    i dont expect him to bulk up too much. i think thats why he chose 152. its the ideal weight for him to make.

      Not that I'm downplaying the fight. It's the best one Mayweather could make.
      agreed...canelo likes to wait on his opponents to make the first move. not the type of style to give a guy like mayweather problems.

        People defending Floyd ask, "what's 2 pounds"? indeed. So then I ask "if 2 pounds isn't anything, then why does Floyd need it"?? The greatest fighter boxing, the supposed pfp king, talked Pacman down for catchweights and now needs one himself, pshhhh.
        LOL Please shut up smh!

          I'm just happy this fight is getting made. Catchweight or not.

          I'm picutring a Floyd UD 117-111 or 116-112.

          Canelo will win rounds but Floyd's footwork, stamina, and counterpunching ability will just be too much. It's a huge step up in class for Canelo, and I don't think he'll be able to handle it.

          This fight will do huge numbers.

            Floyd will probably weigh around 155-157 on fight night, but he definitely won't weigh in.

            That way after he loses, he has the 25 lb disadvantage excuse to fall back on.

              I see this fight as being a big mismatch. I don't even think Floyd needed the catch weight. I think the reason for the catch weight is just to drain Canelo a little more so Floyd looks better in the fight.

                Floyd will stop Canelito in 10. I love Canelito but Floyd is too skilled and fast for him. I do expect it to be a great fight, better than the Cotto one hopefully. Canelo will hunt his body and Floyd will defend it masterfully and will rip him apart round after round. WAR Mayweather!

                  Floyd is not stopping Canelo. He'll win, but by UD.

                      Floyd beating Canelo would be better than Pac's entire body of work above 135 IMO. Even at the ****** cw.
