Dude its not just about a worthy opponent, its also about the draw and money so guys like Lara & Thurman arent options at this point. They have no following so I can easily see why Khan would be ahead of those guys. U have to factor in the two in order for it to make sense. Got Em!!
yup, and this is whats fuckin up boxing and ufc and other 1 on 1 sport. even fake ass WWE. cuz i still wanna see steve austin vs goldberg

Regardless, Canelo was The Ring champ so either way most light MW are not as popular at all so he kind of had to fight Canelo since Floyd was also a champ at 154. That made sense.


Canelo was not the ring champ. The ring title was awarded to the winner since the ring had Floyd and Canelo ranked #1 and #2 respectively.

Mayweather: In My Life, I'll Never Do Business With Arum!

"We all know the Pacquiao fight, at this particular time, will never happen, and the reason why the fight won't happen is because I will never do business with Bob Arum again in life, and Pacquiao is Bob Arum's fighter. Bob Arum gives Pacquiao a date, whereas Floyd Mayweather gives Floyd Mayweather his own date. I will be fighting again in May and I will be fighting again in September. I'm gonna give you two reasons the Pacquiao fight is not going to happen. Like I said before, I will never do business with Bob Arum in life, but I don't wish him nothing bad," Mayweather told Fighthype.com

Canelo Alvarez...young, undefeated, 2 belt title holder @ 154lb, bigger with power, good speed...AND A HUGE FOLLOWING...JUST COMING off of his biggest win against Austin Trout...who at the time was more deserving than Canelo?
Refer to what 206 said. He barely got by Trout and he didn't even have wins over multiple top 10 guys. And a lot of his wins were against mexican cab drivers that are probably now dead in the backstreets of Jaurez.

So he can have a huge following but he did nothing to deserve the fight.

But at the end of the day Floyd is a champ at 154 and so was Canelo so the fight made sense, plus Canelo's following in Mexico was huge enough and it was known he was offered the fight since he was 19 so Canelo was promoted well enough to create this ppv.. It don't matter how Canelo won as long as he beat Trout. It don't matter how Bradley won but it still goes down that he beat many and that's how the game goes

It didn't make sense.

plus Canelo's following in Mexico was huge enough and it was known he was offered the fight since he was 19 so Canelo was promoted well enough to create this ppv..
Many mexicans didn't even consider Canelo a "real mexican" and made fun him before the fight. Then when he fights Floyd, who is like the villain to mexicans, all of a sudden Canelo is this great hero. Miss me with that shit. Canelo can't even do his own PPV, so how strong is his fanbase?

It don't matter how Canelo won as long as he beat Trout.
How he won has a lot to do with it. In fact, if how you win has nothing to do with anything people shouldn't question Pac on who he fights.

It don't matter how Bradley won but it still goes down that he beat many and that's how the game goes
Yeah it goes down that he beat Manny but, when it comes to popularity, that win didn't help him with the people. Bradley is even more popular now because he is the punching bag that casual boxing fans and people who don't know shit about boxing like to see and forget the fact that the nigga was full retard for two months after one of his fights.

So if it goes down that he beat Manny, people shouldn't question how Manny won his last fight, or how GGG won his fights or how Kovalev or Stevenson wins theirs or either of the Garcia's.

No like I said Glokkin needs to fight people in his own weight class or move up since everyone is supposedly ducking him. Go fight Ward. How come u guys arent asking for that? Afraid he will get exposed and lose?? Got Em!!
I was being sarcastic. Floyd made Marquez come up in weight, to a catchweight, then ignored the catchweight and came in like 3 lbs over that like a punk. Somehow, that's okay though right?

U act like Floyd is the only one that has ever missed weight? Floyd fights at his everyday weight so Im sure it was tough to make that weight. I dont think he ignored it. Shit happens and Marquez was paid for it. Thats why I respect Floyd. He doesnt blow up over night to try to fight smaller dudes and he fights in the right divisions that he actually weighs in. Got Em!!

The fight was at 144lb and a few weeks before the fight the contracts were modified to a 146lb and Marquez was paid $200k. Mayweather coming off a 21 month and schooled Marquez. Manny fights Marquez three years later at 144lb got out boxed and a gift decision. Then lights out a year later by Marquez. The hate for Mayweather is too funny.

