I see a lot of people on here saying Canelo was exposed or that he wasnt ready. But lets face it...Mayweather isnt your average fighter. I think Canelo fought a better fight than Marquez...does that make JMM too green as well? He was landing some nice hooks up top and downstairs. I felt it was a competitive fight. Just wasnt close.
He got a boxing lesson at the hands of a master boxer, no shame in it. PBF will do that to probably anyone he faces. He wasn't exposed just outclassed. Canelo is a good fighter and will be a champ again soon.
canelo barely landed anything meaningful...everything he threw was basically blocked, nothing clean.. flloyds defense is too much; he blocks body shots and rolls head shots.. on top of that, his speed devasitated canelo...his jabs hits canelo and like 1/2 a second later canelo flitches and be like 'shyt, what just hit me?'. Canelo not expose, he just have no resolved for mayweather, dont think anybody will. Canelo will come back
No shame in Canelo's performance. He just got out-boxed by a master. Give credit where credit is due, and that's to Mayweather.
He wasn't exposed. Dude got a majority decision vs the P4P #1. He did better than anyone else on Floyd since DLH. Canelo should be commended and has a bright future.
He's just not as talented as people would like you to believe. Canelo is an average champion who just happens to be extremely marketable.
I think you should get a liftime ban for having the audacity to post a honest, reasonable and sensible post.
lol at the MD outcome......please dont post that you really thought it was that close. just saying, it was worse call then the bradley/pac..
That lady is getting blasted by every media news agency in this country that covers boxing. I'd be surprised she gets another big gig again after all this public backlash. TV, Radio, and Print, all blasting the card from CJ Ross. The boxing commissions do not like that.
Keith Kizer came out and defended CJ Ross pointing out that Ross scored the fight in line with the majority besides the first and eighth rounds. He also stated "Discipline does not make sense here. It's a review process. What I plan to do is look at that eighth round. If I review a round and don't understand why the judge went that way, I'll (talk) with the judge. If I understand why the judge went that way, it would be unfair to criticize." People like Dan Rafael are an embarrassment to the sport. Rafael scored the fight a shutout in Mayweather's favor and he doesn't know jack sh*t about boxing. This is textbook mob mentality and inability to give credit for clean effective punching.
You've been beating this dead horse issue for several days. Rafael may not be the brightest bulb BUT he probably knows more than you and me. 12-0 is definitely more believable than 6-6. What makes you an expert BTW?
You think it's just Dan criticizing her? Just do a Google search for various news articles relating to CJ Ross. CJ Ross is getting blasted and nobody gives two shits what Kizer thinks, who is paid to defend their judges. Dan doesn't know jack **** about boxing? OK, which major publication do you write boxing articles for again? How many live fights have you been to compared to Dan Rafael? I bet he's been to 1,000 more fights than you have. You are seriously an ass hat who needs to get out more. Go get a boyfriend or something, seriously. (You must be female, because your arguments are devoid of logical thought)
JMM was a ntural featherweight. The fight was before he started on PEDs. Canelo is not in floyd's class. Canelo will have a good career but nothing spectacular.
42 fights and he's green? At the end of the day a flat footed fighter who doesn't have a big punch output isn't going to beat Mayweather. Trying to outbox Mayweather isn't a good gameplan.
