    What are you trying to say here?

    Isn't that true for any ATG in any sport?

    Void owns Vegas. It's totally impossible for Void to lose a decision in Vegas period. Void's judges would never score against him and Void's referee will protect him if he needs him. Boxing is crooked most of the time.........

    It involves two superstars, so it is a superfight, not at all meaningless. Sadly, I doubt it'll make me **** bricks like Pac-Marquez IV. There will be too much concern for loosing the "0". Same hype/action ratio as for Haye-Klitschko, with probably the same UD win going to the better boxer. But we can't help not watching, can we? :D

    Considering this is only his second fight out of the six he's promised, I don't see him receiving a loss unless he actually loses. No gifts in this fight is what I'm saying. There's too much money invested in Mayweather for him to have a loss this early.

    floyd wins. an i think it will be kinda easy looking. he might even make canelo look like a big punching bag and floyds just gonna light him up.

    floyd for his age is still looking great

    As usual, prior to the fight Floyd's haters will hype the opponent as they have consistently done with Hatton, Mosley, Guerrereo, and now Canelo and GGG.
    Following the fight, after Floyd wins with ease, these same haters always have the same habit of trying to deminish these same opponents they weeks earlier were hyping.
    According to the usual pattern of these haters, once mayweather shows Canelo to be the lightweight everyone should know he is, they will then begin hyping GGG as the mayweather defeating opponent.
    They are wrong as usual because GGG has only a punchers chance against Mayweather, and Floyd beats these type of fighters with ease.
    Ya'll should face facts. The only way Mayweather will lose before he retires is to place a big bet against himself and throw the fight. Otherwise, there is no fighter out there that has a real chance of beating him.

    not meaningless at all! :good

    Pac-Cotto was fought at a catchweight therefore it was a meaningless fight :good


    Canelo-floyd will be at a catchweight but now it's OK :nut:rofl

    I agree with you for the most part, There is no one that would be the favorite against floyd, but GGG would give him a little trouble. He is a strong talented natural middleweight. I don't think Alvarez is a hypejob, he is a good fighter he just is not at Mayweather level, then again who is. I think it would take a fighter with real one punch ko power. Matthysse,GGG,maybe garcia. Alvarez does not have explosive power, but he can hurt floyd, if he gets careless which he never does!

    don't worry your pretty little head about roid gayweather. in this fight the old mongoose will give the young cobra a boxing lesson. i think the defeat will be meaningless in terms of canelo's legacy in Sport. A loss to mayweather will hurt canelo's career about as much as young bernard hopkins loss to roid jones jr hurt hopkins legacy.

    This fight is not meaningless, it's a "pass the torch" kind of fight which are great for the sport and has been going on for decades.
    Only difference is, Floyd is the favorite and (for the most part) moving up to the challengers weight class.

    This is equivalent to the opportunity that Oscar gave Floyd. But I believe Floyd still has enough left to school Canelo.

    Canelo has the best win at 154 atm its the only fight that made sense
    Maybe if Lara beats Trout then Canelo then Lara would be a better win for Floyd

    This is true man, its a great fight but only because Floyd is aging. It has nothing on the potential 2010 could have been
