    I think he will, but I really don't want to see him at 154-155 anymore. He's a big dude and should move north 6 pounds and take care of business with GGG.BUT....

    He's already stated he will stay at 154 for a few more fights, so I guess that kind of puts a halt to that idea.. :hsughwiggle:

    I expect him to look and act similar to the Floyd fight at 152. Might want to put a chair next to that scale,

    i think he will make weight, he will look like a complete fool if he can't

    also im almost positive i read somewhere there will be no drug testing for the fight, meaning canelo can use furosemide to he's hearts content, make weight and come into the ring around 180

    I didn't think he'd make weeks ago but now there is no VADA testing I am not so sure, Canelo might well make it.

    ya smith was a fool to take this fight without vada testing

    imo with vada testing canelo would either be weight drained and weakened at 154 or else he would have failed to make weight and smith would still keep he's title in defeat

    at the time smith made the right decision because he wanted the money, but since brook is now moved up in weight he would have a massive fight in england against him for a world title

    If he can, why shouldn't he? Why is the expectation on him to move up in weight but not GGG, for example?

    C'mom Canelo's team are experts boiling you down sure he will make the 154 I think the question should be how many pounds he will gain Saturday night.

    But I think Canelo detractors are hinting at him missing the weight limit. And I think they're basing that on comments made by Smith and his team in regards to Canelo not making the weight. That's why I asked the question.

    We all know the cutting game and Canelo might lack courage....Ummmm..cough cough.."I fight you right now"....GGG:laufband:

    Canelo is a pro so of course he will make the cut:naughty2:
