Does Floyd's athleticism / speed cancel out Canelo's size?

so having 22 pounds over your opponent means nothing at all?

 

Yes it does. I always said that if Floyd stayed in the pocket and fought Canelo trying to walk him down he gets beat, but he is not fighting that way anymore now that daddy is back in his corner.

"We ain't taking no mo punishment in that ring" Mayweather Sr

Floyd giving movement and straight boxing that ass he will clown Canelo. 12 rounds to 0 and maybe Canelo wins 2. Maybe

 

Canelo is sound enough technically to touch Floyd from time-to-time so it depends on Floyd's ability to withstand that, especially early. If he can as I expect, it will turn into Floyd-Guerrero II.

 

this is why i think he brought his father back. he knew he would end up fighting canelo.

 

Bingo!

Shocking to see a ******* get it right for once!

Its not pressure or boxing alone that will beat Mayweather. Its a mix of both.
The fighter to do it however has to have good boxing IQ as well be physically strong enough to toss Mayweather around during infighting.

The weight Canelo climbs the ring with definitley will serve him to wear down and neutralize Mayweather.

Size, strenghth, power, to got with an adequate enough ring IQ is something Mayweather has'nt fought since Castillo at 135 lbs.

That size, strenghth and power is something Canelo has to work with to attempt to neutralize Mayweather's speed and quickness.
