I heard someone say "the fight was almost cancelled because Canelos trainer, Oscar De la Hoya was in rehab". atsch
Haven't really heard any or many excuses to be honest. Floyd won by decision, Great win! he outpointed Alvarez. End of discussion. Nobody was hurt or close to it & they both made a **** load of money while breaking records in the process.
Haven't read any excuses. Canelo fans at least have an understanding that good boxers can lose and come back, unlike a certain fan base who are still making excuses and in denial of KTFO6.
Yep same as the above. Havent heard any. Im a big Canelo fan, and I also dont have any. Maybe the thread starter hangs around a bunch of casual fans.
The only thing I've heard from casual fans is criticism of Floyd for picking such an unqualified opponent.
I know a lot of Mexican Casuals, no one made excuses, the only complaint was that it was boring. They were spoiled by Machine vs Crispy
The only excuse I heard was that Canelo having feet made of stone instead of muscle and bone was a major handicap for him.
The only excuses I heard were on this forum. 1. Floyd weight drained Canelo (one hundred threads on this alone) 2. Canelo was too inexperienced/took the fight too early. 3. Canelo's trainer was no good. 4. Canelo's hair got in his way. http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=488409&highlight=hair and my favorite: 5. Delahoya forced Canelo to leave high altitude training too early because he wanted Canelo to lose. http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=487354
Alvarez said that he couldn't give it his 100% because he was worried about Oscar in rehab. lol . Then theres the old Mayweather ran excuse.
