Comments Thread For: Canelo: Forget The Head, I'm Ripping Mayweather's Body

[Jim Tom]

Doesn't Canelo know that Floyd's body is always covered?
Congratulations for just setting yourself for massive counters to that head of your Canelo.
I see a Gatti repeat on this one, Canelo aint **** and his ass is getting busted from round one. No time for feeling out here, in fact fight won't go the distance.

didn't de la hoya say the same thing? we all saw how that ended for him.

How, with a very close split decision loss?

You gotta corner Floyd first before you get to his body. And that's easier said than done when Floyd doesn't wanna be cornered. Against hatton, Oscar and some guys he chose to lay on the ropes block all the body punches and slip the shots up top. But when he doesn't wanna be cornered ala Guerrero fight, well u saw exactly what he can do. No one knows what Floyd's gonna do until he gets in there and studies Canelo in the ring, and I trust once again he'll break him down and take away everything he has like he always does. Good luck Canelo

So every opponent that has faced Floyd lately: Guerrero, Cotto, Ortiz, Mosley, have all been able to get Floyd against the ropes and in the corner various times during their respective fights but a bigger, stronger, 22 year old dude is not going to be able to do the same thing?

Trust me, Canelo will be able to get him where he wants him, it's a matter of will he be able to capitalize on the opportunity? I'm also a huge Guerrero fan but he is slow as a snail compared to Alvarez, that speed factor is going to play a big factor.

Alvarez has a tall order in front of him but he is going to provide the toughest challenge Floyd has faced since the ODLH fight, I'd venture to guess much more of a challenge than Oscar presented.

You sure about that? Let's bet on that come fight time: Floyd doesn't stop Canelo.....just let me know how much.

Canelo isn't fast enough to pull off body shots, mayweather will counter the body shots with right hands and left hooks all night. Everybody has a plan until someone get punched in the face. Only way Mayweather lose if he ages overnight. 45-0

Floyd chooses to go to.the ropes sometimes and just block everything you have so you can spend energy. Ortiz sure as hell wasn't landing anything which is why he was frustrated and Mosley did 0 against the ropes. After his 2 moments against Floyd, which came at the center of the ring, Floyd clinicced his ass. Mosley is horrible example. Cotto maybe but that's it.

[bojangles1987]

That's the right idea going in, we'll see if he sticks with it when Mayweather's moving, turning him and nailing him with right uppercuts. If he does stick with it, that could work.

[BCSunstoppable]

Well he better ko him with body shots cause if canelo watched the cotto fight, he should know body shots don't count against mayweather. For every 5-8 body shots landed they might be kind enough to count it as one. Good luck canelo...
