That he (Floyd) fought Cotto at 154? So what? 154 was never Miguel's best weight and even so Miguel managed to give Floyd a better fight than maybe Floyd himself was expecting.

    I'm not a huge Floyd fan, but fair is fair. He's spent years creating his legacy.
    Let Canelo start his own.
    What the fuck you think he's trying to do? You start a legacy by going after the best. Which is exactly what Alvarez is trying to do.

    Mayweather himself said he wanted to defend his WBA Junior Middleweight title after fighting Guerrero. In order to do that he needs to fight at 154. The WBA has already stated he was never stripped of the title and he's still there Super Champion.

    Seems like he's willing to fight at 154 as long as he's not fighting Alvarez.

    let Floyd fight Alexander and Canelo take on Lara, cause it's another May/Pac meaning it's not gonna happen

    90% chance it will be one but he's the only top guy available for that time, seeing how Bradley faces Marquez in September, Pacquiao faces Rios in November, and Malignaggi is about to face Broner

    Even more reason to face Alvarez

    I'm not saying he shouldn't but if he's refusing to fight him at 154 and Canelo is refusing to come down, then I have no interest in a fight that wont happen, just like May/Pac, so both should just go on to the best available in their weight division without the drama
