Fight Preview: Floyd 'Money' Mayweather VS Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez

The wait is over, 'The One,' Floyd 'Money' Mayweather steps into the ring with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez for the undisputed Super Welterweight Championship this Saturday in Las Vegas at The MGM Grand. Boxing fans having been super excited and intrigued with this matchup, as they believe Canelo is Mayweather's toughest foe yet.  It'll be the classic tale of the young rising superstar attempting to take the current legend's throne.
Floyd will need to control the pace and not let Canelo get off, Mayweather's jab will be crucial for him to dictate the flow of this match.  His ring generalship will also be important to stacking up rounds and possibly picking up a decision.  Mayweather cannot look to slug it out with Canelo as he did against Miguel Cotto, instead a true boxing performance is expected from Mayweather like the one he dished out on Robert Guerrero.  He must also stay off the ropes, as Canelo's power could help Canelo turn the tide to the fight.
Alvarez's weight at the weigh-in proved not to be an issue as he achieved the catch weight of 152 pounds, and now the question is how many more pounds will Canelo gain during the rehydration process.  Canelo must maintain a comfortable weight, one that will allow him to keep mobile to even attempt to try to keep up with Floyd's elusiveness.  Combination punching will be vital for Canelo to try to get an edge over Floyd, especially when he closes the gap.  Hard body punching must be utilized in the inside for Alvarez to try and home Floyd's excellent defense.  Canelo cannot afford to give up rounds early, he must try to dictate the pace by being the more aggressive fighter.  Canelo's power could prove to be the key to Alvarez's success during this fight, but will he be able to land big effective shots to control Floyd's stamina in the ring remains to be seen.
Interesting matchup indeed between Floyd and Saul, this fight can prove to be a huge success if the fight lives up to it's expectations.  Pay-Per-View record numbers are expected to be set, and to think that people still believe boxing is dead, they can't deny an intriguing matchup, and these same folks who make these claims will be the same ones who will help shatter the records for viewership come Saturday.  It's matchups like these can once and for all stop the false claims that boxing is dead.  Enjoy the fight everybody.
