floyd at 154 is the not same fighter at 147.

floyd could lose to canelo.

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

I'm curious to see if they fight at 154 or at a catchweight of 150...

I doubt Canelo would be willing to come down to 147...

Either way this won't be an easy fight for Floyd but one that he should win...

 

[Big Boss]

floyd has had 2 fights at 154 and he didn't look all that.

According to Canelo's twitter it's a done deal for May 4th...

floyd at 154 is not the same fighter at 147.

floyd could lose to canelo.

floyd chose to be offensive that fight though if u notice toward the end he went back to his normal defensive self and thats when cotto started to get popped and damn near ko in that fight

if floyd fights like he normally does instead of trying to trade shots and be offensive aggressor canelo gonna get beat down

 

[patscorpio]

floyd will beat canelo easy why because canelo can't go 5-6 rounds without gassing out...after that its a total ass whoopin

catchweight for what?

floyd aint fight oscar or cotto at a catchweight at 154, fuk he need a catchweight for canelo for.


until, rafeal or another credible journalist confirm this im not buying floyd-canelo. i still dont believe goldenboy will make it happen, it's just too premature for canelo imo.

Adrien Broner offered Ricky Burns world title fight in London | Mail Online

American world champion Adrien Broner has sensationally challenged Ricky Burns to a unification clash at just TWO days notice.

Burns was due to defend his WBO lightweight title against first Liam Walsh and then Jorge Ocampo but both pulled out, leaving the Scot without an opponent for Saturday's show at the Excel in London.But Broner, who won the WBC belt against Antonio DeMarco last month and is regarded by many as boxing's successor to Floyd Mayweather Jnr, claims he would fly to London to take on the Scot.

'I found out, Burns doesn't have an opponent so I told them: "Fly me out today, I will make weight and I will beat that guy",' he told ES News.

Watch the Haters say Canelo is green....he aint fight nobody

Floyd doesnt fight him N its hes Scary of a young bigger hungry fighter undefeated in his prime a threat

Well he is green and pretty much untested, but I'm not knocking this fight. This would be a solid win for floyd. Assuming the fight is at 154.

Yeah I agree, he doesn't have the legs to beat floyd.
