I could be wrong but when Floyd fought Oscar in 2007 I believe Oscar called all the shots! The weight 154, glove size, ring size, everything. Oscar was the man and the cash cow so Floyd had to respect that if he wanted to fight him.
Now Canelo and his team want Floyd they should respect that he is the cash cow and will call the shots. When Canelo just fought Trout, Canelo made sure that he had a rematch if he loss and it was in Texas, but Trout did not get that same agreement in his contract why? Because Canelo was the main draw!
It happens all the time Pac made Marquez and Bradley and now Rios come up to welterweight to fight him because Pac is the main draw it happens all the time. Dawson came down from 175 to 168 to face Ward because Ward is the man. If Floyd doesn't want to fight a guy who just weighed roughly 172 his last fight than he doesn't have to.
At the end of the day that is the only advantage Canelo has over Floyd is size, if that gets taking away Canelo would get beat a lot worse than what Robert did. He is a patient fighter who takes a lot of breaks and seemed to have some stamina issues his last fight.
172 is 3 pounds away from light heavyweight... He could fight Chad Dawson and not really be outweighed that much on fight night.

I bet there was a suggested catchweight. Most likely at 150.5 pounds and team Cinnamon Bun rejected the offer. It is an opportunity that he should take if he ever wants to have a chance at fighting the champ. Even at 154 pounds, Mayweather beats Alvarez.

But with that said....... moving up to 154 AGAIN and fighting Canelo who would weigh 172-175 come fight is stupid.
Floyd sales 1million PPV with whoever he fights so he doesn't need Canelo and doesn't have to fight guys who are 20-25lbs heavier.
So what he fought Delahoya and Cotto at 154? He gave the fans those super fights at those guys weights.
If Canelo wants Floyd then come to 147. Or maybe 150
Ward made Dawson come to him at 168.

Ok so Canelo weighed 172 his last fight on fight night.
