Comments Thread For: Mayweather: This is One of My Best Camps So Far

[Pretty Boy1]

Well he's hardly gonna say it's a bad camp and everythings going wrong even if it was!! When has a fighter ever admitted a camp went bad except as an excuse after the fight has happened!!

What if he injures his hands?

That's a very good question. It's really a shame that Floyd has such brittle hands. I really believe he'd have more knockouts (not a ton more, but more nonetheless) if he didn't have the hand problem. Especially against The Ghost. mayweather said he tried to KO him, but he hurt his hand.. His had was badly swollen after the fight too.

I'll agree for the most part.. but to say that it was Mayweather deciding to stand and trade with Cotto is a push... I've always been a fan of Cotto's footwork and head movement.. He knew how to cut the ring off get on the inside and therefore Mayweather was forced into a barn burner, luckily Cotto gassed.. Canelo has not shown me anywhere near the hand speed, footwork, or head movement Cotto possesses so I think Canelo gasses chasing Mayweather around.. Money in a wide UD.. 8-3-1..

Now to the real show.. Mathysse ko's little danny boy!

You're right about Cotto's great footwork and ability to cut off the ring. I do feel that Mayweather did have a choice whether to box or stand toe to toe with Cotto though. WHen i say that, i don't mean to discredit Cotto's ability by any means, because I think he did force the issue a little more than any other fighter against Mayweather in recent memory. I just think, that if Floyd wanted to, he could've just out boxed him and tip-toed around the ring while picking his shots (rather than taking shots and going toe-to-toe). I also agree that, at this point of their career, Cotto's footwork and ability to cut the ring is much more superior to Canelo's.. Although Canelo has been improving in these attributes as of late.. Especially against Joselito Lopez, whom I felt very sorry for..

Glad to hear that. No excuses when you get your face beat in!

Josesito is no where near Canelo's pedigree.. So I agree on that..

Good to know. It's certainly better than the obvious "this is the best camp I've ever had" statements only to then have that followed up by thousands of excuses of why you lost. Not naming No-nito names or anything. Just saying

Haven't you picked every one of his previous opponents to beat him?

At any rate, Canelo's improved a lot but hasn't improved his stamina much. He'll gas midway through the fight and things will get even worse for him. I'm not a big fan of Floyd's - I appreciate his skill but not his attitude or the way he runs his career much more like a business than wanting to fight the best - but frankly, if he shows up as sharp as he did for Guerrero, Canelo's only chance is a puncher's chance.

No. I picked Guerrero...Boy was that a dud. I was seriously wrong on that one.
I thought Ortiz had a good shot...Never saw a sucker punch win a fight...but hey thats Boxing. Mosley...no didnt stand a chance. JMM coming up 3 divisions to fight a bigger Floyd...No way didnt pick that. DLH...Thought DLH would win. Almost did. SD! Hatton...no. Saw Hatton vs Collzo @ ww. He looked bad and got a gift win. He said he cant fight at ww and then two fights later Floyd wants to fight him....AT WW! :WORD: Knew that was a loss fo Hatton.

So NO. But...Canelo i will pick to win. I dont think his stamina will be an issue. At all! This kid is hungry. And IMO the bigest threat Floyd has faced in over a decade! Im not 100% sold on Canelo due to opposition hes faced. Trout didnt do it for me. But then again, I dont see Floyd as being all that great either.

[Fetta]

This is good news! I know Canelo will be ready to take that crown so im happy to hear Floyd will be ready too.

Im so hyped up for this one! Been invited to 5 fight parties but might just watch this one alone at the house. Still got time though

[Breid22]

Everybody brings up the cotto fight but Floyd was sick going into that fight!! He weighed more for the weigh in then the fight
