    I think people are starting to realize that it doesn't matter who Floyd fights.

    Floyd was the aggressor except the 12th... Canelo had No answers.... I gave canelo the 12th and that because floyd did next to nothing

    Only dummies and casuals thought this was going to be a close fight.

    What are you talking about? At times Canelo was the aggressor throughout the fight. Floyd was running away most of the last few rounds.

    Floyd runs in most of his matches. His whole game is avoiding being hit. He is the king of the shoulder roll defense, which is designed for avoiding your opponent. It is a boxing defense, not a fight defense. He wants no part of fighting. He only wants to be faster with his jab and avoid most of your offense on his way to a decision. In some ways this makes him smarter than the rest. It just doesn't make for a good fight.

    OP, you say that now, but you will fall for the hype again. It was slightly disappointing, but it was still a fun buildup.

    i was nervous because floyd was taking the fight to alveraz early!, not jabbing and moving feeling him out for the first few rounds.. he usually did that during the first minute of each round before throwing together some offence. floyd rolled beautifully in the pocket, sent canelo back harder better punches and moved out.. rinse and repeat all night but he constantly took the fight to him

    honestly, you will be fooled again. I don't know you, but I know that you are stupid for believing Canelo had a chance. I assume you watch boxing because you post on this site, so if you actually watch boxing and believed a hype job like Canelo who has fought no one, had a chance, than you will continue to be a sheep. You should delete this post, don't admit you a moron who knows nothing about boxing.

    He did have a chance. He was doing well early. Canelo came out very defensive, if he would have fought more aggressively he could have caught him with a big shot. But it wasn's a bad gameplan.
