Mayweather wants Canelo at 147lbs

Agreed, mate.

The difference in Mayweather's attitude towards Cotto and Canelo is why his actions can't be excused. When he's fighting a fighter years past his best, Mayweather wants them at their comfiest weight, so moves up to fight them. When fighting a young fighter who is at his peak, Mayweather wants them to drain.

It's just bull****. Why anyone would still believe Mayweather is beyond me. He's a proven liar, hypocrite and ducker.

 

For the record, I don't agree with Floyds stance to make Canelo boil down to 147.... But I also don't think he should just step up to 154 & fight Canelo at god knows what come fight night

 

Bang on.

 

When did Floyd Mayweather turn into a 40 years old tubby swiss man that love the passionate british boxing fans?

 

Don't take the ****ing fight then! 24 hour weigh ins have been around for ages, yeah it's a bit **** that some fighters pile on a lot of pounds but the rules allow that. Accept them or move on.

 

when did he issue the challenge??

 

Isn't that what he has done?

 

Rob you know very well that Floyd doesn't talk publicly about any potential opponents or ongoing negotiations. Fact is Schaefer and Espinoza have both said talks have been had about Floyd/Canelo. So it is a fight that both sides are pursuing at the moment.

 

This would be great but according to posters on here that would be Mayweather changing the rules and thats not ok!

 

No because he's asked Canelo to come down to 147. So he has not passed on the fight.

 

Lol clutching at straws a bit here.

 

Schaefer is Mayweather's co-promoter. If he says it's what Mayweather wants, it's as good as if it came out of Mayweather's mouth. These things are always discussed with Schaefer, Haymon and Floyd, so it's not some random comment.

 

Don't people give me allot of stick on here for making assumptions, only hearing one side of the story?

 

Rob you've been royally schooled on this thread.

And before you ask me to tell you where and issue a set of questions just read through it.

 

Floyd is really sluggish at 154 and Canelo is a animal at 154. That's the only reason people want to see the fight so much, people just want to see Floyd lose. Period.

If you challenge somebody, you meet their demands. Canelo is desperate for the Floyd fight, not the other way round.
