I thought Floyd was gonna already announce who he was going to fight? First he asks Canelo for his undercard, now Broner. But people think I'm crazy about the undercard being a factor on PPV buys.
Battle, what the fuck are you talking about now? Everyone and their momma knows that the undercard is a factor in PPV buys. Now you're saying some even more wild shit. First it was Floyd needed Pac, then Floyd needed Mexicans and now Floyd needs this fighter or that fighter for the undercard. Make up your goddamn mind! Who the fuck does he need next? Obama? Cuzo from North Korea? Spiderman? Get the fuck out of here, battle.

And HERESY @HERESY you better be Mexican that lives in or by the border to know what Mexicans think of Canelo or Floyd cuz you got your shit fucked up. You answer this then, why did Floyd ask Canelo to be on his undercard?
I don't need to live near mexico. I'm in California already, lol. Read what people were saying HERE and in other forums and you'll see what I'm saying is fact.

Why did Floyd ask for Canelo to be on his undercard? Think long term opportunity, battle. That's why.

You realize Sugar Ray Leonard was 5'11 right? He would tower over all of the current Welterweights who are all 5'8 or below. Margarito 5'11. Kermit Cintron 5'11. Trinidad 5'11. Wilfred Benitez 5'10. Oscar de la hoya 5'10 1/2. Sugar Ray Robinson 5'11.

Maidana, Bradley, Rios, Pac, JMM, Paulie can all easily make 140. These guys are all 5'6-5'7 with exception to Rios who is 5'8. Historically these are very undersized welterweights. It's the smallest welterweight class I can ever think of.
Size isn't all about height, that's not what I mean. Leonard had Paul Williams frame but was 2 inches shorter with like a 293" shorter wingspan lol Margarito always looked way bigger than Leonard every did at 147. Cintron was a pretty big Welterweight. Trinidad looked a lot like Leonard at 147. DLH was a pretty big Welterweight too.

Guys like Bradley are pretty big when they're not in training camp. Maidana allegedly had trouble getting below 147 the week of the Broner fight. The rest of the guys you named are small.

Bradley gets fat because he's not on a diet and not at the gym. Ricky Hatton got up to 200 pounds that didn't mean he wasn't a junior welter. Means some guys let their bodies go between fights.

Leonard had a Paul Williams frame? Nah I think Hearns had more of a Williams frame Leonard had some muscle on him

I can tell we're going to agree to disagree but Hearns' arms were huge compared to Williams. He's tall and lanky obviously but if Leonard was Williams height, he would look more like Williams than Hearns does. Paul wasn't usually very ripped up. Hearns was pretty cut. Either way, Hearns and Williams were both huge Welterweights. Leonard would've looked pretty small next to Margarito even though they are close to the same height.

HERESY @HERESY what long term opportunities are you talking about for Canelo? Showtime is already backing him for taking a catchweight fight! Floyd needs Pac (and the other way) for legitimizing their IN RING LEGACIES! Floyd needs Mexicans for PPV BUYS. I already said that. If you wann argue with me then argue with Floyd as well, as he has said in the past that he likes to fight fighters with a country behind them cuz out here in the US people don't support like that. And if Mexicans don't view Canelo as a "real Mexican" then why was his last fight the second most watched event in Mexico history? Are you Mexican cuz living in Cali don'y mean you know shit about them either.

I disagree man the welterweight division got so bad that it's full of junior welterweights. Like I said the other day the only true welterweights right now really are Keith Thurman and like Soto-Karrass. And Berto. Everyone else are small junior welters Bradley, Alexander, Marquez, Rios, Paulie, Pac, Maidana, shit even Floyd could fight at 140 if he wanted to. Could you imagine prime Williams and Margarito vs Maidana or someone like that lol they would be tiny.
I gave you props for the comparisons of now and then in the WW division but I think Marcos Maidana would have KO'd Paul Williams via working the body...and the BEST fight of all of them would have been Amir Khan vs Paul Williams...could you imagine that shit? Danny Garcia moving up to meet Miguel Cotto at 147lbs before Cotto outgrew that division...Lucas "The Machine" Matthysse vs Antonio Margarito...Kieth Thurman vs Sugar Shane Mosley...Robert Guerrero vs Margarito...EVERYBODY vs Adrien Broner.

