    Canelo was only 1.8lbs heavier than Maidana against Floyd...

    First, it’s hard to find a Showtime re-run of the Canelo fight. Seems to be taken down everywhere, but the Maidana ones are easy to find.

    Canelo was 166.8lbs against Floyd and Maidana was 165 against Floyd...

    Should Chino have been competing at 154lbs? or should Floyd have fought Canelo at 154?

    Chino was not a big welterweight and he fought most of his career at 140. Mayweather should have fought Canelo at the full traditional standard 154 pounds of the jr middleweight world title they were fighting for but he knew Canelo was a strong fighter and a big puncher and he wanted to drain and weaken him a couple of pounds. Mayweather was the A side and it was 152 or no fight. Canelo should have stood his ground and insist the fight take place at the proper 154 limit or no fight. He did not do this because he wanted a shot at Mayweather even if he had to lose 2 extra pounds.

      Hmm

      Let me know if this goes down on you. It is my upload not a link I've found, so, I can just up it again if need be.




      Also, if Mega sucks tell me where to upload.

        Damn, that really shows how terrible Canelo is then. People consider Maidana to be one of Floyd's biggest tests. Canelo got ass****d for twelve rounds.


        And the Canelo/Mayweather fight is available on DAZN. Thought a groupie troll like yourself would know that.

          2lbs with Marquez and Canelo. He didn’t even honor the original contracted weight and submitted his signed portion right before the weigh in. I point the double standards so you can cry about weights in the future. Not to leave you left out. And DAZN isn’t available in my region.

            Canelo was in the ring about 6 pounds less than his usual weight. Maidana was fighting business as usual. I don't see a valid comparison here.
