canelito nuthuggers. they have no problem talking the smack but when their fighter is going to get beat, and in all likelihood schooled, they gotta come here and cry like like a little girl who just wet her panties. hopefully canelito comes in at 154 so there are no excuses after he gets to be made ordinary and average which is what he is.
Use your own material. Canelo wasn't the one who demanded a 152 lb catch weight. A 152 lb catch weight when you hold a belt at 154 is odd and highly unusual. how many 152 lb light middleweight fights have there ever been? It was Mayweather, not Canelo, who demanded that. That in it of itself might not mean so much if it wasn't for the fact that Mayweather specifically addressed catch weights prior to the Cotto fight and said what he said, that catchweights are meaningless, how he wants his opponents at his best weight. It was the quote that makes this so revealing. I really have no dog in this race. Both Canelo and FMJ are great fighters. You can respect what FMJ has accomplished and still call him out on his blatant hyprocrisy. Hopefully Canelo comes in at 154, but the problem with that is pretty ***** Floyd is trying to take 20% of Canelo's purse if he does that! if FMJ is the best, then he shouldn't need a catch weight like that. Fight a mega fight at 154 pounds, with all the belts on the line, let the best man win and unify this division!
canelito did not have to sign 152. and hes probably going to come in at 154 so the point is mute. im pretty sure that Floyd knew all along he was not going to make 144 for jmm and was going to pay the fine. im not advocating what Floyd did was right but at the end of the day I would bet that the fight is going to be weighed-in at 154, which both the Floyd and Canelo camps probably already know. a 154 canelito is going to get schooled...hard. people trying to compare an unproven 5'7" canelito to a accomplished near-prime 5'10" dlh, who was coming off a brilliant ko destruction of mayorga, is stuff dreams are made of for guys like me who are going to be betting Floyd. also, why do you care if Floyd takes 20 percent of canelitos money? it has no bearing on your life, whatsoever.
I don't like neither fighter but i will say this. I think Floyd is doing this to show Canelo who runs the show around here, since Canelo tried to boss him in the negotiations like he was Oscar or something. Floyd says to him, come at the weight or pay me Having said that, I really really hope canelo comes at 154, so there's no excuses later. I saw the Trout fight yesterday and man Canelo is in trouble. He plants those feet to throw those right hand bombs and floyd will not be there and he hooks too wide who bets against floyd anyway? have to be a fool
I love Mayweather, but i want to see him lose, it would be the biggest boxing "event" since... well, since Julio Cesar Chavez lost.
its hard for people to think clearly when the have a pink **** in their mouth. all I remember about the fight was how quiet the Mexican bar was that I was in after the sixth round and the sense of relief after the seventh round knockdown. I have no idea how anyone thought canelito was winning the fight after six rounds. ****://***.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=472004&page=42 IB has a pretty fair assessment of how the fight actually went down. none of this matters as there is no one or no judges that are going to help canelo and how average hes going to look against Floyd.
It would be interesting to see how floyd huggers would react to this. Afterall, they claim that 2 pounds don't make a difference, it would be self contradictory to descredit to victory over them.
if you know what youre doing and enjoy Mexican people and love Mexican women its absolutely heaven here. part-time for the first three years and full time for the last five.
Kind of random for me to remember this conversation, however do you remember what secondsout url used to be before it they changed it to secondsout? I miss that forum sometimes, haha. They no longer have a forum!
Lol I wrote that before the fight happened. Looks like I still predicted Mayweather to win. I actually didn't realize I was the thread starter for this thread, haha. I remembered a conversation from here and brought it back up to ask an unrelated question to the premise of the thread.
It always makes me laugh as well because it was Canelo’s team who offered to drop 2 pounds to make the fight. It was not on Mayweather’s radar at all but Leonard Ellerbe called their bluff saying if your manager is incompetent it’s my job to take advantage of your stupidity.
