    How would anyone know that. lol

    No one knows who's used PEDs or not, people guess who they think has, but no one truly knows.

    Canelo actually has what it takes to beat Floyd. Power, Speed, Size, Defense, and Boxing skill

    Bradley is inferior to Manny in every department but defense

    Also, Floyd won more convincingly

    Who the hell said Bradley would beat him? Again why is it being brought up?

    And of course Floyd beat him he was a 3-1 favorite or did you miss that ?

    No what I'm saying is Bradley who is more proven than Canelo and ranked higher p4p was a better win than against a green Canelo that's what I'm saying !

    If you can provide me as to who did Canelo beat that makes him better than Bradley who holds wins over Providnikov,Marquez and Alexander I'm all ears !

    We're excluding you, the one person on the planet who thinks Bradely would actually beat Canelo.

    Pacquiao was a 1/3 favorite against Bradely, so whats your point?

    Like I said, im not talking about some theoretical p4p nonsense. Im talking about ACTUAL fights and ACTUAL fighters.

    Floyd went up and beat a guy who outweighed him by 15 lbs. It would be like Mikey Garcia going up and beating Danny Garcia in his next fight.

    Are you actually saying that Pacquiao beating Canelo wouldnt be more of a shock than Pacquiao beating Bradley???

    Because if thats what you're saying, Im speechless and dont want to continue.

    Floyd beat a tougher opponent, **** theoretical p4p rankings.

    Ergh. You're tiresome. Trout changed his tune afterwards but knew he'd been beaten on the night. If you weren't such a moron you'd realise that fights are broken down into rounds in the pro game and then effective punches are given considerably more weight.

    I'd wager I've forgotten more than you know about most things. Boxing being just one example. I've no agenda in this as I don't care if Canelo, mayweather and Pac all lose their next five fights and then get derided as overhyped. I've no emotional investment. Can you say the same?

    I think most people really do think floyd is an awesome boxer, we just get annoyed that he doesn't strive to test himself as he reverts back to "business" etc etc we just want him to fight Pac once, thats all, nothing crazy, if he wins he's the better boxer and we are all stoked that we got to see a great event.

    The fight would break records etc and he would earn more than he has ever earned so would make business sense, its just frustrating that the best fight out there for him he has avoided for a variety of reasons for like 6yrs.

    You can polish a turd but its still a turd.

    So you think clean fighters would say 'extra blood test to prove I'm not using PEDs? **** you I'm not doing that...' If someone told me they think I'm cheating on Fight Night, I would do whatever reasonable thing they want to prove I'm not.. I defiantly wouldn't tell on them...

    Now Pac has tax issues he suddenly wants the fight.
    If Mayweather wants the fight, it is his and Pac will take the test.
    Well played Floyd. Well played.

    uh, excuse me but is Freddy forgetting about the little cut that wouldn't heal? Or the great magical arena that Arum had to build first for the fight? Or Manny being afraid of needles, or superstitious, etc?

    I believe everyone that's involved with this fight is to blame for it not happening.. What I hate setting is how at the very least Floyd takes 99% of the blame.. Then they bash his whole life like his existence on this earth is a burden on the world.. They downplay his accomplishments as if every fight he wants or wanted will happen when he says, despite what the circumstances are.. Every fight he fought he won, but every fight he fought, someone has a reason why and its never because he is too good.. It's because the other guy sucked, a bum, drained, old, past his prime, not Pac...ect

    "On our side, I think Bob wants that fight to be our last fight," Roach said.


    This was a quote from the Roach this past weekend. If you go to yahoo sports article...it is still up.

    The kicker is I like Bradley, hes a fine fighter. Great resume.

    I remember seeing him first back when he fought Witter.

    It was a fine win for Pac.

    It is NOT however the same as Floyd going up and beating Canelo.

    That was a FAR tougher proposition.

    Alvarez, JMW Lineal/unified champion, consensus #1 JMW
    Bradley, WW WBO titlist, consensus #2 WW

    Fight night weights:
    Mayweather- 150
    Pacquiao- 151

    Mayweather would have almost certainly won 10 rounds off of Bradley from April 12th.
    Pacquiao would have probably been KO'd by the Alvarez from September 14th.

    Both great wins. Slight edge to Mayweather/Alvarez. Lets not act like beating Bradley two days ago was as significant as beating him when he was the beast heading into the Alexander fight at JWW. W over Bradley at JWW would be > W over Bradley 4/12/14. EDIT: I think people are choosing to forget this as if giving Alvarez his proper dues in this threads' question somehow insinuates he has had a better career than Bradley, which is not the case. But the difference in the quality of in-ring victories had over each of them, at that moment of their career, and at which particular division the bouts were contested all favor Mayweather/Alvarez.

    Look at these *****s who are digging up past issues.. Its settled people. Pac agreed to everything now. Floyd has a new demand again.
