    Cotto did well with his Pressure by pinning Mayweather against the ropes. Now imagine a Young Canelo, with the size advantage unleashing those 3-4 punch combinations on Mayweather against the ropes. Canelo has underrated speed and accuracy too. Mayweather has nothing to trouble Canelo. His only hope is to dance around the ring picking his shots and hoping he doesn't get trapped against the ropes.

    Canelo is going to eat this Hype-Job up. Mayweather is in a lot of trouble.
    Losing three rounds tops is going life and death with somebody?

    I wonder what you think about your hero getting outworked for half the fight against Austin Trout.

      I think he can be if Canelo doesn't have the right Gameplan...he is not as skilled or experienced as Cotto

      I think it could be like the Baldomir vs Mayweather fight personally if Canelo don't have the right gameplan and just can't figure out Mayweather

        Mayweather Sr. has been quoted saying Mayweather Jr. should press the action this fight, which in my opinion would be a terrible gameplan against Canelo who's very good at fighting in the clinch and fighting on the ropes.

        And comparing Cotto to Canelo is like day and night. What leads him to believe he'll be easeir. Canelo is extremly skilled and stable. He bigger and will hit alot harder then Cotto.

        I don't know but Floyd doesn't seem to be focused on the task at hand. Just my two cents.
        What I don't understand is WHY does everyone take Floyd's comments so seriously? He plays mind games just as good as he fights!!

          Why does everybody take everything Floyd says so seriously. Floyd plays mind games just as good as he fights. He knew that this latest remark would spark up some sh** and it did.

            Im truly disappointed in those of you who still bet against Floyd.

            After being wrong 44 times at this point its obvious some of you are just
            hopefuls. I suggest you all start figuring out who #46 is cause Canelo is
            not beating Floyd. I would actually bet my house on that if the odds were
            worth anything. The dead give away is the amount of people who bet on
            Canelo vs those who put their money on Canelo. There is a vast difference.

            Shame on some of you.

                  Canelo takes too much time during rounds to rest, I don't think he is really boxing. Cotto's best round was the 8th where he had Floyd in the ropes, bullied him like crazy while going to the body and back to the head. I don't think Canelo has the stamina to do that, Cotto obviously didn't but I don't think Canelo does either.

                    Are you referring to Canelo Alvarez?

                      Cotto was more fleet footed against Floyd than Canelo was against Trout. Canelo showed good head and upper body defense, but he was heavy on his feet. I think Canelo will put on a better display against Floyd than Cotto did, but i also think Floyd will perform better than he did against Cotto as well.
