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.
