    It's possible.

    This is his biggest fight since Oscar, who lost that fight in the last four rounds. In that case, Oscar was unable to keep up the pace and the jab for the tail end of the fight.

    In this case, Canelo is even more known for running out of steam late.

    But Floyd is older than then and always cautious. Even if Canelo is tiring, he has the power to change things with one punch.

    I think Canelo will have some success early, and maybe even stop Floyd. But the most likely outcome is Floyd being ahead by the later rounds and playing it safe by cruising to a decision win.

    I am expecting Floyd to stop Canelo most likely in the last quarter.

    Either way it goes it will be really intresting to see how the decision goes. I oculd very well be that Mayweather gets robbed.

    That's possible too.

    But then again, the Mexican could get robbed.

    Castillo 1 was a close fight, not a robbery.

    But many, probably most, felt Castillo should have gotten the nod.

    Depends if Alvarez runs out of gas. If not and the fight appears to be close and competitive he will look to counter as much as possible. Taking unnecessary risks late if Alvarez is desperate is too foolish for Mayweather to do.

    If Alvarez does not gas, he probably will step up the pace like he did against Mosley, if Canelo gasses, I don't really know what to expect.

    Mayweather did not stop small Guerrero or worn Cotto, but he's going to stop a young lion with good punch resistence (or so it seems)?

    I don't see it personally.

    Cotto is smaller, fades, and he's chinny, but Mayweather did knock him out with two healthy hands.

    It won't happen against Alvarez...if it does...then damn.

    He's been around for years. People ignore him, I suggest you do as well. He is a known racist and an irrational hater of Floyd Mayweather.
