    And LOL at you boosting Ortiz. The guy's record against top 10 level comp is 1-1-3, that's pathetic. Did you know his only decent win ever came at a catchweight he requested? :lol:

    Canelo should shrink his head to make 150

    See my earlier post, I said make the fight, but morons like you will only find excuse to discredit Canelo and then call him a cherrypick

    :lol: wtf does Pacquiao or any other fake/paper champion have to do in this case?
    I'm less a fan of his match making than PBF's, so don't make assumptions.
    If Floyd decides not to fight Canelo, fine, no worries.
    It wouldn't be because of a mismatch, but a brutal process he simply wouldn't want to put himself through.
    I still believe Floyd wins. Only not getting away without proper punishment.

    Just for the record, Pacquiao fought Margarito when he was outweight by 17 pounds and he wasn't bothered.

    Catchweights are beneath Floyd Mayweather.

    An ortiz and balodmir had 13 and 14lbs on Floyd. But 22 is pushing it.

    Nontheless Canelo actually has speed, skills, punching power, defense, slickness. Margarito moves like he has weight on his ankles, throws slow ass arm punches and blocks everything with his face. Hardly comparable.

    True, but Marg's #1 strength is Canelo's #1 vulnerability: unrelenting pressure and workrate + awesome durability (Canelo ?)

    So you would be ok with catch weight of 150 and a re hydration clause of 10lbs ?

    But if Mayweather's the greatest of all time as he said he his surely he'll smoke Canelo
