    People are so soon to forget Mosley rang his bell and if he would have went wild he would have koed May the man was hurt Mosley showed to much respect.

        Floyd will hold up. He will also be forced to throw punches with bad intentions...not that he doesn't already. When you deal with punchers, you have to become a puncher in a sense. Floyd has always done this, and his opponent isn't capable of adjusting. I see this happening also in this fight.

            While Floyd is a slick and calculating counter-puncher on the surface, I think he has some hidden fortitude that we haven't seen tested yet because the competition hasn't been able to push him to the limit.

              I secretly hope for this as well. Seeing Mayweather in a war will be sick. If he gets hurt on a serious level, hangs in there and comes back with a KO or win period I wouldn't be mad at dude. I've reached a point where I no longer rage behind specific fighters I just want to see good fights. I used to suffer from major fanboyism with certain fighters but **** all that, give me a well fought war.

                Floyd's fortitude is no longer hidden. Corley brought it out. Mosley brought it out. Emanuel Burton (Augsustus) brought it out. Floyd will **** if he has to. He has that in him...he just doesn't have to.

                I never guessed Guerrero would crumble the way he did. If it's one thing Guerrero always showed was heart and a willingness to engage. He stood in front of Mayweather confused for long stretches in that fight. I expect Canelo to fight more like Ortiz fought Mayweather which will undoubtedly force some exchanges. I think people are underestimating Canelo's boxing ability too. He has got better with every fight. I can't wait to see this fight and as long as Floyd holds up physically through his last 5 fights, this the only guy I see him fighting that has a shot to beat him.

                  Canelo throws nice tight crisp shots, but you can just see the difference in hand speed between him and Mayweather...it will be problematic for the kid.

                    easy peasy... Cherrypicker will run and avoid almost everything the ginger will throw. when the ginger gets him on the ropes, Cherrypicker will hold on for dear life tighter than a crack head hold onto his rocks.

                    it will get boring because Cherrypicker don't have the mentality to finish off the ginger

                      Why would anyone want to get into the way of someone's punches?
