    So were those good wins are or not?

      Miguel Cotto? Would have been great win had it fought at 147, but it happened at 145 which discredits it. Canelo would have been a great win at 154, but it happened at 152. We could argue how the catchweight didn't hamper them, but it likely did considering how they never fought back at 147 and 154 after the said CW.

        The worst part of the fight is that they are both champion at that weight and they do a CW fight. this could be the worst cw weight fight in the boxing history.

          It’s easy smacking you around
          Nothing you posted shows he “requested” the cw as you say lol. Floyd wanted the cw...canelo agreed to it. It says right in what you posted that the cw “had to be done to get the deal made”. Requested it doe...

            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
            That one upsets me the most. They say floyd ducked Thurman and fought berto instead.. Thurman had 25 fights in 2015 yet they wouldn't consider him green?

                What does a catchweight have to do anything on fight night?

                Wasn't Canelo like 160lbs on the night?

                  The best way to beat a fighter who is or may be a future threat is too wait and fight them until they are too old or to fight them when they are too young. Mayweather fought Alvarez when he was still a young pup. He is much better fighter now and has been in his prime for the past few years.

                    You believe what you believe...I’ll believe what I believe, it makes no difference. Floyd still chose to fight the guy at a cw...after all, he’s the “A side doe”. Like I said before, the cw doesn’t even bother me, it’s the guys who act like it’s basically the same as fighting at the full limit. If it made no difference, it wouldn’t have been necessary to make the fight.

                      That wasn’t part of what you originally posted. Why don’t you link the article?
