Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
This is where Floyd gets a shot at cementing his legacy.
This is Julio Cesar Chavez vs The Golden Boy.
This is Sweat Pea vs Tito.
This is B-Hop vs The Ghost.
Fuck this is Muhammad Ali vs Mike Tyson!
I love these old vs young match ups, especially when the old man wins but I can't honestly remember when it happened on such a huge scale?
-
Floyd should have made it 150.
-
Garcia v Matthysse on the undercard too apparently

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
I know this is going to seem like a flloyd hating post but I did post about a year ag that I dont think Canelo has done ANYTHING of note to be considered even ring worthy of flloyd - however he has now beaten trout so I give him some respect even if I think trout nicked it
But even so this will be a walkover for mayweather - it's not sweet pea vs tito! Alvarez is nowhere NEAR trinidad!
if the odds are even close I will be stumping alot of money on mayweather to win
however.... I would be willing to lose almost everything I own to see flloyd lose so I hope im wrong!!!

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Catch weight...... awwwee damn it! If I was Canelo I'd come in at a rock solid 154 if Floyd didn't care about making weight vs JMM then Canelo shouldn't care about it vs Floyd. Besides Canelo is the 154 champ not the 152 champ!

Doesnt Alvarez come in at 170lb on fight night? Its only fair and a small sacrifice to get the biggest fight out their for him. If he cant make 152 and be effective, maybe he shouldnt be allowed to fight in that weight. Too many fighters are allowed to cut down and come right back up in weight. Really, Canelo should be fighting at middle or even super middle. Hed be fucked in those weight classes which tells you how good he is.
The fight could be at 148lb and it could still be for the light middle title.
-
Alvarez has at best a punchers chance I don't see him posing any threat to Floyd at all.
Mayweather will school him easily.
Very easily infact.

You can tell his team thought "OK. Who is baddest young cat out there in or around my weight division ?"
And it probably was Canelo.
He could have easily chose a Devon Alexander or Tim Bradley who are no mugs but Mayweather would have UD'ed them for sure
But Canelo ? Wow.
No one can say S**T about Mayweather ducking anybody.

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
I will say shit about it. At 152? What a typical Mayweather joke. Canelo will be shot before he starts.

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Im so excited for this fight. Don't get why people are upset at the 152, lets not forget mayweather did fight at 154, but fought guys that use to fight at 140, 147 and even they were naturally bigger than maywaether. Canelo on the other hand couldn't make 147 if his life depended on it. He's huge compared to mayweather, he could easily fight at 160. And both times at 154 mayweather didn't look all that great, its not fair for a star to give away all the advantages.

I am an Alvarez fan but if a 22 yr old young man is that affected by 2 pounds against a 36 yr old who is naturally 5 pounds lighter then maybe he should make the 4 pound jump to middleweight himself. It is stupid to not be 154 but the idea that Saul will be shot at the weight is ridiculous. I don't think Mayweather was ever as worried about meeting him as has been made out and will relish the opportunity to enhance his legacy. I can't knock him on this one and though Alvarez does have a punchers chance he will struggle against such a slick craftsmen. It's a great fight. Now is the time to do it before age slows Floyd's legs.

I agree with Gandalf. Alvarez struggles to make 154 and stamina is poor due to this. Losing another 2 pounds will have a big effect and will really struggle late on in this fight.

If it was at 154 he would struggle late on. He needs to go to work early because there is not a scenario in any script where he wins on points. He is more than capable of stopping Floyd even after coming in at 152 the day before. His trouble will be landing the kind of shot needed.

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Glad they made the fight, and credit to both not just Floyd. But 152 is bs. You want legacy, fighting for greatness, just cut the parlor tricks and move up already. He's done it before. Suppose he whips Howdy Doody...then what, Martinez at 153 1/4 lbs. I def don't think it'll be for 4 belts. The wbc strap will be stashed back in Papa Jose trunk quicker than the judges next of kin by fight night.

What makes you think he is "more then capable of stopping" Mayweather? He has a solid chin and is very hard to hit.

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
I'm not sure Sulaiman is going to turn down the sanctioning fee for a fight this size. Anybody know if/what the penalty per pound is if the ginger comes in over 152?
I think we're going to see another Floyd masterclass here.
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
What do we all reckon this will do in PPV sales? I'd put the over/under at about 1.6 million.

