The kid has stones, I'll give him that but he knows a payday when he can see it. By the time he's truly ready to face Floyd, Floyd will probably be in retirement by then, so I suspect he's trying to strike while the iron's hot. Besides, what if he could land that one lucky shot and actually win?

He's pushing for the fight, because he saw what happened with Sergio Martinez. The dude is a MW king and can't fight jack **** of good opposition now. 147 too low and 175 too high. Same will happen to Canelo in a few years. His final destination will probably be 160 or 168, in other words a ****ty div to fight if you want the best money. That's why he wants Floyd now that he can still make 150.Originally posted by Slip Stream View PostComment

I like Kirkland but honestly, he would get brutally stopped by Canelo. He just doesn't have the chin to stay in that fight I'm afraid.Originally posted by SekondzOut View Post

I can agree with that, but I also think Floyd has a point when he says many fighters have nothing to sell beyond their bland personas. I think what makes Floyd so great isn't just his boxing skills but his ability to market himself and a lot of other fighters haven't gotten this. The division may not be the best but a skillful marketer can make the most of a bad situation.Originally posted by Pactar∂ View PostComment

Ill give the kid props for having the balls to call out Mayweather like that but this would be a complete missmatch. Kid has to grow some hairs in his chest before stepping in the ring with Mayweather or anyone else in that level. Try some other contender first...Comment

Sorry Canelo, fight some better fights in 2012, and than I bet you'd get the fight in May 2013, probably Floyd's last fight.
Alvarez needs to fight the Cotto-Margarito II winner, Kirkland, Lara, Martirosyan, Angulo, Trout-Munidne winner, etc. Any combination of those fights in 2012 would be good and get people more hyped about Alvarez and more people would buy into him more, and it would make a Floyd fight at 154 legit.Comment

Which best, are you for real? He hasn't fought a decent fighter in his own division he is been fighting corpses, and he wants Fraud, common he wants the money that will bring that fight plus once he loses he can come back with his pride still intact, after all he got beat by the best, not Kirkland, Lara or Angulo, he needs to answer the challenges that he have at 154...Originally posted by TheGoldenChamp View PostComment