I think Williams would box the ears off of Maidana and Khan. I think Cotto would've bombed on Garcia. Margarito would've probably bombed on Matthysse too. Thurman vs. Mosley would be a great fight on paper though.

Yes Hearns and Williams were very big welterweights but the point is welterweights are historically typically bigger than the current crop of former junior welterweights. Right now these guys are really small 5'6-5'7 guys that only moved up in weight to chase the big names. Pacquiao, JMM definitely wouldn't be welterweights in other era's, same for most other guys like Maidana, Bradley etc. Sure they can beef up a lil bit and hold their own against current guys cus their all small!

Paul Williams was 6'2 Maidana is 5'7 and I've never seen Williams hurt to the body ever. Williams would have destroyed Maidana, imo. To beat Williams you gotts counter punch i.e Lara, Martinez. Amir Khan vs Williams? Lol now I know you're trollin you got me!

Maidana is 5'9 with more KO power than volume punching Williams...Sergio is 5'10 and did quite well...also Paul Williams has a weakness for Argentinians FACT!!!! Maidana has NEVER been stopped Paul has...

Lol I know your trollin but I'll play along, Maidana is 5'7 http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=257790&cat=boxer So Williams would have a 6-7 inch height advantage.

Williams got KOd by a MIDDLEWEIGHT and one of the most perfect shots in recent years. Williams had an iron chin at welterweight took plaster shots from Margarito wasnt phased and won.

Maidana was knocked down hard by Khan, knocked down what was it two or three times against Victor Ortiz? Troll on!

I was just trying to bend the laws of reality to no avail...I guess it would have been a replay of Hearns vs Duran LOL!!!

Williams had a great chin. No question. That's why it was so shocking that he was ko'd like that. Sergio is also a pretty damn good puncher and that was just a perfect shot like you said.

Williams was way better than Alexander on his best day though and Maidana looked like an amateur in there.

But I will say that Khan has pretty good power and he knocked Maidana down with a perfect body shot. You can't help that no matter how good your abs are. Ortiz put every person on the canvas he fought until he fought Floyd in his career. He's a joto, but he's a really good puncher too so you can't fault Maidana too much for that.

dickface said cotto was shot
Don't know who the fuck you are troll. But after three back to back wars Hand-wrapped Maragrito, Clottey, and Manny at 145lb. Cotto was shop worn for sure, but he fought himself back and Beat on Margarito to get his nuts back. Those are the facts.

Now watch your mouth when addressing me you lame ass fuck Boy.

This is why I hate talking to you, you always bullshit and twist shit.

I said, numerous times, my only funk with Floyd was when he "retired" for two years when the division was so hot - undefeated Cotto, Margarito was hot, Paul Williams was hot, that was way back in 2008 or 2009 or something. I never said Floyd would duck Cotto in 2012 lol.

Regarding Canelo, I left him out for a reason because I remember foolish shit being said. I was defending Floyd in fact saying a). Floyd doesn't need to fight him and b). If Floyd does fight him he will beat him. Same went for Sergio Martinez I always said fuck Martinez Floyd is a welterweight (or blown up WW when he fights at JMW).

You say I hate Floyd or whatever but I've spent my share of time praising him. I've never picked a fighter to beat him. I break down his fights, explain how masterful he is etc. The only negative shit I have to say about Floyd is usually shit that comes out his own mouth (he contradicts himself constantly). Other than that we all agree he's the best fighter in the game hands down.

If you co-signed Manny ducking Mayweather over random testing like you did for 3 years, then I'm sorry dick head you are a Hater. U was the main guy making excuses for Manny. You are a Hater but now you have no choice but to eat crow because Mayweather is still on top.

So it's Mayweather fault that other fighter can't win their own fights. 147lb is pretty fucking hot now in 2013 - 2014.