I agree it will be another Floyd masterclass which will probably be blown out of proportion because of the hype that surrounds Canelo
If canelo doesnt make weight the fine should be whatever floyd was penalised for not bothering vs marquez. The Cw ruins this fight for me cuz it gives canelo an excuse. If your going to fight a champion beat them at their weight. Dont fight oscar and cotto at 154 cuz they are washed up but then demand a CW against a guy more dangerous

Canelo and his people will throw dollars at it and pull a Mayweather, shoes on the other foot. Kind of why I can't see the belt(s) really being at risk on scale and some serious politicking from wbc and others. I do think they'll strip Canelo though.

Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Remember all the hoopla about Mayweather not believing in catch-weights? How about I want the best Saul Alvarez?
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
This is the best fight for Mayweather out there other than Sergio Martinez. He should have faced Canelo at 154 so that no one could say a damn thing about it. The reason why this fight has the potential to be close is because of Canelo's size and punching power. Also, Canelo handled a faster boxer, foot-and-hand-speed, in Trout. So, the speed won't bother him.
Is this Mayweather's toughest challenge since who? De La Hoya? Corrales? I'm talking on paper.
Still I favor Mayweather big if the fight. How have the odds opened up for this one?
-
Canelo better be in great shape! If he wants to hit Floyd he will have to out maneuver him, so far that's a real problem for anyone who fights Floyd.
I think Canelo is doing the right thing by fighting for every advantage he can get, Floyd sure as hell is. Negotiating is a saw cuts both ways.
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
This is big risk fight for Mayweather, even if Canelo is a little drained he doesn't have to crack the floyd code to do some real damage, he keeps pounding that body and Money is gonna feel it, blocked shots or not.

You do all realise that the light middle class is ANY WEIGHT between 147 and 154? As long as they dont weigh over 154 it will be for the titles...
They could both weigh in at 148lb and it still be for the title:rolleyes:
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Props to Floyd for taking this fight and finally fighting more than once a year. You guys give catchweights too much negative feedback. Floyd is not a light middleweight and will never be one. Canelo is not a welterweight so a catchweight makes sense to make this fight. 152 is only two pounds below the limit. I'm actually surprise Floyd agreed to 152. I would of thought it at 150, but Floyd will def be giving up a lot of weight to a much younger fighter.
Floyd by easy UD. ;D

Not if its a contracted 152 limit eh :x . I don't think Canelo will make weight, the wbc will be stripped shortly regardless.

I was thinking the same but he missed a blueprint-batting practice a bit with a poor poor mans Mayweather in Trout. He turned boxer late on and was being touted for his defense??? I don't see him having that luxury with Mayweather

They could contract at any weight in the limit, if its in the limit the title is still on the line. You dont have to weigh in at 154 on the dot for it to be a valid light middle title fight.

I understand that completely, but if its a "catchweight" capped at 152...likewise Canelo cannot exceed 152...correct?

No one is putting a gun to Alvarez head and forcing him to defend against Mayweather its his choice. He is a light middle so should be able to fight from 148 up. Otherwise he's a middle and needs to move up.

If he's a light middleweight, he just needs to make 154. He doesn't need to be able to make 148. Who in their right mind turns down a fight with Mayweather for two pounds? Who in their right mind turns down Pacquiao for two pounds (Cotto)? What's the harm in losing to him? Canelo could still go to dominate the light middleweight division, and have a stellar career. Cotto lost to Pacquiao and eventually got a Floyd Mayweather fight. It's a win-win for Canelo.
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Glad to hear it. Canelo/Cotto would have been an absolute joke fight and Floyd really doesn't have anyone interesting to fight at his weight.
If Canelo can pull off a victory, it would be a HUGE "passing of the torch" moment in boxing IMO.

Wonder how much say the network had in Floyd taking the fight? You'd have to think that Showtime couldn't go on making a loss (if they actually were) due to Floyd taking lower profile fights like Guerrero. Imagine the PPV for Floyd vs Alexander next, or Bradley. Ha....
-
Re: Holy F*ck! Floyd Mayweather vs. Canelo Alvarez is signed and sealed for Sept 14th
Weight-wise, I don't see what the big deal is with Canelo weighing in at 152. Unless there is a viable source that directly confirms that he is tight at the weight, I'd say he seems quite fine.
For example, appearance wise, him and Mosley were the same size (Mosley and Mayweather were also the same size!) and Trout was far from dwarfed by Canelo, in fact I'd say Trout was bigger.

I agree it should have been at 154 although Alvarez was 153.5 for his last fight. It's not going to kill him to make 152.

If he does there'll still be two of the 26 WBA 154 belts to fight for.
