    boring fight compared to canelo.

    wouldn't mind if mayweather was fighting a bit more often.

    really underwhelmed by this. :roll:

    Alvarez and Martinez are to Mayweather now what Cotto and Margarito were circa 2007.

    Oh great, another one dimensional, Mexican quantity puncher for Mayweather to look good against

    At least Canelo would make it an intriguing and exciting fight

    But we know for sure that Guerrero is just going to get brutalized; he has the perfect style for Mayweather.

    Even though Martinez is a 160 pound fighter, and Alvarez is a 154 pound fighter..?

    Floyd Mayweather is a 147 pound fighter.

    How come Manny Pacman did not have to face Alvarez & Martinez..?

    Great points but it won't stop the May haters

    Also, Canelo will be a Middlweight this time next year too

    Who's a better opponent, Guerrero or Rios..?

    Looks like Manny Pacman is facing Brandon Rios.

    Why Laz? I think he's got as much right as any other fighter at the moment. It admirable the way he has risen through the divisions and seemingly improved as he's got heavier. If my memory serves correctly he wasnt exactly favoured against Berto and deserves massive respect for what he's achieved thus far in his career. You may not like everything that comes out of his mouth but hey i can think of a good few other fighters who are far worse if you catch my drift;)

    No, PK. Guerrero is the better all round fighter and deserves the shot MUCH more. Rios is a little killer against the right style for him and a similar level fighter to himself, but against the elite skilled fighters he would be in over his head. They need to keep putting him in with certain types of opponents to keep giving us fun fights.

    He has serious problems with east, west movement. Put a jab in his face with good lateral movement and he looks like he's seen an alien. The first time i realised Rios would have serious problems with movement was when he fought a journeyman, basically a club fighter by the name of Omri Lowther, man i couldn't believe how confused Rios looked in the first couple of rounds against such a limited, overmatched opponent, all because of a little west, east movement. Fast forward a few years and he clearly loses to a replacement, hand picked opponent in Richard April in one of the worst robberies of the year.

    For whats out there right now. Mayweather/Guerrero is not THAT bad a fight. Guerrero is no joke, PK. The kid can fight and will give Floyd a good rumble. But will ultimately come up short.

    I know that Guerrero is better man, i just wanted people to response stating why, to kind of drum my point home. I have watch Rios fight before, and switched off the fight after afew rounds.

    I watched his fight against April who is a ok fighter technically..? but is a weak individual.

    I have seen nobody criticise Manny Pac for facing Brandon Rios, i am not saying they should..? But its just interesting.

    Floyd Mayweather is in a lose/lose situation, no matter who he fights.

    Guerrero would probably beat Pacman, joining the list of multiple fighters who i think would beat him down these days.

    If Floyd Mayweather fought Bradley he would also be criticised.

    Why hasn't nobody called for Manny Pac to fight Alvarez or Martinez..?
