    Comments Thread For: Lucas Matthysse expects Canelo to give Floyd problems

    Despite asking several boxing figures for their thoughts on the Floyd Mayweather vs. Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez super fight, I’ve had trouble finding anyone who gives the young champion from Jalisco, Mexico a clear edge in the matchup.

    Mayweather’s combination of ring acumen, experience, and talent are just too much for most people to overlook despite all of Alvarez’s upside as a prizefighter.

    During a recent swing through the Indio Boys and Girls Club in Southern California, I was able to get some input on the fight from one of the hottest names in the sport, Lucas Matthysse, and the Argentinean’s answers did surprise me a bit.

    The WBC interim junior welterweight champion at 140 pounds, Matthysse will face off with WBA/WBC champion Danny Garcia on the Mayweather-Alvarez undercard on Sept. 14 inside of the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. [Click Here To Read More]

              With the exceptions of, Hatton, Marquez, Jesus Chavez, and Carlos Hernandez. Floyd has always fought bigger opponents.

                    The thing is I don't think Canelo is planning on coming in that heavy like he was for Trout. So technically he won't be too much bigger than Ortiz was, maybe even smaller given him and Floyd are already the same height an when you factor in Floyd's reach advantage he's technically a bit taller than Canelo boxing wise..
