It official now, Saul Alvarez will be severely hampered by the weight drained stipulation that Mayweather imposed on him.
30 days out and Alvarez is just under 167lbs, a stone to lose and heavier than he was at the same time out in the Trout fight. A fight where he could come in two lbs heavier.
Canelo has over a stone to lose and is already cut up looks to be under 10% body fat.
Now a quit calculation there, show that he got about a stone of fat on him, or less, and he has to lose over a stone.
So he will now have to lose muscle mass and fluids, which can't all sorts of problems in the fight.
Lowering his punch resistance, sapping his power, draining his stamina, making him sluggish.
Floyd could well get a KO here.
"The pound of flesh which I demand of him Is deerely bought, 'tis mine, and I will haue it."
Shylock only wanted a pound of flesh, Floyd wants two.
It's Official Canelo will be Weight Drained

So you thought after the berto fight he was the 7th best fighter in the world! Ahead of both rios (lightweight) and Bradley (lww)

Alverez fought at 147 and lower for his first 33
fights so you could say he is a career WW cotto
fought his 27 fights at lww before moving up and
he ended up as lmw! I see a pattern with him and
alverez with weight
------------------
Alvarez has not been a world champion at welterweight or beat anyone of note, he was also a teenager at that weight with a lot of growing to do, unlike Cotto.

Bradley would be ranked higher than Guererro at welter and Rios would rank higher than him at light welter.
Beating Berto, especially without the drugs is no great shakes.

But you ranked him the 7th best fighter in the world Bradley's WW resume is prob worse than Guerreros if you take out manny as he never really won

Guererro is a multi weight champ.
Rigondeux is ranked higher than Mikey Garcia p4p, but if Rigo moved up to super feather, Garcia would rank higher than him at the weight.

All Mayweathers beaten opponents were garbage when he faced them....
They improved for Manny though..

Mosley went from a old shot fighter to a young hungry lion when he faced Manny according to D4.

You didn't seem concerned with him or trout at the 30day weigh in
