It seems team mayweather and team canelo have both agreed to fight at 154 but will be kept secrect for promotional porpoise. In fact canelo will come in at the super welterweight(154) and as expected the media will go live around the world to get that much more interest for casual fans to tune in by brainwashing them on how canelo's chances are much greater now for a victory. That beign said, if mayweather wins he will have beating a guy who came in 2 pounds over weight agreement an will make his victory that much better. Toughts.
Mayweather told me that Tupac isn't really dead and is going to perform before the weigh in to generate more interest in the fight. Thoughts?
It does actually sound like a good idea. I don't know how much it would matter but there would be a boost of sales possibly. With the 2lbs gone,the adavantage would look to be more for Alvarez. Many people see the catchweight as Floyd's ace in the hole. Good prediction I hope it comes true!
Canelo has no advantage even if he comes at 180lbs, he is better off getting psyched into lower weights to ensure he is trained his best.
Makes no sense how him coming in at 152 would hype this fight up even more. If anything, him fighting at the full JMW limit would probably be seen as being more enticing for the boxing fans and media. The catchweight, which was the idea of Canelo's management team actually puts a little damper to this wonderful bout.
