This according to Reynoso: "Floyd wants every advantage on his side. Among one of the things that is being stressed is that he wants Canelo at a lower weight. Why would I make my boy sacrifice so much? We proposed an intermediate weight for this things to be level for both but he refused. Yes we want to fight but that does not mean Mayweather will get everything he wants"
Still can't find a single source(reliable or not) confirming or discussing this topic. Nothing has come out from Mayweather's mouth nor any of the people surrounding him yet we have over 10 threads here of people claiming this is the case. With that said, who the hell is Reynoso and since when was he relevant in discussions like these?
Same kind of thing comes out before all Mayweather fights. Gets people talking, and passionate about the topic.
Correct me if I'm wrong, when Mayweather fought ODH, ODH had say over the ring size, gloves and put restrictions on how heavy FM came in at. I believe FM could'nt come in under 150, in hopes this would make FM slow enough so ODH could keep up with him and slow him down in the later rounds. Nobody says anything about that. People have the nerve to say ODH won that fight, laughable! Sugar Ray Leonard put outragous demands on La Londe and people consider him an ATG but, when FM does it he's a cherry picken chicken. Double standards run rampent on this sight. Now, I think it's wrong to put extra demands on other fighters just to make a fight happen. The only things that should be negociated are the venue, weight, gloves, ring size and money. Stop the maddness, and let s get ready to rumble!!!!!
Floyd has fought at 154 2x while Canelo has many fights at 147 so is it Floyd's job to give Canelo the advantage? People doesn't seem to mind for Floyd to scarfice his. With that said... i think they should do a catchweight of 151.
