    Imo, no.

    Made the weight like a champ. Didn't look weak, didn't have to re-weigh, didn't have to take his shorts off.

    Good on Canelo.

    To me he looked too cut.

    I don't think a man of his build is meant to have such defined muscle (his abs looked so defined), so to me he was a little drained.

    But at the same time he didn't look like a walking zombie like Chavez Jnr does sometimes, so he is not drained to he point that he is not going to perform well

    Also body language wise he seemed a little tired to me.

    We will see.

    He looked drained, listless and tired.

    nobody can be sure by just looking at a fighter. He could have lost something by making the weight or not. Even if he is not: Canelo was Training to make the weight. I wonder how much time Canelo lost at Training to make the weight. While Mayweather only Trains for the fight. Canelo will be what at fight night? 170? Shows how much weight he has to cut of.

    No reports or rumors of Canelo struggling to make weight.

    Canelo looked fine. A Mayweather victory and he deserves the accolades over beating a young, skilled, legit 154 pounder.

    Imo Canelo has a legitamate chance at victory. I think its going to be a fantastic fight.

    Pretty much this.
    Except Canelo's chance for a legit win seems slimmer than him on the scale

    He looked like Julio Chesar Chavez at weight ins, a zombie.
    Look at his abs zone, it's the zone that shows the most.
    His face looked like a vampire sucked out half his blood.
    Not only that, but he looked weak moving around, and always sitting down.
    He really looked heavily drained.

    SMH. If he struggled to make 1.5lbs less than his last fight, he is too big for the weight class

    His body looked pretty good, but there was something sluggish in the way he moved, smiled, talked. He seemed weak so yeah, to me he looked drained.

    How do you think he gets down from his normal weight? Of course he was drained:lol:

    He will water up today and will enter the ring with 165-170 pounds as usual, he will be fine

    Should he have looked like he's 170 lbs at the weigh in? If he looks drained at 152 then how does he look at 154?
