    Because he's the one thats issued the challenge. Don't challenge a fighter and make bull**** conditions. You want to fight a light middleweight, fight at light middleweight.

    Simple answer to that is if the guy is too big for you, don't make the challenge.

    Mayweather fans actually want to see him take on a totally drained Canelo? Don't you want to see Floyd take the man on at his best?

    Maybe after he beats anorexic Canelo he can call Sergio out and bring him down to welter.

    And that's totally fine. Remember, Floyd if the P4P #1 :roll:

    thread title should be changed to mayweather doesnt want canello

    if he did he would have no problem fighting him at 154, ****ing *****
     
  7. Yet he fought Cotto @ 154 because he "wants to face the best Miguel Cotto"

    When will people realize Mayweather doesn't take challenges ? Its why he waited until both Cotto and Mosley were faded, avoided Pacqiuoa, Margarito, Tyszu, Casamayor, Freitas and a few others. Couldn't even be arsed to lose a few pounds just so he could have even more of an advantage over Marquez.

    I don't remember ever seeing Mayweather calling out Canelo, but have seen Canelo calling out Mayweather several times?

    If Danny Garcia moved up to 147lbs to fight Mayweather, Floyd is the ***** for making Garcia move up and he should have gone down to 140lbs or a catch weight. But when Mayweather is in Garcias position.....Floyd is still the *****?

    Let me be clear, I would rather see the fight at 154lbs, and outside of the fight being at 154lbs it doens't interest me at all, and this is the only interesting fight for Mayweather right now......I just don't think you can accuse Mayweather or ducking, being a ***** and a disgrace for not taking a fight at 154lbs.

    I don't. I call him those things for trying to bring a man down to a weight he can't possibly make. That's being a *****.

    utter bollocks from floyd if true. The man ****ing holds a title at 154. No excuses for this fight not to happen. Canelo is desperate for it.

    100% yes. Him not facing Chad at 175lbs was ridiculous IMO.

    So go down to 147 if you want it so bad.

    I wouldn't blame him for not taking the fight at 154 but I would blame him wanting to take the fight at 147. If Alvarez is too big for him
    then fair enough,

    Dawson called him out and said "I will come to 168 I can make 168 no problem"
