Whats up y'all. I know i don't post but i've been lurking on this site for years (literally). Heres a screenshot from all access of a face to face between mayweather and canelo. Canelo undoubtedly and unsurprisingly has the wider and thicker build. however as far as height and reach goes there is not as much as a discrepancy. Thoughts?

He's already done it more than once. There is no mystery to it. But if you're trying to argue that they are the same weight that is downright silly.
Yeah I know, once since 2007. I'm by no means saying Floyd would be heavier, nowhere near. I just want to know his fight night weight and not have to guess based on what he weighted several years ago, or even 30 days prior since this is apparently so easily cheated.
If you gonna be asking to unify at a CW, for being too small of a champ, you need to step on that scale fight night. Especially after slamming another guy for using CWs 2+ divisions higher than you've ever went.
Well damn,this is a damn good post,rare around here
Don't say another goddamn word. Up until now, I've been polite. If you say anything else--word one--I will kill myself. And when my tainted spirit finds its destination, I will topple the master of that dark place. From my black throne, I will lash together a machine of bone and blood, and fueled by my hatred for you this fear engine will bore a hole between this world and that one. When it begins you will hear the sound of children screaming--as though from a great distance. A smoking orb of nothing will grow above your bed, and from it will emerge a thousand starving crows. As I slip through the widening maw in my new form, you will catch only a glimpse of my radiance before you are incinerated. Then, as tears of bubbling pitch stream down my face, my dark work will begin. I will open one of my six mouths, and I will sing the song that ends the Earth.
lol@ some of the posts. Thats right, canelo does love his shoes haha. Well i think the reason i brought it up because i feel like some people think that canelo being the "bigger" fighter is giving him more of an advantage than people may think. What i mean is that canelo has less of the physical advantages of a de la hoya, where de la hoya was bigger,taller, longer reach, etc.
de la hoya was also having success early on with that jab, which i think was largely due to his size advantage (he always had a good jab i know) and even so mayweather took it away (plus he faded).
I just find the dynamic intriguing and I'm interested to see what canelo's gameplan will be come fight night. With Trout i think people were surprised with how he fought. He varied his attack, and even though not completely polished yet he showed some skill set that many didn't think he had (myself personally). General consensus was that he would have a come forward seek and destroy type approach
He still gets hit, and he fights only half the rounds and he'll be in there with the best. He gets better every fight though so we'll see where his learning curve is at 3 weeks from nowWell damn,this is a damn good post,rare around here

He is a spin doctor always spinning some sht .
Did you know 30 day weighins can easily be gamed? I only learned it when Ellerbe started accusing Alvarez of doing it. Sure hope Floyd lets them weigh him in fight night for once.

Canelo will have 15+ lbs on him so I think it's clear who's bigger.
Baldomir is also much bigger than Mayweather despite being shorter.
Mike Tyson is 5 ft 11.

Screenshots will capture exaggerations from various angles and various lenses on a camera. It's a known fact that Canelo is a little bigger than Floyd who has moved up from smaller weights. Canelo is 154 at his age when Floyd was probably 130-135.
Not much that this screenshot will prove. Guerrero is taller, Ortiz looked bigger, DLH was bigger, Mosley was bigger, Castillo was bigger, etc...etc...it only means so much
Thoughts? I'd say any inch closer these guys will be snogging. All I can say Canelo is much stronger which can prevail him. Anything can happen in boxing, you saw what happened last night. Never count anyone out.
