    Canelo's stamina and inactivity worries me. He has the skills to trouble Floyd, but just isn't active enough. I keep watching his latest fights and trying to convince myself that he has a change against Floyd, but still not a chance.

      I think he held back against Trout to make himself look vulnerable to Mayweather

      If he looks like a world beater vs Trout he never gets his shot vs Money

        Canelo doesn't have stamina problems per say in my opinion. He exerts too much energy when he's throwing his punches. Loads up way too much on almost every thing.

          I agree Canelo has to fight a calm patient fight. You can apply pressure with Mayweather, everyone tries it. But you also have to be patient enough to not get frustrated. Cotto had a good game plan against Mayweather. At the beginning of the fight he picked his spots, but the more success he had, the more impatient he got. During the round where he had Mayweather pinned against the ropes (I think 8 or 9), he was missing almost as much as he was landing. You saw how frustrated he was getting. The fight was pretty much over after that. Mayweather has so many different ways to win. Only great patience, and the willingness to adjust with him will help Canelo get a win. Easier said though...

            Everyone saying alvarez will gas dont realize how serious he is taking this fight. he will be slimmer that he's last fight less muscle mass. Quick and snappier will his punches be. You will see a canelo you've never seen before. Stop watching his fight with trout and trying to go off that. If you think he will fight the same way just log off the site you know nothing

                  Did he not take his other fights seriously?

                    If Alvarez can't put some serious leather on Mayweather in the first half of the fight, and I doubt that he can, Floyd will win an easy UD. I think Alvarez getting stopped late is a possibility...
                    LMAO, I just don't get where all this "Floyd will stop him late" talk comes from. Floyd stopped one guy since 2007, ONE GUY, and he had to sucker punch him to do it.

                    He was tagging the Ghost all over the ring and made it look easy (according to the vast majority of people) yet I didn't see the former lightweight hit the canvas but now he is going to KO/TKO the guy that same vast majority were calling a bully for picking on smaller guys? Same people were and are still saying he should move up to SMW and LHW....

                      I think the catchweight and the obvious stamina problem are going to be issues for Canelo late in the fight that Floyd will exploit...
