Anyone think Mayweather is going to push hard late?

    I think he might be terrified of losing a bull**** decision to behind him, one of the biggest moneymakers in the game... And may therefore put his foot on the gas late in the fight.

    This is also seen as one of his most meaningful fights in several years. I'd argue more meaningful than the Hatton match which was huge in itself. I'm wondering if he's looking to stamp his "great"/place in history with this one.

    We saw the ODLH fight being unnecessarily close.

    I'm not sure if Golden Boy is eying up a potential rematch between Alvarez/Mayweather that would easily break all previous boxing records money wise. I don't know the appeal to that fight however if Mayweather wins a boring one sided decision...

    Thoughts?

    I really do feel he's gunna look for the ko, especially if canelo gets tired. Late in fights he usually just coasts to the decision, i dnt think we'l see that this time. If his hands stay ok he'l be walkin canelo down

    I think he will try to close the show late. Time to put the ! on his career.
    I do not think it will stop with this fight. I think his last 5 fights will all be like this one against better guys who seem to have a chance to win.

    If Canelo is at all competitive and is still very dangerous down the stretch I wouldnt expect Floyd to take additional risks unless he felt behind and I think we cant expect anything different from Floyd

    It appears that Void does not even have to work in this fight, as he appears to own Vegas. If you were a judge would you score against Void? Would you be banned from boxing if you did? Mosley had Void out on his feet, could have knocked Void out, but suddenly quit throwing punches. If it were late in the fight I could understand as perhaps Mosley was tired, but he wasn't tired, how could he have been? So did someone tell Mosley that if he accidently hurt Void he should suddenly quit punching? To do such is forbidden? This is an enigma..............

    We all know that Void can't lose any fight, afterall, he has way too much power in Vegas.............Ask Castillo and Oscar.....................

    I think Floyd's gonna be far more aggressive than we've seen from him in years. He won't be stupid or anything but he'll definitely be more active with the jab and use feints more aggressively. I do not, as many have said on here, believe that he'll be on his bike all night. He's going to use his feet to create angles to punch, not to run.

    Really doubt it.

    I think Floyd will think twice to engage in this fight and I expect him to have a few awkward moments.
    He will be box and move in the last rounds to bring home the (I expect about 8-4) points decision.

    It appears that Void will remind the judges and referee who their boss is, just ask Castillo and Oscar....................

    I don't know, I just have a feeling this might be the Corrales moment of his "second" career.

    A real exclamation point fight against a much bigger, more powerful guy.

    Mayweather does great, subtle bodywork in there and I think very little of Canelo's stamina.
