    Hell no he wasn't the guy had a loss and two draws and was never as good as PBF. PBF beats any version of #48 better and more complete.

    In terms of skill, Mayweather is cut out of the same cloth as Trinidad, DLH, Mosley, Quartey... but speaking of heart, not on their level.

    Yes he's the best in this era, which is a great accolade, but of we are to be honest, this era is garbage compared to 90, 80, and 70s.

    PBF beats any version of #48 and PBF has always been the quicker fighter. PBF has better reflexes so I don't know what you're talking about here.:deal

    PBF ducked a prime Pacman, that's what I'm talking about.

    No he didn't it was #48 who declined to fight PBF back in 2009 because of testing. Roach has even admitted the reason why the fight didn't happen back then was because of them not wanting to do testing the interview has been posted here numerous times do a search.

    4 out of every 5 threads have the potential to turn into a May-Pac garbage thread apparently. Just move on people!

    They probably won't push for it either way, but if Canelo wins the WBC will bow down to Canelo's wishes in give him any exception or exemption he wants. Bank of that.

    I believe Canelo will win...he has been in some tough bouts since Floyd schooled him. Lara was a difficult fight, not dangerous but difficult. Trout and Angulo are respectable opponents and Kirkland at least had thr POTENTIAL to land a big punch.

    Remember, Alvarez is still a kid and IMO is improving with every fight. Cotto's best days are behind him.....

    Can I ask a serious question here?.................

    If neither Cotto or Canelo are REAL middleweights as you claim & should not be expected to have to fight GGG ? How is it they are sanctioned to fight each other for the supposed lineal Middleweight Championship of the World ???
    Isn't this rather hypocritical?? GGG is regarded by most boxing experts as the uncrowned champion why isn't he fighting for the title???
    Miguel Pretty in Pink Cotto would take a knee while the referee is giving instructions more than likely against GGG. Supposed champions ducking their legitimate challengers is getting to be a habit isn't it?? I wonder who started that ??? HMMMMMMMM!!!!
