Comments Thread For: Canelo: We Will Surprise Mayweather, and The World

[Check_hooks]

I know Canelo CAN win, but the question is will the judges/Haymon/CBS allow it?

Floyd's style can be beaten but you have to throw combinations the entire fight. Thats why he ducked every volume puncher that he came across. (Margarito, Paul Williams, Pacquiao)

Oscar laided out the gameplan in a interview and Castillo already proved it.

how would that be cool? I could see if you said 154 but 158? Really? Floyd wouldnt even fight him then unless he takes Canelo's whole purse for himself and he still might not even do it

i think there are people who want that just so they can say floyds a ducker

For the people who says Canelo has 0 skills take a look at this video, too bad this dude's youtube channel got closed, he had like 100 film studies of different boxers. I know is a big one but it's worth takin the time to watch it full, the dude knows boxing at his best.

I don't think anyone truly believes he has 0 skills, but when you look at who he has beat it's easy to look good against that level of competition. Nobody can deny that Canelo has basically fought avearge 140 and 147 pounders. I think we need to see him against some good fighters his size before we access his skills. Trout is a good win but me personally I'm not sold on Trout.

That's a valid point, and don't get me wrong I don't believe Canelo will win, but if someone has a legit chance to beat Floyd right now, is this kid, Canelo's is a clever fighter, I think what most people underate about him is his Ring IQ, yeah I know it sounds ridiculous but really he's smart and I think that he's got more of a puncher chance to beat Floyd, regards. Most people don't realize but I invite a lot of people to watch Canelo's last fights, and ask yourself this question, Has Canelo ever fought the same way over his last fights?

No, the kid fights different each fight, because he likes to think inside the square. regards.

PD: To add something I forgot to say, Canelo keeps getting better and better each fight. I know he ain't near Floyd's level but kid is gettin top level.

Canelo has as much Ring IQ as did Guerrero, and you saw what happened. Outside of Floyd Mayweather, Juan Manual Marquez is arguably the next boxer with the highest ring smarts, and we saw what happened there. Canelo's advantage is just size/power.

And the interesting thing is that, Guerrero had more advantages coming into the fight than Canelo. With the greatest advantage being that Guerrero is a southpaw. Canelo doesn't even have that advantage. It'll be a long night.

Why would that be cool? What's wrong with boxing fans?

He's not a boxing fan. He's a Floyd hater. Two totally different things.

[InYourFace]

Canelo has already gotten on my nerves with his bull****, he's talking **** like he didn't need a weight advantage to fight Floyd, Canelo will be afraid to fight Floyd if there was no weight advantage for himself. Canelo acts like a coward-period.

I see a TKO stoppage in the late rounds for Mayweather. I doubt Ginger's corner will allow him to even take a mild beating. They won't allow him to take the same punishment Guerrero took.

Ginger will freeze up under the lights when the bell rings and MONEY is across the ring from him. He's only 22. The kid may get ruined.

Props to him for the Austin Trout victory, but Trout is nowhere near Mayweather's skill level. Once Ginger keeps swinging and missing, he'll get flustered and get desperate.

Once Floyd starts popping his head back a few times, corner will stop the fight.

This is EXACTLY how I have the fight playing out.

hey alvared. mayweather has seen it all. the only surprise of the night will be when you can't hit him. and he's tagging you all night long.
