Look at all the clowns reaching for the "drained" card to save face lol. They'll never admit that they thought Floyd wouldn't take the fight and when he did, reality set in and they knew Canelo would lose lol. The catch weight saved them, hence their posts. So now instead of owning up, they hold on to weight. Canelo does not look bad in this picture at all.

Jajaaa!!! 23 year old Canelo, slow, with an average KO% and struggling boxing skills shoudlnt even be fighting Floyd. The catchweight is Floyd's insurance that there's no way this kid even has a punchers chance.
This is just food for the ignorant mass that just sees a big kid and goes "Dat be a big Mexican, da boy be biiggg n' strongg! He be undefeated?? Dammnn boy must be goood!!
BS its a slow kid, with average KO power and no experience. Oh, and he's looking straight out of a concentration camp. This is going to be one hard fight for Floyd. He will need all his box skills to avoid touching this boy until round 6 ot 7, otherwise he'll faint in the middle of the ring without even taking a punch!
Hang on Canelo! please dont go down just yet!!!

Look, the fight was made and both teams have no issue with the weight so why should we? I prefer Canelo at 154 and I prefer Mayweather at 147. In order to make the fight they agreed to...not 150, but 152.

Canelo looks good despite what some posters are saying. He shouldn't look drained already if he's at 157.4. He looks very strong and powerful to me and if Floyd underestimates Canelo's speed, it could be lights out. I do not mind a CW in order to make for an epic battle. Remember, anything at 154 and about 147 is Super WW. You can't even fight at 148 for a WW fight, so this is a Super WW title fight.

Canelo is on pace with his last fight against Trout. He has to lose 5.4 lbs in a week. Against Trout he had to lose 5.2lbs in a week. http://www.boxingscene.com/trout-157...-weigh---64484

At the weigh-in for Canelo's last fight he was 153.5. So he is being asked to lose 1.5 more than his last fight, which shouldn't be a problem. http://www.boxingscene.com/weights-c...5325-lb--64606

This is a pic of Canelo at (weigh-in) 153.5.


I think this is a 50/50 fight regardless of weight. I would prefer that Floyd wins, especially since his fights make for big social gatherings once or twice a year just like the Superbowl. I doubt Mayweather's fights will be this big after a loss.

Lol @ these weight and nutrition experts aka Canelo fans looking for a built in excuse.

The excuse is already built in like you say and it's just pathetic.

I don't think the pick showed up and I don't feel like trying to figure it out, but just look at pics from his previous weigh-ins.

Mister Saul Alvarez looks outstandingly good... Mister Alvarez should keep up the good work. In case he keeps up, Mister Alvarez would reign over the 154 division for a long, long time.

Funny Floyd and all his fans sing a different tune now! When he and all his fans wouldn't give Manny props when he beat Cotto saying Cotto wasn't at his best! And Cotto is one of my favorite fighters.

I can't beleive the hypocricy! I take that back everything is justified when it comes to Floyd!

Manny bought Cotto down from 154 to 147, that's a big deal, this kids got to come down two pounds and Floyd is tiny man, get a grip. No excuses.

He does not look drained at all to me.

He's not.

The haters are just getting their excuses ready for launch at the weigh-in.

Correction: Cotto weighed in at 145lbs. Two pounds south of 147.

look at his stomach it is already ****** in which shows he has been cutting

water weight all week.

if you are cutting weight for 2 weeks that is 2 weeks you are weakening

yourself..

for the last two weeks canelo is skipping meals, hitting the sauna, jogging in a sweat suit and floyd

is training like normal.....


if you dont get this i dont know what to tell you...


when you are 7% body fat you only have so much water to cut


ask dlh when he fought pac


75$ to watch floyd pot shot and bicycle to an easy victory while canelo is

light headed and slugging around, no thanks...

Dont waste your time man. The fanboys here are completely blind. They dont see this which is dead obvious. they dont see the cherry pickign nor do they see the ducks.
Why is Canelo doing this then? Why accept the catchweight? I can think of a million reasons.
