Canelos improvement since Floyd has been extremely exaggerated.

    He has improved but he can still be outboxed. Many ppl feel he never beat Triple G anyway. And that was a good style match up for him. He’s the face of the sport right now.

    Canelo bores me. I mean, he's wise to be economical with his punches, but it makes for a boring fight. He fights like Old Foreman. I pick GGG to beat him when they clash again.

    Why are you bringing nations/countries into this? I dont give a **** if a boxer is EE, Nicaraguan, or ****ing Zulu, I give a **** about giving fighters credit where it is due and not hyping up frauds who never fight on an even playing field

    I actually agree with everything you typed. But if you think Canelo fans are bad then you haven't seen Rocky Marciano fans. They still think that a 5'10 180 guy from the 50's could beat modern sized heavyweights.

    Canelo has improved..


    With that being said.. Floyd would stomp him out 10 out of 10 times. Just a bad style match up for him.

    You just have to learn to take a loss, and keep on wishing Canelo loses.

    The latest anti-Canelo narrative: None of his opponents came to win.

    Have you got proof of that? Or is that just your feelings?

    And then the funny thing is it's followed with "I've presented the facts" hahaha dude what facts? Those are feelings.

    All you need to do is type "Canelo counter punching" into YouTube where multiple people break down his counters and how much this alone has improved since the Mayweather bout.

    Not only his counters, but his head movement. These two aspects alone is miles apart. Vs Floyd he ate too many jabs, simple as that. Still dished out a variety of punches on Floyd, feinted him out of his mind, and taught him how to fight off the ropes. Not bad in a nights work.

    Do you think Mayweather’s hand speed had anything to do with Alvarez eating jabs against him?

    Canelo himself isn't necessarily boring but his last three fights before Saunders was. Wading forward soaking up shoe shine punches from the high guard while the opponent offers very little resistance.
