    Stephen A. said that he heard from the Mayweather camp that Canelo's team was the one to suggest a catchweight. Anyone think this **** is true?

    Who knows? The truth will probably never come out.

    I was thinking Stephen A. was full of ****. Why would Canelo's team come out of nowhere and be the ones suggesting a catchweight? It would be beyond ****ing stupid. I already said Canelo was stupid for accepting any form of catchweight, though. Floyd better not be trying to re-write history.

    Can't we all be happy this is happening at all?

    Its the biggest fight in boxing, 2lbs south of the 154lbs limit or not. It's still the biggest possible fight.. and we should be thankful for it happening.

    Maybe Floyd really did say for the fight to be at 147 as a negotiating ploy and then Canelo's team countered with the catchweight

    Canelo needs the payday. He probably did suggest it and Floyd jumped right on it.
