How can any sane boxing fan predict a Mayweather knockout?

[atomicsad]

Mayweather has very little power and no killer instinct. The only way he will get a knockout is if Alvarez gasses out in the late rounds. But sometimes elbows cause cuts so a tko might be possible.

Man, these people hoping for the knockout are clueless. Canelo showed crap stamina in the trout fight, yep, but Trout was 5000% more active than Mayweather ever will be, he's also bigger and stronger. Trying to avoid 6000 jabs a round is tiring.

Canelo won't be stopped, he won't get cut unless a headbutt, this fight is going to the score cards unless Floyd makes a mistake. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see Floyd can't knock out anything unless it's a sucker punch.

Floyd knows Canelo is a counter puncher too, you think when he wouldn't even engage Guerrero he will engage Canelo? Also, Mayweathers body shots are AVERAGE, he doesn't KO fighters with em or knock em down, let alone tire em.

Mayweather has no power yet people are hesitant to engage because they'll get countered. . . hmmm

I was reading an article on yahoo and Kevin Iole predicts Mayweather to win by knockout? WTF? You serious brah? Mayweather isn't knocking anybody out man, the guy pitty pats and has less than average power.

Let me say this, there is no way in hell Mayweather is getting a knockout. It will be the other way around. I'm 100% sure. I'm bumping this thread tomorrow for all the fools who fell for the Mayweather hype. All that cherrypicking is going to catch-up with him tomorrow.

Good luck brah!

It's possible. I say this because Canelo was hurt by a gatekeeper/career LW in Jose Cotto. I also saw him stunned by Cintron...and I really question Canelo's chin.

That has to be the biggest lie in boxing. Notice after they start to feel his power, the are hesitant to rush in......even iron chinned guys like Guerrero, Mosley and others.

Floyd isn't Matthysse, but he damn sure isn't Malignaggi (punching power wise).

[Rome-By-Ko]

His power is definitely underrated, he practically hurts all of his opponents at one point at least during the fights. But he won't risk going for the knockout.

You guys think if he has Alvarez hurt, he'll go in for the kill? No, he'll just see that he's got the fight in the bag and cruise the last few rounds.

I don't think so,but will Alvarez just be defeated without a fight??Or will he try to make a stand,hurt or not??I think he will try to make a stand,and go out on his shield if he has too..Which is why I could see him being ko'd..Not cause of Mayweathers aggression,but cause of Alvarez's aggression..

That's what I meant . . . I should have said . . . People say Mayweather has no power. . . I believe he has quite good power, not huge power, but respectable.

Canelo has had stamina problems in the past, he is being weight drained and could water log his body by trying to put on weight for the fight.

This will make Canelo slow sluggish and reduce his punch resistance.

All that being said, Floyd don't have the balls to go for the KO.

[Pacquiao'd]

The drained excuses have already started. Hah

Yeah because trout hit canelo as much as Floyd will. Smh
