    Read my last post.

    I don't think Bradley or Canelo stands much of chance, but I think Bradley is a better estabished fighter at this point in time.

    btw, who said Floyd's fighting Canelo at 154?

    You are acting like Canelo just turned professional last year.

    Im assuming 154 because, Canelo is young and moved up for obvious reasons, and it'd probably be for his WBC title.

    No but he clearly has a lot to learn, and he's not ready for floyd. Lets just be honest about this he has no chance. Size isn't enough, and height-reach wise , he's hardly bigger then Floyd if at all. Floyd will just play around with him. As for the weight, we can't say for sure what weight it'll be at. Floyd wanted Martinez at 150 so who knows what he'll ask for.

    btw, if Floyd's ok with 154, he should be fighting Cotto not Alvarez.

    Canelo will not take this fight @ 147, he is too big to make that weight comfortably.

    He's a better fight than Bradley for Pac.

    Considering, if anything Mayweather is going up to fight a bigger fighter.

    While Pac is going to fight another guy he's going to make move up again.

    Weren't you arguing that May 5th is only good for Mexican fights?

    Although Bradley fights at 140, he comes in the ring heavier than Pac does at 147. What advantage would Pac have as far as size goes?

    Good fights. Pac has a tougher assignment. Bradley is very experience, skilled, quick, good chin, smart, and versatile. bradley also at this point in time mentally ready for a fight of this level. Pac can possibilly lose this fight on points. While floyd is fighting canelo who's only advantage is youth and size. Canelo has fought nothing but B level fighters and just doesn't have the experience to compete with floyd. I can just see canelo mentally declining and his morale declining lower and lower every round he can't KO floyd.

    You should also remember Gomez was out-boxing Canelo! :lol:

    Why would you be worried about Canelo's health? :think What's Floyd gonna do? UD him to death? Or do you think Floyd will sucker punch KO Canelo? :rofl

    Until its announced by a source that I can verify, like ESPN, Yahoo! Sports, or even just Boxrec. I'll wait. The Author cites nothing and has doesn't even have a last name.

    Mayweather should destroy him, its a bad match up for Canelo. However, the fight will likely be huge due to both of them being big draws. It should certainly make more money than Pac-Bradley which Mayweather will use as leverage for gaining for a potential fight with Pac.
