How much is the penalty though? Leonard Ellerbe said "it's a lot.....a lot".
Speculation is that it's $1m per-pound. Admittedly Alvarez will be making a lot of money from this fight but that $1m+ would be a lot of money to forfeit.

Ture 1m is a lot but say he gives up 1m and comes in 153, think if he beats Mayweather how much more he will earn in future, if taking the 1m hit means he has a better chance of winning and not being weight drained i'd say its worth the money, either way he will get like 15m.

Hi guys,

I don't have sky and realise this is not available on telly any other way. If anyone would be able to send me a PM with any info on how to watch this card, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Wow Floyd weighs in at 150.5 lbs .
Thought he would have came in much lighter than that .

TT09

Canelo bang on 152lbs

Canelo looking very very lean, hopefully he didn't push himself too much.

Yeah, been looking forward to this for a while now, the Garcia-Matthysee fight in particular.

Talib Fiasco

Loved Canelo not even needing the translation for the 'are you ready' question....I really think he can do it

Boooourns

Canelo completely son'd Floyd by rejecting holding the belt...aww if Canelo wins it's be the best thing for boxing in ages.

Im not normally one for sticking up for Floyd but in this case he wasnt taking the p!ss. Apparently to mark 50 years of the WBC a replica belt made of gold has been produced for this fight which the winner gets to keep. This was the belt Floyd was holding and not one of his own but obviously Canelo didnt pick up on it.

Hey who cares about the WBC surprised this isn't for the super super world championship version of their belts.
Canelo's got tunnel vision and is in fight mode. I really hope this isn't another another 12 round schooling with all this hype

Bowlardo

what channels it this on? Can you get it on sky or UPC?

deisedevil

Can Boxnation be viewed through Sky in Ireland? Can you view Boxnation online in Ireland? Their site says you can do both but I'm seeing many people complaining that they have problems doing so. I don't want to pay the money and wait up tonight only to be disappointed at not being able to see what should be a great fight. Anyone know for sure where to watch this?

Have Mayweather by points/decision and Matthysse winning too.

PM with this info would be appreciated here too please.

I think Canelo is tailor made for Mayweather and he's likely going to eat right hands all night. The only advantage he may have is size, but Mayweather is so elusive that Canelo will do well to land anything substantial.

I also don't think Canelo has the stamina required to pressure Floyd all through the fight. Floyd by comfortable decision.

Undercard should be a barn duster. I'm picking Matthysse to win by KO. Garcia is no slouch, but can he avoid Matthysse's power for 12 rounds? At the very least, trying to avoid Matthysse's power is going to throw Garcia off his game plan, similar to what happened to Peterson.

That was brilliant! I was born ready.

Does anyone know what time the Garcia Matthyse fight is scheduled to start Irish time ?

What time are Canelo and Mayweather expected in the ring, probably a good idea to edit the 1st post too, as im sure a lot of people are going to ask.

Putting my cards on the table here and it appears its not popular opinion.

Canelo will win this fight. People saying he is made for Mayweather are deluded. He is quick, super strong, a good counterpuncher on the front foot and most importantly- mentally strong.

Mayweather is as solid as they come all round. Super fast, quick thinking and he will have judges on his side. The important factor being overlooked though is his age, he is 36 and is having a fight six months apart for the first time in years with his comeback fight after a stint in prison.

People gave Gurerro too much credit. He was useless and an easy warm up. It's the training that will cause Floyd the problem and I believe (as they say in horse racing) he will bounce. I look back to the Cotto fight were Floyd was caused Hugh problems by a fighter past his best (but at a good level). Signs of Floyds age were there and were not exposed in the Gurerro fight.

Canelo will expose them and I think he will wear him down, not by pressure but by being effective.

All will be seen soon but that is we're I stand. middle round knockout or points win for Canelo.

I also like the underrated Garcia for the undercard. Strong chin and punching power are evident in both corners but Garcia is a good boxer and has an underrated trainer and I think his ability to make mateesye miss will win him the fight
