why the hell not
I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen.
Canelo is a good fighter but he's young and just too green. Floyd would beat him easy, I wouldn't pay to watch it.
i think were due for a free fight after all the recent disapointmentsQuote:

Now you mention it, Ortiz vs Canelo is a matchup I'd be interest seeing. 50-50 fight.
Why not ???!! Cause it's crazy for us to bitch about competitive match ups then out of desperation for floyd to loose let a b level fighter at best fight a guy who is supposidly the best in the game. How about klitchko vs chris byrd agian since we're seeking out the best fights here. Canelo couldn't beat most of floyds sparring partners.
Of course he would fight Alvarez, because he poses no threat to his precious zero. Yeah Floyd, go after another guy that doesn't have enough experience to give you a real fight. :shakehead:
he shouldn't take on Canelo but there isn't much out there apart from some other less profitable names at 154 and well Martinez, but well we both know that neither Mayweather or Pacquiao are really looking in that direction, and we know Pacquiao isn't looking anywhere towards Floyd's directionQuote:

Ha yea right so everyone can complain he fought a 37 year old Martinez who looked lackluster against Barker until the KO.. Sergio who has not one shred of boxing technique would get surgically carved up by Mayweather..
Two different levels entirely. I'm not totally bagging on Canelo but he strikes me as one who's bright light and flashing bulbs surrounding him are starting to overshadow his full in the ring ability right now and overall accomplishment. He's promise, talent, and fresh but there is a reason he's slapping around Alfonso Gomez and not putting Floyd's name in his mouth just yet. Thats going from the kiddie pool to the abyss in a blink.
disagree with you completely on that one buddy, Martinez even at 154 would give Mayweather hell, he has speed, power, an unorthodox style and yet still puts punches together well, and good foot movement, add in his overall size advantage and he's Mayweather's worst nightmare, there's a reason that the only guys willing to fight him are either relative unknowns or fellow fighters who no one else wants to fightQuote:

I would love to see the fight, and while some people think ortiz was a bit green I actually liked the match up and think ortiz was doin ok till his brain went haywire. I wouldt hate to see canelo pbf that's a 12 round domination by pbf, but then honestly so are most fights out there imo with the exception of martinez. I think martinez could give pbf a good fight due to his unorthodx style, size and mental fortitude. Doubt it happens thoQuote:

Unless Floyd want a stay sharp fight in February against
5. Morales at 147
6. Berto
Martinez is very overrated. the guy holds his hands down way to low and would get picked off and picked apart.
not sold
Some1 with a consistent good jab with ok footwork would beat Martinez. His low hands is going to shorten his reign once he fight an elite fighter. But who? IMO, that's why he won't test any 168 fighter. Dirrell(both)Quote:
