    You're a fan of a B+ fighter. Cotto has never beaten an elite fighter. Can't beat Pac, Mayweather. Cotto's biggest win is another B+ fighter in Shane Mosley who has 50% record since 2001.

    When Floyd beat Canelo, haters are going to get on, the Canelo wasn't ready ride. Yahoo sports are already talking about Mayweather vs Ward, which sounds ridiculous. The truth is, when he beats Canelo, who else is there for him to fight?

    wow the guy on these forum are really crap, not the boxers the posters. the whole time people complained about Manny and his catch weights they were great fights. If Floyd does the same thing its a **** fight, this has got to be the worst. For me it a **** fight, because..........When Manny did it they were **** fights. Manny a big poo poo, Mayweather a little poo poo for now since this is his first catch weight that he called for.

    First of all, if Canelo is gonna be drained at 152 then he will be drained at 154 cause two pounds won't make or break him. The fact remains that come fight night he will be the bigger man. There is no built in excuses to exploit, just a bunch of whining. Mayweather is making sure that he's keeping this fight about a test of skills and he's not giving away advantages that might shift the balance. Who would. Regardless of what he said about catch weights, he is no dam fool. The man fights to win. As for Cotto being out of prime, I don't subscribe to that belief, If he was out of prime, so was Mayweather. Floyd is older than him and has had just as many fights.:bbb

    canelo actually still is not a proven/elite tested fighter. he does have one good win in trout.

    maybe he's good, maybe he's a fraud...who knows.

    the only thing going for him is his size and decent boxing skill against blown up and old and shot fighters.

    Oscar saying Floyd is the same is BS. oscar saying canelo is better than him in '07 is also BS. ALthough I dislike Floyd, he will F this kid up I believe and punish him throughout.

    Floyd is an irritating ****head, don't like him, don't like his fighting style. I liked Canelo from the first time I saw him. To me it would be awesome if Canelo beat the **** out of Floyd.
    My prediction; Floyd win UD 12 taking Canelo to boxing school.

    Alvarez has a good chance to win, even though I'm skeptical of him getting a decision over Floyd in Vegas. Canelo also has real stamina issues and Floyd is trying to exploit it by making him come down in weight. 2 pounds is a big deal. It's a hypocritical and cowardly move by chickenhead Floyd.

    im one of floyds biggest bashers and if he wins in the manner you described, i move him up a few slots on the atg list. all this bull**** about floyd not geting credit after he beats a guy, is just that, bull****. he gets the credit he deserves for the guys he beats. canelo is a real test and the odds are going to reflect that.

    No Asterisks. Take on the best at 154, FMJ, like you said you do. (not 152)
