    Its damn annoying.
    Thats my problem. Honestly, if I was Alvarez I would not concede anything. I understand hes young and its been said 'whats he have to lose' but that dog dont hunt. I think the 152 is pulling the wool over peoples eyes or more the 'contract' of it. How do you have a limit within a limit but still call it a legitimate division title? Just hand shake on it, whatever?! Floyd literally just fought a guy who didn't jump one...but two...divisions and did Guerrero it without winks, nods, and bs number games. He bolted into a grab to reclaim his "p4p" status fighting a Marquez who was a lightweight then and agreed on a 'catchweight'...only to blow it off and no one will ever convince me he wasn't near 150 that night. You want to beat the champ, claim legacy and greatness just cut the games and Alvarez makes his legit limit..you make what you will within limit..and go at it. Do we really..I mean really know who needs who more here Canelo is afterall the one with massive future, in a stacked division and middle where Floyd is 36. Hes the man now but I think he needs Canelo in a big way for the bigger picture. It'll be a good fight, WE win as fans, but there is zero need or desire to tinker in this catchweight bean counter bs we see much much more of. Its just goofy dude.

    Canelo has about 2 rounds in which to win this fight, otherwise it will go as it always has in the past, Floyd will work him out and win an easy decision. Canelo must throw all caution to the wind and come out smokin', he has to assert himself early and score a big shot very early. PBF is a master at simply working his opponent out, adjusting his fight plan to suit and then cruising to victory. The only thing that can prevent this happening is for Canelo to strike hard in the 1st or 2nd rounds. He will have no time to settle in, Floyd will toy with him if this goes beyond 4 rounds.

    i think that 2 lb could make a difference. in the trout fight canelo slowed down midfight and trying to lose that extra weight could tell on his stamina. if i were him i would just make 154 and pay the fine.
