Will Bud use Floyd’s blueprint to beat Canelo?

With all due respect to one of the best of this era, Bud ain't Floyd.

 

the schooling Floyd gave Canelo was remarkable
Yes Canelo was a little green, but he was more seasoned than many believe. Already a world champion with many fights under his belt

Floyd was still 23 when he put on an all time great performance by whipping chico and 36 is old for a guy in the low to mid weight classes. He was definitely not in his prime physically, so it cancels out canelo being 23 imo

 

Plus Canelo was way bigger than Floyd.

 

We are not allowed to mention that, because Floyd has a bigger reach lol
I guess all of tyson's opponents where bigger than him also

 

Canelo had nothing to make Floyds brain even turn on in that fight

Canelo won't be drained and isn't as green...pretty near prime whilst Crawford is 38. Crawford will have success against the ginger midget but it's not an easy night. Work rate I how Crawford has to win. Will be tight points job for him.

 

He is not. He is nastier than Floyd so he may put on more of a beating on Canelo than Floyd or Bivol did.

 

Canelo was also a professional for 8 years too.

 

Exactly, but the haters make out he was some kid that has just graduated high school
Great win considering Floyd was easily 15lb lighter on the night and 36 with hand issues

 

It's the only time I've ever seen an older fighter in his mid 30s who's past his prime fighting a much bigger fighter not get credit for the win because people want to give the younger opponent excuses for some reason.

In reality it's just because Mayweather isn't liked if it was any other likeable fighter on this forum they would get a ton of a credit with no excuses.

It's called picking and choosing the narrative based on who you like or don't like which is bias.

 

100% and this is what has brought the worst out of me
There are those very people on this forum in recent days glazing Loma for dominating Rigo, despite him being the older fighter moving up 2 divisions. Yet Floyd gets zero credit for EASILY outboxing Marquez like an amateur under similar circumstances

People hate Floyd and there are many reasons, but I also think deep down they know how great he was and they never seen him get a beating

 

If Floyd had stepped on the gas he could have gotten Canelo out of there.
Crawford definitely will.

 

I can't stand Mayweather's personality but when someone is that good you have to give them the respect they deserve based on their ability it's as simple as that.

It's not a popularity contest and I'm never going to meet any of these boxers IRL anyway so along as they produce in the ring that's all that matters to me.

 

Agreed
Many people i don't like in the entertainment industry, but if they are talented actors or whatever, I will say it

I can separate the person from the athlete

Does anyone think Kevin Spacey is a terrible actor?

 

He beat all their favourite fighters most likely too.
