    I lost 15lb of muscle I cant fight at 154lb.
    I demand 20oz pillow gloves.
    80-20% purse split and i kick you ass.
    the urge aint there.

    Oscar was just as big as Canelo, and Floyd made the fight.

    I think Floyd will just go ahead and fight him at 154, so strings attached.

    Unless theres a money issue.

    ^ That's why he shouldn't wait on Canelo to headline his own PPV.

    What? He fought Guerrero and Ortiz among others who have not headline their own PPV's and now Canelo would be an issue?

    Hes talking about the money issue.

    Id Canelo fights on his own big PPV, then he can demand more money.

    I'm referring to the Money. He will get Canelo at a cheaper price now rather than waiting for the kid to go do his own show and get a taste of it, thus further increasing his ego and asking price that will create money issues in negotiation.

    Ortiz and Guerrero are nothing compared to Canelo's budding popularity.

    The window for that fight is closing fast.

    A lot of his excuses to ruin the fight would make him look bad like weight issue, drug testing among others.

    Whatever demands Mayweather makes Alvarez, who needs the attention/payday this fight will bring, will most likely agree to. I just hope weight isn't the issue otherwise this fight is pointless.

    It's KO6. If Pacquiao fans are cancer, cabbies like you are aids.

    At what point do people on these board start giving Floyd abuse for not stepping up to fight Andre Ward..

    I have no real desire to see Mayweather v Canelo... Floyd isn't a 154lbs fighter, he is slow, sluggish & to small at the weight. Canelo will probably outweigh Floyd by 15lbs or 20lbs come fight night.

    It's bull**** but such is the desire to see Floyd lose you *******s will turn a blind eye to anything resembling common sense

    Floyd is as much a GBP fighter as anyone on their roster. Schaefer's blatant transparency that he is actively trying to put this specific fight together, that it's their No. 1 priority, everyone wants it, etc. gives me optimism it'll get done. GBP wouldn't have anything to gain by making Floyd look bad. With the Pacquiao negotiations, there was Bob Arum in the way. This is basically in-house.

    Are floyd fans the only set of boxing fans in history that are terrified of seeing there favorite fighter losing?

    Most people just want to see competitive fights.

    Floyd vs the current 147 crop isn't competetive.

    Floyd vs Alvarez is.

    That's why people want it. You got to pay $70 for a floyd fight, the least we can ask for is you pick someone who'll provide a challenge.

    If there was a Challenge at 147, then people would demand that, its only because the only challenge around happens to be at 154

    canelo is a 154. i am 147.
    canelo is not on mayweather promotions. he is on a different company.
    canelo wants to much money. i am willing to give him 10 $.
    canelo is on roids, because he is big and strong.
    canelo makes no sense. the great alexander is a much better opponent.
