De La Hoya will never allow Canelo near Floyd until at least a year from now. He needs more rust and wear to kick in on Floyd as Alvarez gets better. I'm sure Floyd would fight Alvarez tomorrow, but Oscar won't be letting that happen, he wants a return on the investment GBP had made in helping Floyd and Mayweather promotions by feeding a slowed Floyd to Alvarez. It's obvious for a number of reasons much of Canelo's fanbase HATES Mayweather probably only second to the Pactards.diddy wrote:Canelo-Floyd should be next, and Floyd would be wise to fight him now as opposed to later. Floyd will only slow down, Canelo will only get better. Floyd would win a very, very tense decision. He's the only guy besides Pacquaio and Martinez that would give Floyd a true test.
Or a Bailey-type one.:)dajuggernaut wrote:Floyd would not fight Alvarez tomorrow. I'll be surprised to see him ever fight Alvarez. Too much risk for Floyd's precious 0. Expect a Alexander type opponent if Floyd ever comes back.
Miguel Cotto, Juan Manuel Marquez, Victor Ortiz and Shane Mosley wasn't too much risk for him since his comeback, but Saul Alvarez is?dajuggernaut wrote:Floyd would not fight Alvarez tomorrow.

I'd see Saul in Floyd's future before Devon. I don't think there are many choices for Floyd to fight & one of them is clearly Saul. Devon isn't even on the short list, the only list Floyd picks from, right now. I don't expect it to happen this year I know that much. If Floyd fights Saul it would likely be in May or Sept 2013. I still don't expect Floyd to fight til May 2013 whoever he fights.dajuggernaut wrote:Floyd would not fight Alvarez tomorrow. I'll be surprised to see him ever fight Alvarez.

The hilarious thing will be if he does fight Saul how Saul will suddenly be a "hand picked opponent who had no chance to win" too. Everyone has "no chance to win" vs Floyd when they sign the contract thats the catch 22 some fans have put Floyd in. Saul is "scary" for Floyd now in their opinions, but the day after the fight is made Saul would be "made to order" or some such sh!t. This is all sorta funny to me & predictable as its happened a few times now.Bobbyptsd wrote:Miguel Cotto, Juan Manuel Marquez, Victor Ortiz and Shane Mosley wasn't too much risk for him since his comeback, but Saul Alvarez is?dajuggernaut wrote:Floyd would not fight Alvarez tomorrow.

I'd like to know how that works.
Oh, but I know, all those fights don't count, for miscellaneous reasons.
Shane Mosley was never a threat, this version of Cotto wasn't a threat, Marquez was good but way out of his weight comfort zone, something Alvarez won't be. Ortiz was never good, I don't even know why you mentioned him.Bobbyptsd wrote:Miguel Cotto, Juan Manuel Marquez, Victor Ortiz and Shane Mosley wasn't too much risk for him since his comeback, but Saul Alvarez is?dajuggernaut wrote:Floyd would not fight Alvarez tomorrow.

Well we won't know because Mayweather won't do it.SouthpawStephen wrote:Oh man. Floyd would capitalize on openings all night with Canelo.
