Where is the 13.5 pounds going to come from? It's going to take a toll on him

Except Canelo, now he is a coward

I'm willing to bet money you've never been socked in the mouth before,....

There's a few things that might make it a little more interesting. Canelo has always had stamina issues and if Jr can lean on him a bit throughout the fight, that should work to his advantage in the long run. Jr has been in with much bigger guys than Canelo so he may take the shots without much of a problem. What does Canelo do if Jr starts walking him down? Another thing is that Canelo doesn't have the best footwork in the world and will be available for Jr to hit.

I see this either being similar to Pacquiao-margarito or cotto-margarito. With the odds the way they are, I'm putting some money on jr.

Water weight. Most guys cut 10-12 pounds of water weight anyways. He's right on the edge of that already. Lose 1-2 pounds in a month and he will be a monster stepping into that ring. The diva is gonna get WORKED in this bout.

[mathed]

Just water.

That's right. People seem to be forgetting that this is a pre-workout weight. No cutting at all, no loss of weight from training, this is his normal weight at this point in time. Jacobs just rehydrated about 20 pounds or so against GGG while jr only has to cut 13 pounds of water weight.......he'll be fine.

[Jewish-Reptile]

That's actually not bad

If the dude can't be motivated to lose weight for ten million dollars nothing will motivate him.

The result is secondary.

[billeau2]

It's only water that's "cut" for the weigh in.

Look at that pic of him... you can't really believe that.

Glad to see he's taking this opportunity seriously

Yeah. He better have a lot of fat on his legs. He is skinny as hell already.
