So So. It was solid, but his endurance really puts a damper on it. It's not like he has high output and he was breathing very heavily towards the end. He does exert a lot on his punches, but still.
He was throwing solid punches all the way to the end!!! Stamina is an issue had he ran out of gas like Angulo or if his punches had lost power. I know many don't respect Cintron; however, he is still a decent boxer and if you expect for Canelo to not break a sweat, then you are not being realistic. I suggest you hit a punching bag and see how long you last. :hi:
C+ I'm disappointed that Cintron wasn't brutally KTFO (or forced to say "no mas") by the 2nd. :bart Seriously. Cintron sucks. He kind of sucked as a welterweight, and he sucks BAD as a junior middleweight. WTF were people thinking giving him a chance here? This was a horrible mismatch, and Canelo ain't even all that and a bag of chips.
Very good, shy of excellent at 21 definitely has room to grow and experience to gain, but very good... and demonstrated great power good countering ability, should work on stamina and weaving more... but was very good.
Good name to add, I mean they are being careful in adding him and like 154 many unproven guys, he does have a gift belt... but he is progressing quite nicely... Molina outboxed him, Canelo TkO'd him, and Molina is a pretty good fighter.
I thought his defense was pitiful. One heckuva puncher, but Mayweather could beat him & do laundry at the same time.
Not bad. He's improving. Has his ways to go before he's ready for Mayweather though. He should be thinking Kirkland/Bundrage/Angulo for now. IMO the dude's not ready for Mayweather or even Cotto
Solid enough. He did what he needed to - he dropped to Cintron's level a few times. He's young and still improving. No real issues.
It was good. Hard to draw conclusions off of one fight against a gatekeeper, but his counterpunching and handspeed were solid. Still has a lot of holes defensively and he seems a little stiff and rigid when he throws in combination.
It was pretty good. He could have been a bit more aggressive and seemed a little tired, but overall he was setting up his shots very well and showed both good offense and defense. He's improving.
