    Why no one respects him and feel he's always weazeled his way to 50 and 0.

    Check out the quote from your link, they initially wanted Canelo to go to 147lbs LMAO:

    Canelo...

    "I wouldn't do that. But when the (fight) negotiations started, they wanted me to go to 147. I said that's physically impossible. I couldn't do it. Then they inched up to 150. I said I can't do it, that's impossible. Those days are over. I can't make that weight anymore, I've grown.


    "Then they went up to 151. And then finally, so we could make the fight, I said, 'If anything, I'll give up two pounds. I'll go up to 152. I agreed to that. Then they tried to force me to be quiet and not to mention anything that they came up with the weight of 152. And that's why ... I haven't said anything until now."
    I personally don’t really care about the cw. Champions from different divisions meeting in the middle is fine...but people try to ignore the cw like it didn’t happen, like Floyd basically beat him at 154. He made the fight at a cw because he felt it was to his advantage...period.

      I know. It takes IV fluids to truly rehydrate the minerals, nutrients and vitamins back into one's body. Mayweather insisted on the catchweight not to drain Canelo but to even out the playing field because he was at a disadvantage by being the natural smaller man.

        Pacquiao gets credit for beating Cotto at 145. Cotto could never make welterweight again after that too.

          I despise catchweights, but Floyd totally dominated that fight, all with skills, skills, skills. It'a a great win. Over a guy who was NOT green in the least, who'd already had a lot of big fights.

          Floyd "put on a clinic", as the saying goes.

            He used tainted beef as an excuse to cheat of course he’s a liar lmao. We’re talking about a guy (Canelo) who owns the record for the most catchweights of course he requested it lol

              Also I don't buy Canelo was green. 40 professional fights in isn't green. The same people who say Canelo was green also say Floyd was ducking Thurman who at the time had only 20+ fights. This is evidence that whoever Floyd fights people will hate on.



              good point

              the weight made no difference whatsoever in that fight

              Canelo weighed 1.5 lbs less than he did for Trout, 1 fight earlier

              if Mayweather wants the fight to be a boxing match, it will be a boxing match..... Canelo got schooled

                  I'm sure Mayweather mentality is "F#ck Your Credit, I Got Your Money!"

                    Why are Floyd fans lying when they say Canelo insisted the catchweight? Because judging from Canelo's own words that he doesn't want to do a catchweight because he feels like its going to affect him and it did in the weight in and in the fight where he looked absolutely sluggish and horrible.

                    "I'll tell you the truth of what happened," Alvarez said in Spanish through translator Eric Gomez. "Why would I give up the weight? I'm at 154. I'm the 154-pound champion.

                    CANELO: Calm in the spotlight

                    MAYWEATHER: 10 bone-rattling shots

                    "I wouldn't do that. But when the (fight) negotiations started, they wanted me to go to 147. I said that's physically impossible. I couldn't do it. Then they inched up to 150. I said I can't do it, that's impossible. Those days are over. I can't make that weight anymore, I've grown.

                    "Then they went up to 151. And then finally, so we could make the fight, I said, 'If anything, I'll give up two pounds. I'll go up to 152. I agreed to that. Then they tried to force me to be quiet and not to mention anything that they came up with the weight of 152. And that's why ... I haven't said anything until now.

                    "They said we were idiots, we were ******, that we were the ones that wanted the catchweight."

                      Just like Canelo never made 154 either after fighting 152 and only insists on fighting 155.
