    My EXACT thoughts when I read this. I have felt sinse the signing of this fight and still do, that if it's a close fight, Mayweather will not get the decesion, as messed up as that sounds. Canelo is Golden Boy's current cash cow that they are banking on. Mayweather is not GBP so they do not eat as much off him, even if he makes the events bigger and better, they are trying to make Canelo have that marketing draw. Smart fight for GBP to pursue, cause Canelo doesn't need to win to get a win.

      Canelo is very slippery, whenever he tried to slip punches against Trout, he couldn't touch him
      Please stop boosting. Canelo's defence is not that great, Trout is an underachiever, as that fight proved. SHOULD have KO'd the gassed Canelo who took a total of 4.5 rounds of that whole fight off, smh.

      Canelo's defence and Floyd's defence should not ever be mentioned in the same sentence unless that sentence is "Canelo's defence and Floyd's defence should not ever be mentioned in the same sentence"

        But as good as he is defensively, he has already lost to Castillo. So on any given day anything can happen.
        But if Floyd wins, loses or draws, I agree with hatton that at the end of the fight Floyd will probably acknowledge it would have been his toughest fight to date.
        Your silly and biased opinions do not matter, Mayweather did not lose to Castillo. He is undefeated. The rematch of that fight proves it. If Castillo fans/Floyd haters can claim he should have won the 1st fight, he should have been able to make the 2nd one REMOTELY close. Get your boxing IQ up and stop picking based on favorites, make your assessments based on fighters skills.

          Floyd is hard to hit but he's not invincible. With correct timing and speed canelo will get his in. Cotto was able to get a few good shots in and I think canelo is way more durable than cotto. A lot of Floyd fans is underestimating canelo's skills. Not sure if they're doing it on purpose since they recognized the threat.

              Floyd won the second fight, but he lost the first. The reason he won the second fight is that Castillo was demoralized and couldn't pick himself up for it. Floyd probably felt invincible in the second fight and thought no one can decision him, cos he lost the first so convincincly yet still got the decision. Floyd would have gained an extra yard pace and second win.d.

              But Alvarez must take note of hattons words that he must be prepared to be shocked how hard it is to hit Floyd and what he did in training isn't working and not get demoralized. Persevere.

                    Obviously, you didn't watch the fight. Everyone knows Castillo won. Get over it.
