    I give the man credit for taking this fight even if its at 152 thats much better than 150 or 147.
    So for that my hats off to him if he should win here and its not a shady decision Ill give him credit for the win no doubt about it. The problem we have here is that when Canelo beats him if its a UD rather than a stoppage and even if we know its dominant the *****sexuals will come back as they did when Trout was dominated and try to make a case for Floyd.

    But in all honesty I give Floyd all the credit in the world for taking this fight... Chances are he hurts his hand early in the fight and it gets stopped.

    See this is where you're wrong and will finally realize that it takes more than power and size to beat an elite and complete fighter like PBF. PBF has Canelo beat in the most important departments and his ring IQ defense and big fight experience are huge and will see him beating Canelo. Canelo will get a lesson in the art of hit and not get hit. PBF is no Trout he's no shot to **** Mosley he's the best fighter of this era and he will show you and Canelo why on September 14th.

    this is a repost of my other reply:

    The problem with Canelo is he that he is too big. I know you're thinking it's a huge advantage, but it really isn't. Mayweather had a reason for making him drop to 152. Oh, it's just 2 pounds, the couch experts will say. No, its HOLY ****, 2 POUNDS?!!!

    Canelo's terrible stamina isn't because he doesn't train, nor is it because he doesn't have good cardio. It's because when he drops down to that weight class (154), he leaves all his energy on the scales. Sure, he rehydrates, but he is a young growing man and for him it is much harder to go without nutrients than for an established adult, such as Margarito for instance. There is only one way to go for Alvarez, and that is to get the best nutritionist and the best physical conditioning coach, with connections to top notch pharma, and stick to the regime 24/7. And then he would be a beast, at 154. At 152, having to go below what he could only make by killing himself, he will be a lethargic old man that can only bang in spurts, if ever.

    Mayweather will win a lopsided decision, and it will not be pretty. But, unlike the haters, I do not blame him for this. After all, no one is forcing Alvarez, a naturally big man, to fight in a weight class where he outweighs everyone on the fight night. He chose to have an unfair advantage, and now is paying the price. Too bad his arms are so short, he would have moved to 160 by now, and would be a much stronger, livelier fighter. But with these short stubs for arms, he will get outboxed from the distance, and he knows it. Traut lost at most by 1 point (on my scorecard) and the reason was the long reach and large body frame of Austin. At 160, everyone will have long arms, big frame and much harder punches, so Canelo chose to exhaust, malnourish and hurt his growth as a man, just to avoid that scenario.

    Props to Mayweather though. He technically picked the best fighter possible. He literally stepped up his opposition to the level that his rabid fans insisted he was at. Just like Paquao did with Cotto, he will come in comfortable, well fed and at the peak of his strength. And just like Cotto, Alvarez will stumble in a ghost in a shell, desperate for a payday and hoping for the best.

    This, OnePunch is a ***** in disguise and tries to hide it by resenting him. Its an unnatural obsession one way or another.

    I don't know how people are so ****ing stupid to think it won't have some affect. Why do it, as doyle put it, if it wasn't a big deal? If weight wasn't an issue, the fight would be set at 154, as it says on Floyd's belt.

    Even if Canelo says he could make the weight, Chad Dawson said the same thing about fighting Ward. It turned out that Dawson looked like a damn zombie and was being dropped a whole lot.

    I agree Dawson looked like a shell of his self but 7 pounds is WAY more of a difference than 2. Plus Canelo can re-hydrate to his usual 165-170+ range. He is younger than Dawson and can lose that weight with less of an effect. But we will see.
