But I'll take Canelo.
I don't see the point in fighting Canelo in May though unless Martinez is next after that.

Roy beat Hopkins, but at the time, Hopkins resume was what? Hindsite is 20/20.

If it does get signed, I think I will be going with the upset...
There seems to be a rapid changing of the guard. Cotto, Pac and maybe Mayweather.
Canelo is just huge, throws good combinations, good power and technique. I think he has questionable stamina and chin but I don't think those would get tested too much. We will see

Floyd is the master at making people miss. Shots that miss use more stamina than ones that land or get parried.

His accuracy against Cotto was awful for Mayweather standards, he isn't the same fighter as he was when he fought Oscar at 154. Add to the fact that he wouldn't have fought for a full year when he fights on May 4th, this is definitely not a 'tune up' fight. It will be competitive and Canelo might be able to hurt Floyd.
Floyd is not the same fighter as he was when he fought JMM and Ricky Hatton, he doesn't move nearly as much which is a huge detriment for fighting guys with 1-punch KO power like Canelo, especially when Floyd most likely won't be able to hurt him with single shots
What's the deal with this fascination of Floyd Mayweather, people act like the guy has found the fountain of youth and will never age or recess in speed or ability, just wait.. you will see what I'm talking about when he fights on May 4th, I don't care who the opponent is. And people will be here acting all surprised at what they saw, I've been saying this since after the Ortiz fight
Canelo is not ready for Floyd, he hasn't fought anyone with even 50% of the ring craft that Floyd brings to the table, this fight is a mismatch.

Fighting Trout, Fight Lara, Fighting Molina, Fighting K9...that would have better prepared Canelo for Mayweather
But to me jumping in with Mayweather without truely being tested is CAREER SUICIDE...I swear Mayweather takes something out of a fighter Mental once he is done...it is usually down hill after Mayweather fights you
It is mentally DRAINING I think, especially when your in the ring with the a guy in which your throwing everything you have at him and your hitting nothing but Arms, Elbows and Shoulder and not really hurting him while he is popping you with Jabs and Lead Rights and then is gone by the time you try to counter
Mayweather will ruin this dude like Lennox Lewis ruined Michael Grant...would not be shocked if Mayweather Stops Him via Corner Stoppage with Canelo Corner protecting his future

Canelo would, of course, love this fight. A lot of fans including myself, would love it also. But fans have been teased this way all too often. I doubt very much Floyd will fight this guy. I'll believe it when they have a pre-fight press conference and both fighters are on stage engaging in the pre-fight staredown.
