and he will look enormous compared to Floyd. Kid is 23 and 5 foot 10 inches tall. He makes 152 then eats his ass off, rehydrates his ass off, definitely gains 8 or now that I think about it he weighed 173 when he fought Trout --- he will gain 18 pounds between weigh-in and fighttime.

Floyd still wins ;)

Only 160? I would think he'd be bigger than that. Get down to 152 then balloon up to 170, that wouldn't shock me.
Oh yeah at least 170. These guys cut serious weight. Empty stomach + fluid drain, he'll be big on fight night for sure.
Can anyone tell me Canelo 30 day weigh in weight? And if possible, can anyone get Canelo 30 day and 7 day weigh in weights for the Trout fight?
I believe I read Canelo was 164 30 days ago... and 157 7 days ago...he said he was right on target.
4 or 5 lbs is nothing for a guy like Canelo to sweat out before the weigh in, No problem.
Oscar posted on Twitter 2 days ago:
Floyd - 152.2
Alvarez - 157.4
I'm expecting Alvarez to look massive on fight night.
If a fighter can get away with it then why shouldn't he. It is a calculated risk because he will be vulnerable to the body shots and tire out in the later rounds for the weight advantage.
Canelo is only a hair taller than Floyd. I believe half an inch. I wonder how losing two extra pounds will affect Canelo's jump in weight after the weigh in. I'm looking to see if Canelo looks weight-drained at the weigh in.
Who gives a shit how big canelo is , floyd has taken on the bigshow!!! I can't wait for Mayweather to take canelo to school.
@El Kabong I meant to say 170 in the title. Yeah he will be like 168 I think. @Master may be vulnerable but I dont see Floyd hurting him to the body. If Floyd goes to the body his hands will be down and Canelo has that awesome hook and Floyd doesnt want to trade left hooks with Canelo. Hope we can all agree on that. As Big George liked to say "Never left hook with a left hooker" :)
Canelo is prepared to take a punch to get a punch in.
Floyd is not prepared to take any punishment.
Thats why floyd wins all the time.
Canelo is a winner after this anyway as he can fight cotto and other welterweights with big paydays.
Ortiz, Cotto and De La Hoya also ballooned up in weight after the weigh in to above 160 pounds when they fought Floyd.
Mayweather has handled two junior middleweights in the past. Nothing makes me think that Canelo will be any different. If he was a young, active fighter, maybe, but he's not, he actually takes much rounds off. Do you think Canelo beats Floyd?Quote:

With brittle hands that Floyd has body punching is better than punching to the head. Floyd fought Baldimor who was huge at the weight so he will probably decide that boxing and safety first is his best option and try and win it on points. Then he can claim he tried for the knock out but injured his hand.Quote:

Which is a pure boxer with little punching power so he should not talk BS and say he goes for the knockout.Quote:

Canelo and JCC Jr. are making a mockery out of weigh-ins. A f*cking joke.
