Nice to see Mayweather taking on Canelo

I know I'm critical of Floyd, but I do like that he made the Canelo fight and didn't listen to the bull**** that Canelo is to big. Floyd is so much better then Canelo, the 15-20lbs of extra weight ain't gonna do **** for Canelo. The catch weight doesn't bother me, just like it didn't bother me with the Cotto/Pac, Margarito/Pac, and Ward/Dawson fight. Always been my opinion that if a fighter only has to lose a couple pounds it should just mean he will be in better shape. Canelo looked like he took Trout lightly and came into the fight heavier then usual. This should at least assure that he is in good shape.

I think this will bring out the best in Mayweather, which is always good to see. Usually when a fighter has physical advantages over Floyd, that's when you see him really opening up. Victor Ortiz was bullying him, and we saw shades of vintage Floyd with the combos he was throwing. I expect no less in this fight. Canelo is young, and very untested but he at least brings a physical advantage and style that will make this interesting. I just hope it doesn't hurt his career to much when he loses. He is still young and can still continue to fight, but we all know how a loss seems to effect a good majority of fighters these days.

All and all, I give Floyd props. I do think Canelo is young and unproven, but he is a much better opponent then Guerrero. I still blame Mayweather for some fights not happening in the past, but it's good to see he is willing to take on Canelo when he has guaranteed money and could probably fight whoever he wanted. Props.

-ps- Styles makes fights. Would still love to see Pac vs Floyd.

 

I would agree the weight would be an issue if Canelo was the caliber of Martinez or Ward. Canelo is not anywhere near those 2 skill wise and Mayweather is on a much higher level then Canelo. The only thing that extra weight will do is make Floyd open up more, which is what I have missed from him. He showed it in the Ortiz fight.

 

It was bs that the 154lb championship was on the line, but I don't think it was a big deal. Cotto asked for a catch weight with Margarito in the rematch also, which I found odd. Margarito didn't look drained to me like he did in the Mosley fight.

 

I know you wish I was Popkins, and I'm sorry that I'm not. Hate to say, that Floyds stupid ass fans are the reason people are critical of him. Most of ya'll were the ones crying that Canelo was to big for Floyd. Of course, ya'll will be happy now but thank god Floyd didn't listen to the bs ya'll were spitting.

 

Mayweather will not stop Canelo. The man hasn't had a legit knockout since Hatton. He will put on a clinic though.

 

I think anyone who knows anything about boxing wanted to see Pac vs Floyd because of the styles. If you can't see how that would make an interesting fight then that's fine. Canelo has size that makes it interesting. Pac brought much more, but we never got to see the fight.

This is why I hate *****s so much. Not only do they have a hard time seeing the truth in anything, they whine about how Cotto was drained but you hear nothing about the Canelo catch weight. Neither one bothers me, but they call Pac the catch weight king, while Mayweather gets a free ride. *****s.....

 

When did I say he needs to fight Pac next? I said I would still like to see the fight just because of the styles. Man, *****s are as sensitive as Floyd. I said I like that Floyd is fighting Canelo and that he will put on a clinic and you start whining about Pac. Feel like I'm watching a Mayweather rant. Move along *****
