    I never saw a floyd shutout at all.

    I was watching a very competitive fight,

    And though Floyd won a close but clear decision.

    I felt like i was seeing it wrong, listening to the commentators and the Twitter feed, where everyone seemed to think it was 12-0 or 11-1.

    So i was happy at least the judges scored it more in line with what i was thinking.

    I thought floyd was brilliant tonight, and also canelo was as competetive as i've seen anyone against floyd.

    Yeah, the press scoring was atrocious. No way was it that one sided.

    Yeah hitting the gloves and arms by canelo doesnt make it competitive.

    listen i know you a fresh alt ready to roll and 95% likely a troll

    for the record i gave canelo 1 round (that was the 12th which floyd pretty much took off)

    i have to ask you honestly how you came to your conclusion it was competitive, you realise getting hit on the arm or shoulder does not count as a scoring blow correct ?

    11-1 please man he didn't connect clean punches, most of his body attack landed on floyds gloves, the judging was atrocious

    oscar cashed out on canelo he isn't gonna make 154 much longer and got alot of money with this, canelo can't handle the middleweights no less the supermiddleweights

    it was a clinic. we have to judge the fight on the storyline provided by both fighters before the bell rang. who did what they said they would do?? landing a few shots and missing a ton of them is not winning a fight. getting hit a bit and not being hurt by what few landed does not equate to a loss..:deal

    I had a draw. But I knew most people wouldn't, because most people overlook body work.

    First off, neither fighter landed more than ten clean blows on the other all night. Canelo made Floyd miss like I've never seen anybody do before. He came in with a solid game plan of keeping Floyd out of range and forcing him to initiate at times. Canelo had a nice body attack, hitting Floyd squarely in the heart multiple times per round. Its the one open spot in the shoulder roll defense.

    Canelo took away Floyd's jab to the body and his leaping straight right through long stretches of the fight. He also refused to let Floyd bait him into a check hook. That's about 75% of Floyd's offense. Except through dominant stretches of three rounds or so, Floyd's offense consisted almost entirely of jabs. Canelos chest and body shots trumped that in several rounds.

    Floyd had, by far, the most eye-catching moments of the fight, particularly in the second half. But I completely understand how CJ Ross scored it a draw.

    Proceed the flaming. :)

    demigawd, yeah and lets not forget this was a drained version of Canelo. Canelo still undefeated and FMJ still the P4P Catchweight King. :lol:

    It wasn't a shutout because Floyd took some rounds off, but he was a very clear winner.
