Floyd "Money" Mayweather vs. Saul "Canelo" Alvarez - September 14, 2013

[CZAR]

He won't be. The fight is at 152 and there is a 10% maximum rehydration allowed by the WBC. I think Canelo will be around 165 which I believe is what Ortiz was around.

Hmmm guess well see. I didnt think Ortiz blew up that much but ok. Got Em!!

@CZAR Why would you say yeah right for? None of us know what Floyd's fight night weight is and even Pacmans weight goes up 5-10lbs, so what's the big deal?

Because no way has Floyd ever weighed 165+ on fight night. No way. Got Em!!

Yep, its true. Ortiz had 15 pounds on Floyd:


Ortiz (29-3-2, 22 KOs), who made $2.5 million, had been marketed as a naturally bigger, stronger, dangerous puncher -- his handlers claimed he'd knocked down every one of his professional opponents -- and many felt he had the relentless forward-moving style to trouble if not upset Mayweather. Indeed, Ortiz had rehydrated to 164 pounds by Saturday night, while Mayweather weighed 150 (when he finally agreed to step on HBO's unofficial scale after initially declining).

Dude Floyd never even makes it up to 154. He is always lighter than that when he fights at that weight. He does not ballon up much at all if any. Got Em!!

This right here proves my point. He only went up 3 pounds on fight night against Ortiz. Mayweather's weigh in weight is about where he fights at. He may gain 3-5 pounds at the most. Canelo will have 15-20 pounds on Mayweather on fight night trust me. Got Em!!

 

[battle619]

At 147 he gained about 5. what about when he weighs 154? He weighed in at 146, then went up tp 150 for the fight against Ortiz.

Thats what I am saying. He has never weighed in at 154. He weighed in at 151 when he fought Cotto at 154. He cant even get up to 154 for the weigh in because he's not a super welterweight lol. Also u are right and I agreed he'll blow up 3-5 pounds on fight not which isnt shit compared to Canelo ballooning up 20 pounds on fight night. Big difference. Got Em!!

 

[2-0-Sixx]

Yeah it's safe to say Floyd fights right around his weight class. Not many guys do it. Floyd, Pacquiao, Rigondeaux are a few that come to mind.

After Floyd beats Canelo who do you think he should fight next? I say if Pac wins he fights Pac. Hopefully Pac doesn't die in the ring but I think if both win their fights it's time those two get it on.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

I think Pacquiao would still be a better option than the 140 pound guys. Matthysse, Garcia, Khan, Alexander, all good fighters but all B and B+ fighters.

Thought Id fix it for you. It was obviously a mistake typing so fast. Dont worry, I got you.

Nah, I meant it exactly how I typed it. Floyd is gonna beat Canelo.

 

[battle619]

From what i heard is that there is a rematch clause from both camps, and this will happen again. Word on the streets is that this shit is not fixed, but borderline fixed if that makes any sense. showtime lost money last fight so mayweather has to make their money back hence a rematch clause. There are really no losers in this fight no matter what. mayweather's popularity has fallen and his opponents don't give much of a ppv draw. i'm actually losing interest in this fight.

^^^ That might have to be the dumbest thing ive read in a while lol

I agree. Pac would still do gigantic numbers compared to the 140lb fighters....
