    Again. Manny psychically is not as big as Floyd ??And it didn't stop Floyd from winning there because look who he fought ! Bradley is a much better boxer and a much tougher opponent than a green Canelo ! Who is also more proven in the ring !

    You keep thinking Canelo is the better win ,no one but yourself believes that !

    As good? Canelo, Del La Hoya, Hatton, Mosley, Marquez. Looks like this thread failed big time. LMAO

    Unless it's someone easy like Margarito. Other than him, he's too small. At least Mayweather fought arguably the best guy at JMW. Which lets face it, fighting Alvarez at 152 is a harder fight than Bradley at WW for both Floyd and Pac.

    How is he not as big as Floyd. Floyd was 150 fight night against Canelo.

    Pac was 151 fight night against Bradley.

    Uh again just because he's bigger that didn't make him better ! It's all about who you fight not what you fight ! And Canelo has never looked good against decent comp ! His hype didn't make him a better fighter than Bradley no matter how you try to spin it !

    Well since Khan has to participate in Ramadan during September, that effectively puts him out of the Mayweather sweepstakes for this fall (thankfully, since Khan doesn't deserve a shot anyway.)

    The only 2 fights I want to see FLoyd fight this September are against Manny or the winner of Cotto-Martinez. I'd favor him quite heavily in either of those matchups (well Martinez might actually be a tough fight depending on how much he actually has left in the tank.)

    Canelo = catchweight fight according to Floyd those dont count as wins.
    De La Hoya = way past his best part time fighter.
    Hatton= The most overrated fighter of the last decade, not beat at his best weight.
    Mosley = Mosley was shot to pieces, he was so old he was sitting on a rocking chair between rounds.
    Marquez= Another catchweight fight those dont count according to Duckweather.

    Bradley >>>>>>>>>>>> Anything on Duckweather's resume.

    I think both parties are at fault for the fight not happening.

    Manny not being lenient with the testing and allowing to be tested UP UNTIL THE DAY OF THE FIGHT. This is something that i think should be a universal protocol in boxing.

    And FLoyd is partly at fault because he let his ego/arrogance get in the way of the fight happening. Many people in his team say his biggest issue when it comes to negotiations is he cares WAY TOO MUCH what other fighters stand to make against him monetarily. He's a shrewd businessman in the same mode as the great Sugar Ray Robinson, who was notorious for being very hard to negotiate with and would drop out of fights the night before an event if he didn't think he was getting a big enough cut of the radio/TV share, gate money, etc.

    I can understand FLoyd's thought process though, as he is the cash cow and the clear # 1 P4P fighter in the sport. I just wish both parties would've shown a bit of leniency to give the fans what they want.

    I don't believe for a second that either fighter is scared to fight each other. This is the problem when you have 2 of the best fighters of our generation trying to put a fight together. There's always going to be obstacles for a superfight of this magnitude to get made.

    They ARE the same physical size!

    Floyd has a little reach advantage and height, but nothing outside the norms of what you usually get between fighters in the same division.

    They both fight at THE EXACT SAME FIGHTING WEIGHT!

    They both get in the ring at about 150.

    If you put the Canelo in the ring with Bradley,it would be a massacre. So HOW can Bradley be a better win????

    You put a "green" Canelo in the ring with Bradley and it probably doesnt go 6 rounds.

    Also "look at who he fought"???

    A title holding ODLH,
    A title holding Cotto
    A unified champ Alvarez

    Yeah...bunch of bums.
