Because canelo was chasing him claiming id fight fmj at 150, for 2 years claiming 150. Fmj finally caved and said NO, you came in 153 vs trout we'll go at it at 152, ONE less pound than the weight he completely dominated, outclassed and put flat on his ass trout. Fmj was chasing odh, odh was the $$$ man, so fmj had to agree to everything, extra padded fl8fes, 10oz when fmj requested 8oz. Yes, anything above 147 are 10oz gloves UNLESS both parties agree to use 8oz. Fmj even requested for him and cotto to use 8oz BUT cotto said **** NO. One would think the "supposed" bigger punchers would jump at the chance to wear smaller less padded gloves. Makes on the haters theories total bull****. Fmj have canelo t h e extra 2 lbs, 152 instead of tge 150 team canelo were claiming they'd do for YEARS. Children, lets let logic sinc in. Canelo us an ELITE fighter, 152 (ONE lb less than his previous fight is very fair). When dealing witg the elite **** changes. Ggg being the greatest mw EVER and will go down as top 3 atg when all said and done, still wont **** with canelo at 155. Canelo is an ELITE fighter if the highest order. Ggg weakening himself by ko osing 5 lbs of nothing but muscle us beyond stupid and incompetent. Both elites, very top of the fighter food chain. Canelo is the wbc MW 160lb champ, ggg is the mandatory challenger. He does nothing except figh5 for the legit wbx 160 title at or around that weight. Canelo can come in at 155 if he feels better there but that's got nothing to do with what ggg weighs as long as its 160 or lower. Usually 158.5 to 159 which is perfect. Both canelo and ggg know they are the most dangerous fights in all of boxing dor each other. Im going to sut back and make a killing when ggg v kovalev is made. For every -minus ggg.comes in at ill throw 1k at it. 10/1 10k and it's guaranteed payout time. Easier money than maypac was because there was always the slight chance fmj could get old over night. After chino 1 fight, i thought that was him being sh I t, but com i ng back to win then win t ggg e rematch, while not being ktfo and t ggg rough the ropes with that vicious counter overhand right Chino landed. That only proved he has ggg like cast iron, such a brural ahot it took him all round 4 to recoup. Which ge did. Ggg is the only fighter ro this day that could beat fmj, and thats hypothetically making tgem naturally the same size. 2 of the 3 flat out tr euly special tr alwnrs no one alive, dead or yet to be born will ever see again. Tge 3rd is AJ, yada yada yada, he hasn't beaten any "names" yet. Trutg is whyte would run through the hw division like it's silly putty. Only fighters that COULD bwat whyte are if ciurs see e AJ, DW and possibly, but unlikely ortiz. Whyte will start desrroying every opponent until he gets back in mandatory status. AJ, DW, whyte and ortiz are the 4 horsemen. Wildcards, haye, Hughie and maybe parker. We have a couple up and comers that look the part but i have yet to see any if my questions askedasked yet. Time is on their side, tornado could be a coming
Leave the childish insults out of it Alabama man. He met him at 152 lbs, not 150 pounds. So I agree with you on the "things changing" statement. You stated in your earlier post that there is no proof of Canelo ever proposing a CW. The quote has been put in front of you that directly came from canelo's mouth. Now you're backtracking and trying to exhaust any excuse possible. The fact of the matter is Canelo proposed it and FLoyd kept him to his word. In the leadup to the fight (during All access,) Floyd made mention of only bringing him down to 152 lbs when Canelo stated he'd go all the way down to 150 lbs for him. So obviously FLoyd knew what Canelo had said about him earlier. He fought Trout the fight before at 153 lbs. SO let's not make this out to be some kind of severe weight draining situation. He came into the fight 1 lb less than he did with Austin Trout.
You do not quote stuff from 2011 for a fight that took place in 2013. Canelo never proposed a cw for 2013 fight, EVER. He even said so. usatoday. com/story/sports/boxing/2013/09/11/canelo-alvarez-floyd-mayweather-super-welterweight-152-pounds-catchweight/2802237/ Canelo tipped in 30 day weigh in at 167 lbs. GTFO here with your Trout garbage atschatsch
It's all about defending your belt against the contender who has earned mandatory status 👍🏼
Gold doesn't know **** about boxing. He's never seen the 130 pound version of PBF because he wasn't watching boxing back then.
So just disregard what he says because it doesn't fit your agenda and proves you wrong.:rofl You have a direct quote but you want to try and discredit it. You're a troll.
