMO is 31 and says PAC is too old for him at 39. CANELO is 27 and wants a soon to be 42 yr old FLOYD fight? GTFOH!!

If whom you call "LOMO" is Lomachenko, which should be shorted as Loma not as that lame nickname you used, well, the reason why Loma said that is because he KNOWS HE WOULD LOSE TO MANNY even at 39, and he would be exposed, would look like an idiot. It is a lame and cowardly excuse BTW, based on realistic fear of losing and looking pathetic at it.

OTOH, both Hopkins and Foreman were very successful way past 42, even though THEY REALLY FOUGHT throughout their careers, they didn't spend most of them running away and clinching/hugging their opponents like cowardly Jr. did during his.

So all Canelo wants is to exact revenge for his only loss in his career, that's all, it is not about Jr's age, it is about trying to minimize a stain in his record, that's all. We just saw a guy 40+ pounds lighter than his opponent (Wilder-Fury) drop him like a sack of potatoes twice. Let's say Canelo-Jr. was made at a 157-pound catchweight (fair because Jr. TOTALLY DRAINED a super-green, naive Canelo into a 152-pound skeleton in their only meeting). So if on fight night Jr. was say 152 pounds and Canelo was about 172, it still would only be about a 20-pound difference, more or less the equivalent of a 40+ pound difference in heavyweight.

If Jr. thinks he is so good, with all his cowardly trickery, hugging all the time, pushing, elbowing, sucker punching, let's see him NOW against a fearless guy who walked through the guy who was the most feared and hardest puncher of his time, GGG. This time, Canelo could easily walk through 5, 10, 15 feather-fisted "punches" from Jr., just connect one or two CLEAN punches on him and that's it. Lights out and directly to the hospital. End of Jr's career. Of course his loving minions don't want to see this happen and now they use his age as an excuse for avoiding a sure defeat!

Believe me, I understand his age... But it wasn't me that said Floyd would whip canelo azz today! It was Floyd himself, so don't have no pitty for him, he a millionaire! He said it right? Not you not me, canelo said ok 160, where Floyd at? Or are you the type to be ok with people who run their mouth and don't back it up? Idk about you but that's not cool around these here neck of my woods.

Floyd will be 60 and still running his mouth does that mean he should fight a prime 30 yr old no. Floyd is the biggest attention wh ore there is. That’s why canelo should respond by simply saying he beat me when I was young I learned a lot from it (he is a much better fighter today because of that loss) but his time is over he is retired he should enjoy it I’m the face of boxing now. It’s up to him to accept it. His time is over and my time is now I wish him the best. Canelo can be a classy guy and I can totally see him saying that
Plus GGG was calling out Floyd and everyone including me gave him sh it for that and rightfully so canelo can’t be doing the same thing and have people like you hide behind the fact oh well Floyd said he was easy work. Makes sense?

[Jab jab boom]

Can you blame him ? He wants to get paid. But he should just say that instead of yapping about how it could be done to raise boxing’s credibility. He already fought and beat you once, and one judge had it a draw. No reason for him to risk getting robbed fighting you again when he could rematch McGregor, or fight Stone Cold Steve Austin or some sh** for a couple hundred million, because guess what Canelo ? FLOYD WANTS TO GET PAID TOO

lmaoo @ stone cold Steve Austin. We all know Floyd and know that Floyd isn't coming out of retirement at 42 (by the time the fight happens) to face Canelo. Unless he is dead broke, there is no reason to entertain that. Canelo has work to do at 160 if he really cares about his legacy because this farce 3rd weight division title does nothing for his legacy.

[Realizniguhnit]

Floyd has spoke on it once and for all.. Canelo had his chance when Floyd was a 36 year old man and got beat easily. Nuff said.

I don't know why he thinks he would get much credit for beating a 42 year old Floyd at 160 pounds even if he could.

Canelo is saying everything you just said lol. He isn't calling Floyd out he is being asked questions and is responding..... He isn't saying my next fifth has to be Floyd! He is saying that Floyd is retired and that if Floyd comes back and want a to fight him then he will take that fight lol. Im bilingual bro I know. Its Floyd that is saying canelo aint sh.it and that he will kick his azz again.. You don't see a problem with that? May be it should be Floyd the one that says that he is retired... Lmao but you fan boys will still watch him fight a japamesee2 kid in a 3 round exhibition lmao

[Muchen]

I wish he would call out the actual active fighters in his division....Andrade, Jacobs, charlo or even Saunders. Floyd ain’t no middleweight......let it go cinnamon.

When has Floyd ever said Canelo wasn't shyt and he'd kick his azz again? He's never said anything like that.

What he said was he was already a old man when he faced Canelo and still beat him easy and that is a fact.

He has never even entertained facing Canelo again.. He was old then and he's even older now.

[Drew Bundini Br]

1. Canelo already lost every single round the first time they fought
2. Canelo is fighting up at 168... Floyd is probably best at 147 but can do 154...
3. Floyd is over 40 and hasn't fought anyone with a pulse since Berto

Calling out old, inactive, much smaller guys who already boxed your face off when they were already past their prime five years ago isn't good for boxing.

Bullseye!!

Lol. FLOYD is NOT WILDER,FOREMAN or B HOP. Furthermore, to ask a 42 yr old retired 147lb FLOYD to fight anybody who outweighs him by damn near 25lbs on fight night simply means u most really think he's that great or ur hate doesn't allow u to use proper logic. CHARLO,JACOBS,ANDRADE are CANELO'S size. Pick one!!

Again Floyd will never shut up. Let him bark he is just bitter because canelo is the face of boxing now and he got a big pay day.
