If all the experts say that Alvarez has zero chance to beat Floyd, then why should

    anyone waste their money on such a huge mismatch? I was thinking about buying this PPV fight for $75, but for a mismatch? Someone on another thread wrote that the same fight is only $17 in the UK! Why is that? Do they think American fans are stupid?! I was going to buy the fight until tonight. The experts have convinced me not to buy it and I imagine they are convincing so many others..........

    Are the experts telling we boxing fans not to buy this fight without coming out into the open about it? It is a hint?

    If I do buy this PPV, it will be only because I really want to see Matthysse Vs. Garcia, which should be a war while it lasts..........Matthysse Vs. Garcia should have been on it's own PPV or top fight on regular Showtime...........perhaps that's the reason they put this fight on the undercard? Just in case the fans wake up?

    Most fans are smart enough to know what they want and make their own decision. Others need the experts to tell them what to do.

    The main reason why I'm paying some money to watch the fight is because of Garcia vs Matthysse. They put this on the undercard because of the huge risk of Canelo vs Mayweather being a damn bore (to the general public). As a big boxing fan, the small price is worth the entertainment for me.

    If Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez is a mismatch then what does that tell you about Mayweather ? He is nearly on the same level as Roy Jones was in his prime. I personally dont think its a mismatch. Canelo is a worthy challenger.

    Matthysse vs Garcia. Nuff said.


    And of course Canelo has a chance. Mayweather is on the wrong side of 35, and Canelo is entering his prime. Mayweather is the just and rightful heavy favorite, but of course Canelo has a shot.

    Canelo stops throwing and takes to many breaks no way he wins

    I don't know why PPV prices are so much higher in the US.

    Here in the UK, I don't think any fight has ever been priced higher than £20, which is about $32 at today's exchange rate.

    Funny how a lot of people were saying Floyd would never take the fight with Canelo and that Canelo would be the toughest challenge out there for him, yet now that the fight is made nobody much seems to give Canelo a chance. By the time Mayweather wins (if he wins) Canelo will be another cherry-pick hype job who was weight-drained.
