Welcome to this live blog of Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Saul "Canelo" Alvarez. This is for all those who are not willing to pay way too much money for a boxing match, but recognize the magnitude of this bout. We will bring you the Lederman scorecard with updates and commentary on the action that transpires at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Canelo and Mayweather hold perfect records. For Canelo, it's the biggest moment of his career. This fight is more than a main event battle against a legend. It could make or break Canelo's career and either propel him further into the limelight or make him a regular Joe to have crossed paths with boxing's best pound for pound fighter.

The Tale of the Tape shows that Canelo is about half an inch shorter, but also 13 years younger than Mayweather. At 42-0-1, Mexico's redhead comes to the ring with a lot of experience. His career has taken off suddenly, entering the American boxing world in 2010 after his first 30 bouts took place in Mexico. Canelo will be on the biggest stage of his career.

Mayweather is all about big stages. His personality prompts the boxer to steal headlines even when he's not boxing. After seeing Canelo highlight undercard bouts for his main events, Mayweather figures the 23-year-old was game. All Mayweather sees is the 45th victory in his career.

Mayweather's skills are unmatchable. It's hard to comprehend how a fighter can defend so well, while also having tremendous offensive skills. Mayweather's shoulder rolls protect his face and his left hand is so fast he can leave it low at his waist. When opponents try to land a punch, Mayweather's counters scare them away. Boxers close up, but Mayweather goes to work, finding tiny spots only he can hit with his incredible accuracy.

Canelo packs a punch and Mayweather will have to be extremely careful. 30 of Canelo's 42 victories have come by way of the knockout. The stats are there. However, Mayweather has not only never tasted defeat, but he's never laid on the canvas in his 17-year career.
