    His stamina is already shaky so i guess it'll be worse. He couldnt beat floyd at the full limit anyway

    wont be the same uh? how u say?? u think he lost the fight already before he stepped in the ring because of 2 pounds. nothing he can do in training to help him win?? I wish Canelo can see this so he can slap you!!

    Canelo is gonna bring like never before. all of Mexico behind, on his day, Mayweather better be ready. once Mayweather feels on of those body shots then its gonna be a classic!

    I, and most "floyd haters" are fine with a catchweight. If 2 fighters from differant weights want to fight, it is what is often required to make the fight the public want to see.

    However alot of posters on this board have ridiculed catchweights for the last 4 years, these same posters are now ok with this catchweight because its with floyd.

    What are your favourite reasons why this catchweight isn't the same as Manny's catchweights?

    Turbotime
    "Manny has more than 2 catchweights numpty. He also holds the catchweight title. Floyd only has 1"

    MVC "Floyd could beat him at 154, but he just wanted a psychological to show canelo he doesn't make the demands" and "These 2lbs will make canelo quicker, sharper, a better fighter than at 154"

    buckdacious "This catchweight will help Canelo get in the best shape of his life" and "who cares about a catchweight, it doesn't make any differance, floyd whups him anyway"


    mrjotatp4p "Stop taking it so serious, we were only joking, we like catchweights really" and "It was to teach him a lesson for ditching on the Guerrero Undercard"

    Dangerousity "If cutting an extra 2lbs is gonna kill Canelo, well then he's too big to be fighting at 154 in the first place"

    Sweet D-Willy: "Floyd is a natural 154-pounder, so he's draining himself too."

    Floyd: "Canelo requested the catchweight."


    There are many more i'm sure. Can we share please as they make me laugh.

    Best reasons why Floyds Catchweight is differant to everyone elses.

    Sorry just dont believe this .

    The fight has been made too quickly for there to have been any major hold ups.

    I'm looking forward to it. And i'm just happy the fight was made.

    Canelo might be able to lose the weight succesfully and look no differant to his other fights.

    However its not guaranteed. He already kills himself to make 154, now he has to make 152.

    And if it made no differance, why would floyd ask for it, please explain?
    Especially after Floyd saying that other fighters losses don't cout because they had to fight at a catchweigh.

    What's so hard to believe. There were some reports that Floyd only wanted the fight at 147. The realization that his last PPV number took a dive smacked some reality into all those associated with this fight and some decisions had to be made.

    Because Floyd is black and American so that makes it OK.

    Most people who come on here are black and American.

    Does believing you are the last sane person on the planet make you crazy?

    Schaefer to Floyd:

    "SHUT UP BOY YOU WORK FOR ME!!! And if you DO shut up, and you DO work for me, I'll make you more money that you ever DREAMED of."
