[Jest Chillin]

We in here! Backing Canelo and Matthysse for this event. Yes, I'm ok with going 1 for 2.

 

[perroloco]

im also cheering up for canelo myself, but i dont know, guess i must have faith.

 

[Protein]

Canelo here. Isn't he the underdog?

 

[KingGondo]

Not a huge boxing fan, but I'll probably order this.

 

[Lambda Pie]

Pretty Boy by not getting hit, hitting more.

 

[roodiculous]

This may be the first boxing purchase on PPV. If so it better be good!

 

[polyh3dron]

Father Time is gonna win this one.

Bye bye Floyd.

And Mathysse is P4P most underrated boxer out there right now.

 

[Dysun]

The new happy creep Rogan stare by Oscar

 

[MANGOD]

Love money may and cant see him losing. However I do think Canelo is the only person on the planet that could beat him so its gonna be an interesting fight

 

[abuC]

Masterclass will be in session, Canelo will be gassed like usual by around the 7th round.

 

[Archpath1]

Canelo/Mathysse for me here

if Canelo plays his cards right pretty sure he can do it, he's gonna need a KO for sure though

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

Team Money checking in... This is going to be quite the interesting fight. I was talking about this fight with a few friends from my kickboxing/boxing gym, and they all agreed that Canelo can give Floyd some REAL problems.

I'm still taking Money in this one...

 

[RukusProvider]

Unless Floyd ages overnight (which can happen) I don't see how Canelo can win this.

He does have a punchers chance but it's not like Floyd has a bad chin.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Floyd needs to lose but he'll scrape on by, much to my chagrin.

 

[dream]

The One what? The One guy people will actually pay to watch in boxing?

 

[AlexBasch]

I dislike Money, but hate Canelo.

Would be fun to see him getting suckerpunched like "Vicious" Ortiz, lololol.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

The One what? The One guy people will actually pay to watch in boxing?

We don't really have that anymore ;(

I miss boxing, sad it's fallen so hard, but...well, that's evolution.

 

[BobLoblaw]

Disgunbgud. Can't wait for this fight. If money wins this, I think he'll cruise through his last few fights. Depending on how ugly this one turns out, I'm not sure if there'll be a rematch, but maybe.

 

[TheKaeptain]

I'm usually team Money but




Viva Mexico Bitch!

 

[x Power Pad Death Stomp x]

Floyd UD 12. Canelo is going to gas in the middle rounds. If Floyd didn't have hands of glass, he would stop him late.

Oh, and Matthysse by death within 3 rounds.

 

[Baby Milo]

Father Time is gonna win this one.

Bye bye Floyd.
.

how many times have you been wrong now? maybe one day

Floyd by wide UD. Canelo gassed by round 5

 

[Acorn]

Team money, Floyd all the way.

 

[Heel]

Floyd Godweather via unanimous decision. Manny lost.

 

[Indrid Cold1]

"The One" huh. Okay. Let's go with Money winning by Agent Smith style defensive work and movement along with Neo style counter punching.

Spoiler

The Matrix?! God I am old

 

[Systemwarrior]

I'll be in Vegas this weekend and this is going to be fun! #teammoney

 

[Rastafarian42]

Mayweather UD he's going take Canelo to school.

 

[Batman]

Alvarez is a walking skeleton right now and still had 5 pounds to lose as of last friday, I doubt he makes 152 and he will pay millions in penalties to Mayweather. He will be completely drained for the fight and there's a good chance that Mayweather knocks him out.

 

[harSon]

Don't believe the hype. We all know Money's winning the fight, unless as someone already mentioned, he ages overnight. As always though, there's the chance of a knockout, but that element is present in every fight (Unless you're on the recieving end of Malignaggi's punches).

 

[Gareth Bale]

From what I read (I only watched the highlights) Saul had a few problems hitting Austin Trout, and that fight was apparently much closer than it was scored. So yeah, I can't see him winning this.

 

[rohnjambo]

money may. all there is to say.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

if Floyd is Floyd then he boxes his way to a 12 round UD. If Floyd has lost a step Manny style then Canelo has a punchers chance.

 

[muddream]

Picking Canelo based on neck girth.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Canelo is in a pretty good situation right now. If he wins "HE FUCKING BEAT THE BEST!" if he loses "HE'S YOUNG AND INEXPERIENCED AT THAT LEVEL!" So no matter what I already have my excuse ready.

 

[Wynnebeck]

This fight reminds me of Hajime no Ippo. You got the young upstart in Canelo (Ippo) coming up against the aged veteran in Mayweather (Date) for the belt. Canelo will give Mayweather a fight, but Money isn't the champ for nothing. Mayweather by UD.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Damn it I wish I didn't have to work Saturday night and that my work weren't cheapskates. I'd have actually ordered this with Matthysse on the undercard. He's one of the few boxers I'll watch nowadays, same with Canelo.

 

[JLG-]

Floyd by UD unless he's lost a step.

Undercard is gonna be awesome though. RIP Danny Garcia.

 

[Amagon]

Canelo will give Mayweather a run for his money. Canelo needs to control the first 5 rounds if he wants a chance of getting one over. Also, RIP in piece Garcia.

 

[Spira]

Canelo needs to punch that smirk of off his face.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

The undercard fight might be better than the main one. If only there were a way for Mathyse to kick Garcia's dad's ass.

 

[Ryck]

From what I read (I only watched the highlights) Saul had a few problems hitting Austin Trout, and that fight was apparently much closer than it was scored. So yeah, I can't see him winning this.

Yes, yes and yes :/


I'd love to see Canelo win but I can't see it unless he somehow catches him. Has to be in the first four or five rounds though.


Mayweather by gas out.

 

[polyh3dron]

how many times have you been wrong now? maybe one day

Floyd by wide UD. Canelo gassed by round 5

Floyd is gonna gas before Canelo does with that extra weight on him.

 

[Batigol]

Whatever happened to him fight Manny?

No one cares about these bums he's fighting. Same goes for Manny

Just fight each other

 

[Prompto]

I'm predicting Mayweather wins by unanimous decision. Though It'd be more exciting if Canelo won.

 

[YaGaMi]

#TheMoneyTeam got this one. I expect a UD win for Floyd.

 

[Can Crusher]

Floyd is too smooth for Can...elo.

 

[Jest Chillin]

Whatever happened to him fight Manny?

No one cares about these bums he's fighting. Same goes for Manny

Just fight each other

Money Mayweather, Uncle Mayweather, Arum, Pacquiao... pick one or multiple and blame them. That fight's going to be this generations Jones Jr v Hopkins.

In the meantime though, neither of them have been fighting bums. Every fight they've had have been established fighters or talented up and comers.

 

[CountAntonius]

Hoping for a Canelo win but he get's too aggressive and get's hit too much, which plays into Mayweather's style. He needs to not let Mayweather get into his head.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Whatever happened to him fight Manny?

No one cares about these bums he's fighting. Same goes for Manny

Just fight each other

He's going to get way more money and buys for this PPV than he would for a Manny PPV. Floyd doesn't need Manny's bum ass.

 

[SUPREME1]

Gonna be a nice sized gathering at my house for the fight. Burgers, sausages, and craft brew. Re-watched a bunch of Mayweather and Canelo fights over the last two weeks. I think people are gonna be in for a treat with Garcia/Matthysee.

GET HYPE!!
