    You said you are too much of a dog to have a relationship. You said that, remember? Probably a reason you can't hold on to a women. Even with your THREE MERCADES! What!?!? :lol:

    And WTF is this cannery crap? :lol: Never even stepped in one before Cleetus...

    Doesn't mean I'm single, just means I don't want to get married and wouldn't put my children's mother through it because I'm a dog. Our relationship works best the way it is.

    If it’s “PBF” he would be at 50-60ish % himself.

    however he was “Money”Mayweather when They fought
    & money had a different fighting style then Pretty Boy Floyd.

    Less risk taking & more of a one & done style.
    It was a beautiful masterclass nonetheless , money was a master of adjustments & he adjusted his fighting style beautifully as he aged.

    I’d say money may was about 70-80% of himself at that point.
    Still was able to shut kid Nelo out.
    It Was a dope performance .

    Well I don't think prime Floyd would be able to beat Canelo right now.

    So definitely less than 100%

    Nah he’s mad cause you are border line autistic with a constant need to talk Floyd up and interject his name where it’s not called for.

    This thread is about Canelo on that night, doesn’t matter who else brought up Floyd, you didn’t have to but did by mentioning a completely different fight fifteen years earlier due to raging insecurities about Floyd.

    Nah he's mad because for years he picked and rooted against pbf and gave his fans hell every chance be got. In the end he was proven wrong and is mad about it so he messes with pbf fans till this day. Lastly if you don't like me telling the truth about this thread then too damn bad. My point was very valid. I will always speak my mind and there's nothing you or anyone else can do about it.

    I'd say Canelo was 80-85% of his peak form for this fight.

    I would say Canelo was at 85%-90% at the very least and Floyd’s expert tuition completed him. Floyd at age 36 was only about 60-70% of what he used to be. Peak Floyd would have stopped such was the dominant performance.

    We've seen all kinds of %s in this topic. Some say 50% or 60% you say 85%-90% at least. I think part of the problem is that you and others are seeing Canelo through a different prism and it's causing you to calculate what % he was 8 years ago vs what he is %. Also you have to factor in the catchweight when you are doing your %. So if he was 85%-90% vs Floyd vs what he is now, then what % would he be for Trout. Vs Trout he'd have to be at least 10%-15% higher than he was than he was vs Floyd because he wasn't drained with the catchweight vs Trout and was a much better version of himself than when he fought Floyd. And if you already have him at 85%-90% vs Floyd there's not much room to go up. Then you have his progression over the last 8 years you could argue he increased 5% or so every year from where he was 2013 till now.

    It wasn't peak Floyd but the only number that matters: 100% schooling. Canelo 75% plus.
