By Chris Williams: Floyd Mayweather Jr. failed to agree to fight WBC junior middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez in September, and Canelo has now pulled out of Mayweather’s May 4th pay-per-view card in response. If this was supposed to bother Mayweather I think it’s a fail because Mayweather isn’t going to be bothered by not having Canelo on his undercard.
I think Mayweather made the fight decision by not agreeing to fight Canelo on September 14th because is not a junior middleweight. He’s barely a welterweight, and having to fight someone that is going to have a big weight and power advantage over him isn’t worth the trouble.
