    There was no need for Floyd to fight Canelo at 152lb, he now looks a dick to ask for that when he would have won at the normal limit 154lb.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I'm not sure why this is such a sticking point as it would have not made any difference.

    Dam Ray Leonard got away with getting Lalonde down to 168 to defend his 175 title and the new 168 title up for grabs at the same time.

    No he did not, Dundee left him before Lalonde, he did not want to take part in this "sparring"

    No he did not what. Lalonde melted down to 168 from 175 to defend his title with Leonard. That is a fact. They also put the 168 title on the line to give it the appearance of legitimacy. That is also a fact.

    I can see why you are so devout, you have the deductive powers of a slug.

    I think the people pick his opponents for him, whoever we think might beat him, he fights. How can he get away with this? everyone makes a huge payday when they fight Floyd plus he keeps kicking the shit out of our choices.
    We don't seem to learn and immediately start hyping his next victim. It's funny in a way, we do most of the work for him, all he does is train, fight, give us the finger and collect the money.
    The good news is that, if he keeps fighting long enough he will lose. Won't he? LOL
