    4 **** that lets get back to just the WBC,IBF,and WBA **** the WBO ,but they are all bogus ..I mean just in this paragraph alone you named two champs per title.

    2 for the WBC and 2 for the WBA ..Trout and Alvarez are the 2 best in the division right now that's how it use to work..They fight the winner is ranked # 1 and should be considered the man in the division and their belts should reflect that ..All this super crap is just that crap !

    I'm fine with this. If you want to tell me that the winner of the fight is the man to beat in the division, that's perfectly ok. Just don't sit up here and call it a unification bout. Trout is a good fighter, but he's not a champion.

    I'm not the only one calling it unification ..But I'm cool with the winner being the man to beat at 154 ..There seriously needs to be a undisputed champ.

    Probably too grown for that kind of thinking. Can't think of a fighter he "avoided." I remember when he "avoided" Mosley. The fighters people think he avoided are probably on Top Rank. Just a guess.

    I agree but then why is May opening his mouth? Don't tell them, you are willing and then back off. Keep your word.

    Ok so I'm assuming you think he has never avoided boxers. That argument is old. I've heard all sides. I'm convinced that May picks fights to his advantage.

    Hmm I'm guessing I was right re: Top Rank boxers. Anyone else?

    I doubt he said he'd fight him no matter what. It was probably said that they'd fight should they get past their bouts. Common sense here. What is your problem exactly?

    So is that an excuse? If it wasn't possible, then why were they negotiating. I understand that it can be tough at times but when guys want to fight, they make them happen.

    My problem? You wrote to me. I was simply explaining what Canelo said on ESPN. He spoke about the negotiations.

    That's why people make contracts. The contract could have stated that they would fight ONLY IF BOTH WIN. It's not that hard. Problem is that Mayweather said he agreed and even did the WHOLE CONTRACT. So you're going to make a contract, verbally agree and then back off? That's the problem. So people claiming that Canelo was "demanding" May for the fight is false. Now that doesn't make sense. Canelo knows he can't demand ****. He was just pursuing what May had agreed upon. He never signed though. Now if you choose not to believe this, that's another story. That's just what he said. Like always, there's two sides to a story.

    It's hard to say for me whether Floyd is looking for an excuse to not fight or Canelo or if he's genuinely offended by Canelo's demands. I think at this point the young guy doesn't have the tools to beat Floyd so Floyd should pick while the picking is good.
