Ok, at what freaking weight? Is he going to drag Manny to 155 or as it is called caneloweight? He can't make 147 anymore he being canelo and Manny is small as hell to go up so high. On top of that, it is a shite fight.

Canelo is WAY too big for Pac. That would be like sending GGG to fight Vlad just because the fight could be made.


I don't think there's any way Freddie would let that go through.

I could see Pacquiao taking that fight at 155 simply because it's a HUGE cashout fight to wrap up his boxing career. They would probably negotiate a rehydration clause, though. Canelo probably weighs 175 on fight night.

I wouldn't bet on it taking place, but I also wouldn't rule it out. Not when there's that much money on the table....

Junior-middleweight. Canelo would make 154.

Like Marciano said, it's the perfect Canelo move based on what he's done in the past.

Just telling you that he has options and could make money without GGG.

On what planet? That is 1 of the biggest fights out there and yes Pac would wipe the floor with Canelo.

Eta: It would have to be at a 150 catch weight also.
