until he fights Pac-man does anyone really care how he does against these other guys?
lol, this fight tomorrow against Canelo is actually bigger...maybe not hype wise, but as a pure fight.Both undefeated, Mayweather's smallest odds to win since 2009; Vegas only has him 1/2.5.My money's on Money, other fighters think so too, but I mean statistically it's going to be his best fight in years. Actually like high realistic odds he loses.To put it in perspective, Pacqiuao was actually a higher favorite to Vegas to beat Marquez than Mayweather is tomorrow.

Expected outcome. Floyd was his usual self. It reminded me of both De La Hoya-Mayweather and Pacquiao-Margarito, simultaneously. The first one was similar in the sense that it had a lot of hype, had a black guy against a Mexican guy, and ended with Mayweather being in disbelief at it not being a UD, though in both cases it didn't feel like it was worth the money for the PPV. The second one was similar in the sense that there were catchweights involved at super welterweight/junior middleweight and pretty big discrepancies between the two fighters' fight night weights (Pacquiao-Margarito was 148 vs. 165, Mayweather-Alvarez was 150 vs. 165), yet the smaller guy was just far more dominant with speed and a little bit of showboating, but in a funny way (Pacquiao was shuffling his feet back and forth at some point, Mayweather stared at the rope when Canelo swung, missed and hit the rope really hard).I suppose Mayweather-Garcia at 147 is next?
