    They keep saying on this forum that 152 isn't Alvarez best weight. If Floyd wins its not at Saul's best weight. What if Saul wins, is this Floyd's best weight? Floyd is best at 147 isn't he? So why would Alvarez get credit for beating Floyd not at his best weight but Floyd not get it for beating Alvarez?

    Easier to put on weight than lose weight mate.

    Plus Floyd is P4P #1 and self proclaimed all time great. He should be challenging himself.

    No, what keeps him in this weight are his boxing skills, thats like saying if Danny Garcia or Tim Bradley have any business at 154..

    Catchweight means neither guy is at their best weight doesn't it? The disadvantages go both ways but because of the bias and Mayhaters all we see here is poor Canelo. People actually feel sorry for the guy coming in 20 lbs heavier than his opponent....unbelievable!

    No.

    This is a fair fight: Mayweather had to come up 5 and Canelo dropped 2. (Really 1 if you consider he weighed 153 his last fight. It wasn't a large stretch.)

    I am ****ing stoked!!! Chicken has been marinating all night fellas. Got the BBQ and get together today. Going to be good times!!! Hope everybody has a great day and enjoys the fights! :bbb:bbb

    This... I'll enjoy watching Floyd fight live while I can, there will be a day(not too far from today) that he will no longer be doing that..

    If it was easier then Floyd would be weighing in at 154 wouldn't he?

    No, floyd has always looked better the lower the weight.
