    Canelo is a genuine LMW. Floyd is top 2 in that weight class.


    It is a good fight. Weight will not be a factor.

    Nothing ***** about it. It's just fact. For example, if Canelo went up to fight JCC Jr. at 160 he would be outweighed by 20 pounds on fight night. Which is ****ing ridiculous. Canelo is more skilled than JCC but would be at a huge disadvantage because of the weight as it would be in PBF-Canelo and you have to factor in age as well. Weight plays a factor quit downplaying its significance.:deal
     
  5. Well since Mayweather is always calling himself the greatest of all time, the greatest of this era, the top dog, a god-gifted athlete, pound for pound best fighter in the world, 43 have tried 43 have failed, blablablablabla, why should he have any problems with facing a freckle faced kid.
    Yea he'll be outweighed by 20-25 pounds but if you're gonna call yourself the greatest of all time then you gotta do things normal fighters don't do. otherwise floyd needs to stfu.

    Stop being such a ****ing Punk *****, Old Ass Bernard Hopkins moved up in weight fighting younger bigger guys.....

    This is the difference right here, Hopkins is a real fighter a true legend, Money May is a product of good match making a good promoting, Hopkins fought his way to where he is today thats why he is respected, while Floyd was backed by networks and promoters who fabricated a so called great.

    **** using age as an excuse, **** using size as an excuse it makes dollars it makes sense right?
    you sit here and talk size yet Floyd is fighting a light weight for crying out loud.

    Dumb ass post. By that logic, Canelo, who is considered a rising star and the future of boxing can't call himself that until he fights somebody who weighs 192 on fight night. Gotta do things normal fighters don't right.

    Please list where Hopkins fought a guy 20lbs bigger than him.


    Mayweather began his career at 130. Or did you forget that?

    Mayweather has already moved up several divisions dumb ****. Stop acting like he started his career at WW. Guerrero is bigger than Floyd. Floyd is one of the only fighters currently who belongs in the weight class thats he's in. Everybody else is in the business of draining to fight in lower weight classes, and then ballooning 15-20lbs after the weigh in.

    PBF started at 130. So what's your point again?:deal PBF is already maxed out at 147. He's never looked great at 154 his 5th weight class I might add. Hopkins fought at 160 and was a big MW. He moved to 175 his more natural weight class. Holla at me when Canelo starts fighting guys at 175 when he's 36 then we can talk.

    You mean Floyd was young and had the ability at one point to drain himself down to 130....
    DLH moved up and fought Hopkins as well for **** sakes and Oscar started that low two...

    But we get your point, Floyds a ***** and you fully back and support him being one
