    Yeah, 153.5lbs, but for such a big kid I think the weight will still make a difference, otherwise the fight would have been at 154. Team Mayweather are smart, make no mistake. They know the 2lbs will affect Canelo, hence their insistence of a catchweight.

    Funny...cause that's the exact gameplan he and his team will come with. Just my opinion.

    I do i think 152 is not that bad but still he could just fight him at 154 because he told he wants to fight the best at their best!

    Great fight!

    I think most boxing fans respected Mayweather as a skilled ballerina long before this bout was signed. A fighter? Hmmm ..... maybe a long time ago.

    Canelo at 152 is just about the safest high-profile fight Floyd could take.
    He'll just dance around at a safe distance, and collect his check.
    I'm bored already.

    I honestly thought this fight would never be made. I have to give Mayweather huge respect. I might be getting ahead of myself here but hopefully the winner will fight Martinez!!!

    This sums up Void perfectly.
    Except that i cannot respect a "fighter" that whines like a little ***** for whatever reason, and whose entire "legacy" is a fake.
    I simply cannot respect Void, he is the anthitesis to whatever a boxer should be as a person.

    I think most people respect him for his abilities in the ring.
    And I respect him even more for taking on Canelo, I didn't think it would happend, but I'm happy to be proving wrong. I do hope that his last fights are the same caliber opponents. I do believe that he will teach Canelo a lesson, but still big ups for taking him on.

    That being said, he is not an GOAT, but that's another story.

    At 154 I would have respected him - though still quietly impressed he at least took on the fight.

    **** poll. Seriously, do you people ever make polls with neutral wording. I don't think neutral is in *****'s vocabulary. No, it's catchweight. If it was Pacquiao, everyone would be shitting on him right now. Since it's Fraud, everyone loves it and licks his ass. It seriously gets old.
