    Why do Floyd die hards pretend Floyd didn't brag about weightdraining young gingers?

    Floyd for years claimed Pacs CW wins don't count (I agree that pacs win over DLH has an asterisk too btw)

    And I'm not saying a fully hydrated Canelo wouldnt have a natural advantage either,but a 152 Canelo was at a huge disadvantage & fought like a zombie (not because of Floyds skill either) (Floyd wouldn't have had such an easy time otherwise thats a fact because its common sense)


    Vs Canelo he forced Canelo down to 152 where he made clear he couldn't make without severely weakening himself,(what a coincidence he hadn't fought at that weight in years before he outgrew it),& then Floyd made several videos bragging about weightdraining Canelo so he wouldn't train & even said he had spies in his camp who informed him he was going to bed without eating.

    He then taunted Canelo with steak & lobster & bragged about how he is the best because he chooses the "straight up & down come forward" fighters who have no chance"(his own words) "yeah I pick opponents I know I can beat so what thats why I'm Undefeated & making millions,if I faced who everyone wanted I likely wouldn't be Undefeated & would lose my status as moneymaker,thats why I'm the best because I pick my opponents whom I know I'll beat,not whom haters want me to lose to"(paraphrase I'll find the vid later)

    He used to say he wanted his opponents at their beat unlike pac,he said"I faced DLH,Cotto,etc. at their weight unlike cw Pacquiao"(he wasn't lying.)

    But then he despite fighting at 154 already & having belts at 154 he never defended,he forced Canelo to fight in a drained state & thats a fact.

    So even though Mayweather would've been at a disadvantage by fighting Canelo at 154 thats the REAL canelo,& beating 152 Canelo shouldn't be rewarded the same credit.

    I don't think any of them are that big a deal really, people make a big deal over CWs. Canelo offered to do the fight at 152. Don't say things you later regret.

    People forget that fighters who come down to a catchweight do often win. One example is Porter vs. Broner, I think Porter came down to 144. And Porter is a really big welterweight who'd fought at MW in the amateurs.

    For sure the extra 2-3lbs can make a big difference though.

          Bringing fighters up in weight is not equal to weightdraining them against their will. And of course Kahn at 155 was a joke,& what does clen tests have to do with this, especially since Canelo is the youngest most tested fighter, from a very young age hes demanded vada,next day weigh in vs Jacobs where he had to come in 170 means nothing especially because Jacobs blew it off & had a advantage, Kovalev got to come in at 200 lbs because of midnight fight

              Canelo fans really shouldn't be complaining about Floyd calling the shots since calling the shots is the basis of Canelo's entire allure. It's really not even close.

                Mayweather was the same exact height as Canelo ffs,his real weightclass could've easily been 154 if he wanted it to be(he had no problem fighting Cotton at 154)

                  Then show me where Canelo intentionally weightdrained his opponent by making him come down in wight to a weight Canelo already fought at?

                    Height dont mean sht , boxing is about weight.
