How come Canelo did not take more chances?

because canelo alvarez is not julio ceasar chavez jr.

how in the world do people even compare chavez/martinez to canelo/mayweather?

 

Mix bright white skin and bright red hair, you get ***** pink.

 

many people actually believed that canelo did as well as chavez. you can read the delusional here. statistically and physically the fights werent even close.

Canelo isn't a pressure fighter he always fights like he did on Saturday night. I have no idea why people expected Canelo to try and throw 80 punches a round and be willing to eat 3 shots to land 1? That's not his style he's a boxer puncher not a pressure fighter, he can't fight like that. His game plan going in was to try and outbox PBF even as foolish as that sounds, he and his team bought into the hype and actually thought he was the superior boxer to PBF and paid dearly for it on Saturday.

 

Canelo took a lot of chances. Canelo pushed the pace at times. Canelo threw more punches than Floyd did!!

You're criticizing Canelo for not being aggressive against Floyd. If you get too aggressive against Floyd you could get KTFO. Look what happened to Hatton and guys like Gatti who "pushed the pace".

You guys really need to watch this fight again. Canelo was landing some hard punches on Floyd. Stiff jabs snapped Floyd's neck back. If you don't believe me I can make some .gif files and show you. Floyd tried to roll with them like he usually does but Floyd definitely got caught a lot. Canelo even made Floyd flinch (faking throwing a punch) on more than one occasion.

 

I'm not really sure to what to say about, Canelo's actions. I've thought the same thing. I think he's not ready for that type of competition. If you get a chance, review the fight between Cotto vs FMJ...and you'll see what real effort to win a fight looks like, even if you're going to lose !

 

Real effort? What are you talking about? You think Canelo's "effort" was lacking?

Canelo landed more punches than Cotto did vs FMJ.
Canelo landed at a higher percentage than Cotto did vs FMJ.
Canelo won more rounds than Cotto did vs FMJ.

Any way you slice it, Canelo fought a much closer more competitive fight vs FMJ than Cotto did.

 

Floyd wasn't there for him to force the fight. He tried but Floyd would just out maneuver him and tag him. He was scared of being made to look like a real dam fool. Plus he was feeling Floyds punches and when he hit Floyd with a good shot, Floyd didn't even blink. He had to resort to cheap shots and carrying on like a real adolescent. He knew halfway through that he was out of his league but so many people believed in him that he had to fight on or risk getting ****ed up when he got back home.

 

This message is hidden because shadow111 is on your ignore list.:rofl

 

Floyd had more fouls than Canelo did. Floyd was hitting Canelo in the kidneys during clinches. Both Floyd and Canelo had one low blow each. Floyd hit Canelo in the back more times than Canelo hit Floyd in the back.

 

In your opinion

 

If you have to ignore someone, then you don't have good enough points to add to the discussion. I don't ignore anyone because it's a sign of weakness. If you have to ignore someone, especially someone like me who is having an intelligent discussion, then you're probably not worth talking to anyway.

The fact is people are denial about this fight. If you want to continue living your life of false narratives, then that's your prerogative. Some of us here actually want to talk logically about boxing.

 

You do ignore. Answer this. Do you know for certain Canelos ideal fight night weight v Floyd. Not what he was for trout.
