    Is your stupid ass honestly saying that Cotto was a better fighter at 154 after the beatings he took from Pacquiao, Margarito?...and the wars he had against Judah and Torress? Cotto was clearly at his best when he first moved to 147 and didn't have to kill himself anymore to make 147...since he's been at 154 his best win was against feather fisted Yuri Foreman who actually hurt Cotto a couple times. Take Cotto's nuts outta your ****in mouth and open your eyes.

    Why the hell would he do that when he has no intention of staying at 154. Does that really make any sense to bulk up just to turn around and try to lose muscle. He'll end up getting KTFO like Roy Jones when he goes back down in weight.

    Yes, because the first thing that pops into my head when I see Mayweather fight is "Geez, this guy needs to get in shape"...

    Leonard Ellerbe is the best strength and conditioning coach in the world? That's news to me. What other fighter has he worked with to help win championships other than Floyd? That's like saying Roger Mayweather is the best trainer in the world cause he's worked with Floyd...yet you can't name one champion that he has built from the ground up and molded into a champion. Some of you guys are such fanboys it's unbelievable.
    :patschShilstone has helped several champions successfully put on weight without losing their physical advantages....and I'm not saying Floyd should add a bunch of muscle like Roy did to move to heavyweight... I just said he should pack on maybe 5-7 pounds of solid muscle. It's not gonna kill him to make 147 again because he wouldn't be adding much weight and jumping up 2 weight divisions like Jones did and then moving back down.

    Floyd has to fight at 147 after this fight anyways no reason to put on extra muscle you have to take off later

    we already know that Canelo is drained to the hilt at 154 lbs

    Thats a fact cause he bloats 22lbs over night

    fact !


    Proof he is drained unless you think he eats that much meat the night after the weigh in.

    Now he has to do even more, theres only so much water in the body

    Draining down 25lbs overnight is dangerous and weakens a man, this is a fact if you dont think so try and do it FFS

    the fact that he is 22 years old makes it worse his body is growing right now


    This is a ***** move by mayweather- this fight means nothign if he wins and a disgrace if he loses

    Floyd even stated these points himself !!

    If what you're saying about Canelo and his weight range is correct, then the onus is on him to not be fighting at 154. Maybe he should be fighting at 160 or even 175.

    So, don't blame Mayweather for the weight at which Canelo says he's comfortable fighting. If he's not being truthful or realistic to himself like you're implying, then the end blame and joke is on him, not on Floyd at all.

    Or would you rather not want to see the fight? Or, even more ridiculous, have the fight made at 160, since Canelo has to cut 22 lbs @154, according to you?
