    Cavello. Chavez Jr. is a drained, dead man walking (even w/ Memo).

    I voted Canelo but I expect a good fight. Lot of Pride on the line in this one

    I think Canelo will be too quick on the draw, have more offensive arsenals and much better defense. The only chance Chavez has would be forcing Canelo to fight in a war. If he is motivated and the weight drained doesn't affect him that much, we might have a fight.
    Still pick Canelo by UD.

    Super star in front of Jr name is a little too much IMO.
    GOLDENTOY has drained that inactive fighter to an all time low just so Canelo can impress the masses Khan style.

    I like Canelo and can't judge him too badly for making this easy money. It's the right fight but with the wrong parameters in place IMO. Jr has a small , very small window of opportunity to make this a dog fight early.

    Can't wait to hear the ring chatter after this KO from Oscar and the kid.

    Damn, no draw option or robbery option? I think it's going to be a competitive fight, and goes the distance.

    I'm a huge fan of both and just hope for a good fight, where the best man wins, and wins fairly!

    Canelo but I wouldn't mind seeing JC superstar celebrate with his son like he did with Omar last week

    Canelo probably wins, but I'm rooting for Chavez Jr to knock him the F out.

    Almost as much actually as I was rooting for Maidana to knock Broner.

    Rooting for Chavez, but expect Alvarez to win by 10th or 11th round stoppage.

    I am picking Canelo to win. But, a disaster may happen for the red head if Chavez proves to be too much for him size wise. Will Jr be drained? Will Jr be able to push him back and beat him up on the ropes? How much will Canelos power carry up to 165? Will Jr feel the sting of Canelos punches or will he laugh to himself thinking "you hit like a girl compared to Maravilla and Fonfara"

    Chavez may even pass out tto be honest. He is a ghost at this weight. Disgusting fight.

    Anybody hear if there is a second weigh-in with a cap on how much they can gain? If not Chavez will probably re-hydrate to 190.
