    No Alvarewz is bigger, Floyd will have to fight more like he did with Cotto.

    Hell no, I dont expect this fight to look like anything from any past Mayweather fight. But if I had to choose....I hope Canelo does what I know he can do and this fight looks like the first 4 rounds of Mayweather/Judah but over the course of 12 rounds.


    This fight will end via Split Decision.

    What do you mean by "looking like Judah"? If that is the case we already know the outcome.

    It's very possible if Alvarez fights from the outside and pauses. Alvarez needs to be aggressive and active all the way to make this a competitive fight.

    Yes if Alvarez tries outbox Mayweather. If he uses his size advantage and can manage to get on the inside and stay there, he could make it a long night for Mayweather. My biggest question regarding Alvarez is, how he will handle the magnitude of this event. I think Nazim Richardson summed it up best when he said "Mayweather and Pacquiao both beat Mosley, when Alvarez fought him it was to see if he could do something Mayweather and Pacquiao couldn't", meaning could he stop Mosley. He went on to say that fight was to see if Alvarez is special and he really didn't do anything to separate himself from the pack. He said his fight with Mayweather will tell us if Alvarez is "special".

    1. Canelo does not have Judah's speed.
    2. Canelo does have the benefit of having sparred with Floyd like Judah did.

    I think Canelo has a genuine chance in this fight. He is classier than Guerrero, who had nothing to trouble Floyd with. The one similarity I see is RG and Canelo are too easy to hit with the lead right. I think Canelo has the speed, punching power and variety to give Floyd the most trouble of any fighter at the moment. Whether that's enough to win is another matter!

    Guerrero is better coming foreward.
    Canelito likes to backpeddle.

    He is not a pressure fighter by any stretch of the imagination..He couldn't even back up Alphonso Gomez.:lol:

    He's in trouble if he's training to walk Mayweather down.
    How will Canelo respond when he finds out Mayweather is a lot stronger than he thought?

    Every single one of Floyd's opponents say he was a LOT stronger than they realized.Canelo will definately need a plan B and C.

    He will be the strongest fighter Canelo has faced.

    How will be deal with that jab to the Solar Plexus.?
    He can't walk through that.

    Mayweather will fight nothing like he did Guerrero.Canelo is screwed if he studies a single minute of that fight.

    Floyd didn't fight on the inside at all against Guerrero..he just tied up...but watch what he does to Canelo's body..especially in the clinches.:deal

    Soon as Alvarez adjusts to the body jab, the right hands will start raining in.

    Whenever Shane wanted a break he just grabbed Alvarez and walked him backwards.....He couldn't do that to Floyd.

    Trout beat Alvarez on the inside..as a matter of fact...Canelo conceeded the inside very early in the fight.

    He don't like to be in there.
