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
 
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
 
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...
 
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.
 
Floyd needs to lose but he'll scrape on by, much to my chagrin.
 
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.
 
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.
 
"The One" huh. Okay. Let's go with Money winning by Agent Smith style defensive work and movement along with Neo style counter punching.

The Matrix?! God I am old
 
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.
 
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).
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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.

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.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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!!
