    Canelo is huge. It would be a light heavyweight fighting a big WW. Skill for skill mayweather school's him.

    Canelo has clearly made progress, but I still think he still needs the development of another fight or two before Mayweather becomes a realistic target for him.

    First off, he needs to improve that stamina and fix his tendency to get too aggressive and lunge in. Floyd will eat that up if Canelo shows up making those mistakes.

    Are you referring to the ominous shadow of WBC President Jose Suliman?

    I don't want Floyd to wait any longer if its to be. This year, if at all. It would be an incredible win, and topple Oscar's single fight record pay day ****in easily.

    They should have a clause in the contract saying Canelo can't go above 165

    Ortiz was taking Mayweather's shots well(outside of a check hook) with 8 oz gloves.

    Canelo weighed 8 lbs more with bigger gloves lol. He's a much bigger man. All props to Floyd if he wins, but I would have Canelo as a favorite.

    It would be a great win, or an understandable loss. Either way, Mayweather wins.

    If its now Canelo only just loses, A little nearer the end of that 6 fight contract and Lil Floyd loses that 0. Floyd is gonna be ducking for apples though.

    No he wasn't:

    The 10oz gloves would indeed hurt Mayweather. But, Saul can't fight all 3 minutes of a round, so all Mayweather has to do is make him miss and pot shot him.

    "Canelo is too green hasn't proved himself!"

    "Cenelo doesn't have a name and a following. Not enough PPV Numbers!"

    After defeating Trout

    "yo yo yo son! He's too big Money May shouldnt fight him" :lol:


    I love the excuses from these Floyd Nuthuggers

    He never had Ortiz seriously hurt(buzzed once)

    It doesn't matter because Floyd isn't the type to push the pace and make Canelo gas.
