    Listen neither man can afford to let this go to the scorecards and both know it..hence the ramped up talk about both men wanting KO's in this fight. I don't think Mayweather trusts the judges in this fight because of ODH's influence and Canelo doesn't trust them because this is Floyd's backyard afterall. Personally a robbery on the cards of either man would not surprise me one bit. Out of curiosity what betting odds have ya'll seen? I saw 13-1 turn into 3-1 in favor of Floyd in under a month.

      My belief is that Floyd will be pressured and hurt a couple times but will dig deep, pull out everything he has and wins a solid decision. But if Canelo hits his prime and Floyd ages, things could be different. If Floyd loses, I honestly belive it will be because of the fact that age finally caught up with him.

        This fight has the perfect recipe for an upset. A bigger opponent with punching power, speed, and, youth against an aging fighter who should be more deteriorated than he is at 36. Canelo is not nearly as skilled as Mayweather but who is? Probably the closest skill wise was Judah. Yet at the end of the day Mayweather was able to beat him comfortably. Canelo is also the perfect opponent for Mayweather. He's not a dirty fighter. He won't have to worry about headbutts, Canelo draping all over him tiring him out, or Canelo chasing him all over the ring like Guererro or Baldomir. In a straight up fight against any opponent you always have to bet on Mayeather. However, if Canelo has real punching power, and one of those random punches that always seem to catch Mayweather in the opening rounds land flush, it could be a game changer. If that doesn't happen, Mayweather wins easily.

          Forget your plans, just be ready to land first and not get hit in return. It's easier said than done, but that's what it takes to beat Floyd unless you can land a perfect punch and KO him.

            So if Canelo beats Floyd he's a Mexican ATG, if he doesn't he's a mediocre fighter who claims Trout to be his number 1 victory.

            Yeah beating Floyd is not enough.

              There will never be a rematch. Canelo is outgrowing the division.

                Just thought I check your punk ass in the process.

                The haterz wish this fact didn't exist.

                    Mayweather said it's not about weight or size. But i have a strong feeling that this match will looks like Canelo Vs Josesito the 2nd. Elerbe said canelo's Management is idiot. AT the end of the day he'll be realized that he is the true idiot to let his fighter fight a natural junior middleweiight as dangerous as canelo at 152.Mayweather SR got a reason for insisting to fight at 147 or no fight during the first negotation. I believe that canelo flush will hit floyd at some point and that will be a game changer.And he or everyone Will soon realize this is a complete mismatch Just as De lahoya Hopkins or if Roy Jones jr. Had ever fight Lennox Lewis during his reigning. Trout is a very sound and elusive technical boxer but he got caught by clean uppercut several Time. The only reason he wont Down because he is a very big middleweiight himself. Yes floyd is no Trout and is more skilled. Okay,Just Said it like this. If Trout had been caught for 6 times,let assume that floyd Will get caught at least 1 or 2, eventually. On the other hand canelo Will have no respect for Mayweather PowerShot Just like he did to Mosley. Just my oppinion.. well,seeing the bet to drop to 3:1 in less than 1 month i consider as a premonition.

                      All you get is one chance, dont blow it Canelo. As long as you put up a fight, we the fans will accept a loss or a win, but theres gotta be a fight. No running, not holding, just straight fighting to get paid. Let the fans win, dont just take an easy paycheck, let the fans hard earned money get compensated. Real fans buy the fights, others get the internet free stuff, lol.
