  1. He will punch harder, but his punches will be slower.

    the roids will hurt him. as roid use continues the joints begin to wear out, namely the ligaments, from increased muscle tension. wouldn't surprise me if he gets a tear in his shoulder this fight and has to quit on his stool.
     
  4. Hurt. Canelo is faster at this weight

    Weighing at 152 isn't bulking up much at all, Mayweather will be sharp as he always is.

    i think any changes to floyds weight will be very carefully calculated.

    he wouldnt be using steroids that created water retention,
    btw ligament damge is far more likely if dramatically greater weights are used in training, which i very much doubt.
    doesnt matter, both fighters will have a level playing field as canelo`s just as likely to be using PEDS to boil his weight down and not lose dramatic amounts of muscle tissue in the process.
    world class fighters should be getting world class advice..
    gonna be a cracking fight and fascinating to see if fighting at your proper weight counts.

    Floyd is going to do a number on Canelo.

    Floyd is all about speed and timing , I dont think he has bulked up at all , an extra 5 lbs is not bulking up.

    I dont think he added any weight, I just think he went out and ate him some food before they weighed in likely he did it to **** with everybody
