    Not at all. A 150 catchweight is fair because of the circumstances in this fight.

    Floyd 36
    Floyd prison
    Floyd in active for a year
    Floyd 147 fight naturally

    Canelo being young and can make weight

    Fair IMO

    150 or 151 would make a great fight.

    This isn't Shawshank Redemption/Longest yard.

    There are no Red/Cheeseburger Eddies in prisons.

    He only had his fan mail, push ups, cookies/fruit bars to go about his day.

    He did not have access to commissary. Even if he did, it was very very strict. Doubt he got anything decent because if he did, why would he ask to leave?

    cant believe your justifying a catchweight. If all of those things are factor he shouldnt be fighting canelo at all.

    Like I said before, he has never even talked about a fight with Canelo. It's us fans that want it, Suliman, WBC, HBO who wants it.

    I'm just being objective here. Someone who thinks about the entire picture.

    You really think it's that easy going up to 154?

    He's a natural 147 and he's older now, came out of prison (life/death), 1 year of inactivity

    150 would be a fair catchweight.

    Due to Floyds status he would be a target he has money, I didnt have that status, plus sooner or later he would be tested, he would have to do dirt I dont see him doing that some of us didnt have a choice.

    Thats what he doesnt get....

    Exactly but hey who are we right?

    There is plenty of food you can buy or order. Protein bars, protein powders that mix instantly, jerky, noodles, a TON of food. if he didnt wanna eat it thats his problem. Three months is not a long enough time to atrophy.

    Though I agree 150 is fair, Canelo still untested, and Floyd had no problem allowing Cotto to come in at 54

    I get that fat is an important, who said I didn't? What isn't healthy is an overabundance of it and a lack of everything else.

    False once again, commissary was very strict (As he said). He wasn't even given BOTTLED water, what makes you think he was given access to protein powder/noodles/jerky/or anything of the sort.

    He was given cookies/fruit bars/greasy foods. That was also stated.

    Stop assuming things please. This is all documented. Everything I'm saying.

    Once again, false. That's one segment in 4 episodes of EACH HBO series that they show you. You really believe he eats mcd's/Burger king on a REGULAR basis? You MUST be joking.

    In addition, his crony (Sitting beside him) even said "I haven't seen you eat this much in a LONG TIME"

    The amount was honestly that of a normal sized french fries served at mcd's and a burger.

    You have no argument.

    There is Noodles there that is standard, you can order bottled water its not going to be Given to you, Floyd requested Bottled water from the staff of course he was going to be denied.

    You have to pay for that stuff, they have juice you can order, Chips, soda, Beef Jerky, instant meals, TV Dinners, you can also order tobacco (prison only county doesnt allow you to smoke) you can order all kinds of ****, Floyd was simply complaining cus he didnt like it there not that he wasnt being mistreated.