Fight someone worthy just not Khan. Garcia, Lara, Thurman and yes even Pacquiao is 100000x more deserving than Khan after all Pacquiao is the number 1 challenger to his belt.now of course I'm not faulting Floyd if the pac fight can't happen next we all know damn well the politics are messed up, but I don't want to hear Floyd praise Khan while saying Pacquiao doesn't deserve a shot lol thats ridiculous
But fact is Manny doesn't deserve a fight with Mayweather point blank period. He turned down two career high payday only to uses Mayweather s name to promote his bum fights Clottey, Mosley, Margarito, cherry picking 4 140lb in a row ( Marquez x2, Bradley is actually good but still moving up from 140lb, and Bum ass Rios. But no Manny fan had a problem with those bum fights. Lol..

The fight was at 144 and Floyd paid $600,000, $300k each pound he came over. It was never at 146. The terms they agreed upon was $600k for being over weight. Why you think team Marquez were going crazy at the weigh in when Floyd hit the scales?

Pacquiao is the #1 challenger to Floyds belt, doesn't matter what you think. Clottey was a top 5 welterweight who dominated Zab Judah and had close fight with Cotto. How can one cherry pick Marquez? Lol pound 4 pound fighter same w/Bradley.

But regardless, if Pacquiao isn't worthy WTF does that make Khan??

Nope. For some of us it has nothing to do with unreasonable expectations of Floyd. For me, it has EVERYTHING to do with fighters not doing anything to actually deserve a shot. Before Canelo was announced I said he did nothing to deserve a shot. When Canelo was announced I said he did nothing to deserve the shot. When Canelo was defeated I said he did nothing to deserve the shot. If Khan fights him it'll be the same thing. He has done nothing to deserve the shot.

This nigga Floyd can fight Ronald McFuckinDonald for all I care IF, and I repeat IF, this nigga Ronald deserves the shot.
The person at 147lb that deserved the fight was Devon Alexander but we all know how he got bashed by the so called boxing fans when his name put out there to fight instead of the Ghost. Now the same people that shitted on Devon is whining about who deserve a fight. Lol. You new age boxing fans and Mayweather fans are ads backwards.

What will be funny is if Mayweather fight Maidana next the same people will be whining about how Maidana is a cherry pick. Mayweather will never fight Mosley he's a really 147lber, Mayweather will never fight a young lion like Ortiz, Mayweather is scared of Cotto he's been ducking him for years, Floyd is ducking The Ghost to fight Devon, and no way in hell Mayweather will fight Canelo.
Then after every fight gets made it then turns into a cherry pick and not a good fight.
I love boxing but you new age fans are the fucking worst.

People said he wouldn't fight an old Cotto? Who are these people? Pinoy's on a pacquiao forum?? Lol

Marquez was #2 P4P when Mayweather played with him.
Please name one named fighter other then Judah that Clottey beat? Was a Clottey fight worth more then a Mayweather fight, because Manny ducked Floyd to fight Clottey.

Beating Rios a bum that only has 3 fights over 135lb including the Manny fight means Manny is the #1 challenger to Mayweather? You have the nerve to talk about deserving a fight, Manny doesn't deserve that rating. If you can read I said Bradley was a good fight but the facts are he was moving up in weight. You are the same guy that said Mayweather KO win over a undefeated Hatton was not a good win for Floyd. Lol. Keep talking in circles my dude.

Do you want me to up the old threads to show peoples comments dick head? Lol. People on this very site said it. Their is a whole Damon thread talking about how Mayweather would duck Canelo after the Trout fight. You fools lie and double talk some much you forget all the bullshit u have said over the years. You was the main guy yell about how Mayweather was ducking Cotto. You was the main guy co-signing Manny bitch ads not fighting Manny over random testing. Now you have done a 360 on all your bullshit, but homie all your bullshit is still out there.

Do you want me to up all those old threads for some good laughs??

He could meet Floyd at a catchweight of 155 then ignore it and come in at 160lbs? That would be fair right?
Guess you didn't get the memo after Mayweather schooled Canelo, Mr. GGG don't want none of Mayweather at 154lb. Go to Youtube and look up who GGG said was the best sparring. It was Canelo and after that fight GGG has said he will stay at 160lb. Don't let the GGG hype fool you. After the Stevens fight its pretty clear GGG better keep fighting euro bums.
