    Canelo is a great boxer but he’s borderline overrated since he never performs against boxers with great skills.
    No, man. A 36 year old Canelo is gonna be a SMW. A 23 year old Floyd is at Junior Light. P4P Floyd will always be better, but that's a huge weight difference to overcome.

    Canelo is very good, a pre-prime Canelo was roughly as good as Lara and a prime Canelo was nearly on par with a slightly aged Golovkin.. kid's a very good fighter, but Floyd he ain't.

      Would young Floyd have been smart enough to know to drain Canelo and win on the scale?

        Canelo would squash him like a little bug. I don't think Canelo is comfortable fighting at 160 right now. He is more of a 168 pound boxer. If he is still fighting at age 36 which I very much doubt, then he will have even more experience in the ring. Mayweather was very good at 22 but he had not peaked yet and he was fighting at 130 I think. So you have a past prime Canelo who weighs at least 165 rock hard pounds, has an iron jaw, and is a wicked puncher especially to the body. He would have the experience of over 60 pro fights.How the hell could Mayweather win? he wouldn't have a chance in hell. He couldn't hurt Canelo and Canelo would hurt him badly with every punch. This would not be the seasoned welterweight 36 year old Floyd schooling the 23 year old drained jr middleweight Canelo. This is a veteran seasoned powerhouse Canelo who is a 168 pounder against a green 22 year old Mayweather who fights at 130. Canelo by KO in the 1st round and it's a silly matchup.

          It's just hypothetical if they're in the same weight class.

          Young Floyd Mayweather is the best boxer in the last 20 years. Haney's the poor man's Pretty Boy Floyd, look at how everyone thinks he's the best thing since slice bread. 22-yr old Floyd was Haney on vibranium.

            Wrong. It's his fantasy fight so he can make it as ridiculous as he wants to make it. Where do you get the idea Canelo ourweighed Floyd by 20 pounds in the their fight? No evidence or proof that Canelo outweighed him by 20 pounds and 10 pounds is more realistic.

              A 36 year old Canelo is at LHW.

              But for erroneous fiction sake, Canelo would hit Floyd the way NFL kickers do a 50 yard kick if that’s even possible
              You probaly said the same thing in their first fight

                So PAC and Canelo will have proven “roid cycles” of about 50lbs over, past 35years of age?

                Or Toney or RJJ? So it was impossible for SRL to ever have been on stuff nor JCC because they’re fit today? And we can prove all that because there was no advanced drug testing in those days?

                Don’t get owned bruh.

                    At which weight? A 36 year old Canelo likely won't be able to get under 160 and be at his best. A 160 pound Floyd won't be at his best.
