Did the Catchweight Affect Canelo during the Mayweather Fight?

[MindBat]

Canelo currently has a Floyd Mayweather poster on the ceiling directly above his bed which he prays to before falling asleep.

Links? Sorce? He told me so.

nope canelos diet isn't that much different in this fight

Same as I said with the Cotto-Pac fight, the outcome would have been the same, but for the sake of legacy and/or a win without an asterik, I would have like to see Mayweather fight him at 154 so no excuses could be made.

I don't think the catchweight made much difference tbh, he simply hasn't got the skillset to cause Floyd any problems.

If it didn't make a difference why did Floyd asked for the catch weight in the first place? Why not just fight him at 154

Im not much of a floyd fan but I think it was canelos teams fault for the worst game plan ever

[icha]

yes it affected canelo, but not the outcome of the fight...
bunch of people here are answering the wrong question..

[PeterNeversoft]

If there was any affect, it wasn't positive for Canelo

[Rome-By-Ko]

LMAO,no..Floyd is just a different class of fighter..Alvarez had time to prepare for the weight,that was not the problem..Floyd just being better was the issue..

According to Floyd Mayweather and Ellerbe Canelo's still an undefeated fighter.


"He was a dead man walking when he went into the ring," Ellerbe said. "The casual fan doesn't know what difference one or two pounds can make when a fighter is already down to weight. Fighters know."
