Has anyone ever come into a fight with Floyd this confident?

[TexasBoxing]

While I don't particularly think it will effect the outcome of the fight, I just found it really odd how confident Canelo is going into this fight. It's usually pretty easy to spot someone who is scared ****less and then puts up a good front. Canelo really seems to think he is going to win this and doesn't seem to have a worry. Has anyone ever come at Floyd with that level of confidence?

Hatton genuinely believed he could win

Cotto was confident. Ortiz Ghost had fake confidence. I think Hatton was confident as well. I think this will be a tough fight for Floyd and he could very well lose.

This is true. I remember pre-fight he seemed pretty convinced, but then once the fight started and he realized after round 1 that he had no answers, he just shut down.

They are all confident. What they tend to realize is that Floyd is a lot stronger than they think. For some reason his opponents seem to somehow not realize that he's strong.

I was just gonna say this but still canelo still seems like he has something alil extra when it comes to conifidence compared to most of Mayweathers opponents, seems like he see's/knows something that others didn't..

Hatton comes to mind. Judging by how his life went downhill after that loss i honestly believed he thought he could win. I wouldn't be surprised if canelo was cashing out with this fight he has more years and higher weight classes to build his true legacy.

You must've watched a different fight.

Like Floyd says 'its different watching from the outside in'.

I'm pretty sure that Jose Luis Castillo was the most confident opponent Mayweather ever faced, and with good reason. That guy was supremely talented throughout his entire career.
