Not even remotely possible. Easiest 30 million Mayweather will ever make.

I am still worried about it though

Mayweather has to slow down sometime. It just won't happen in this fight. That kid may be young and have power but he hasn't even come close to beating someone half of Mayweather's caliber. Still green around the gills.

But I give Mayweather credit for taking this fight against a young, hungry, and bigger challenger with legit KO power.

Floyd will beat the piss out of him.

Floyd won't get close enough to get hit.

That's the biggest misconception about Canelo. He does not have one punch KO power. He's a volume puncher that wears down his opponents.

He is just to slow for a guy that's runs and throws punches in bunches. The fight will go the distance with Mayweather winning every round. Canelo will beg for Mayweather to fight during the fight. Canelo will be frustrated at the end and the crowd will boo Mayweather's win. How's that for a prediction?

I hate Mayweather's boxing style. At least when Sugar Ray used a similar style he had a punch. Remember Sugar Ray Leonard fight with Hagler? If he truly fought that fight to win Sugar would have gotten knocked out. He just fought to out point him. Same with this fight.

fmw runs now about as much as a talks shit. He's slowed down in both categories. he won't trade but will take him apart. canelo will body punch like a young cotto, so fmw will need to stay active. in order for him to win 9-10 rounds as people are predicting he will have to fight this guy. canelo has 43 fights, is as old as the other greats when they ushered out champs of their eras. this is the fight everyone wanted. now, they are coming up with the green excuse. if fmw was 22-23, the press and boxing fan base would be screaming he is fighting an over-the-hill champ. the best one i've heard is, fmw should fight canelo in 2 years. why the fuck would he sit 2 yrs til 38 to let a stronger and younger opponent get even better? now, that's a dumb boxing move.

Canelo will give Floyd the toughest fight he's ever had in his career.

Very true. He's the only one with a legit shot of upsetting Floyd. (Well Broner too ....but they will never fight)

I rate Broner highly. He should cakewalk Mallinaggi.....if he doesn't easily beat Pauli-the-commentator ... then he will be exposed as a pretender.

Canelo better bring some top notch stamina or else he's getting outboxed easily.

Beating Paulie is not some great feat, chinny Khan tooled him. He has the talent, I have to see him in there with someone like Matthysse after he destroys Danny Garcia.

Yup, I'd like to see Broner fight the winner of Mattthysse/Garcia. Golden looks to be pushing a Broner vs Maidana fight though.
