    Another use of slapping on the inside is to make the other person think that they're still there. Obviously an absence of touch on the inside either means the opponent is punching, or trying to get out. I remember Canelo slapping Beefy Smith's high-guard and then turning over his right hook. Lo and behold, Smith had dropped his hands to keep on walking Canelo down, and got twatted for his troubles. He did similar things vs Angulo, as well. He doesn't seem to do it as much nowadays, he's more of a pressure fighter.

    Canelo doesn't really set up his power punches with slaps, TBF. He uses forearm blocks and parries more for his cross, and feints for his lead hook. He does turn his lead hook into a pin or an overhook quite well though, similar to Joshua, actually.

    Bro, i just read that in Red heads, the drugs show up 15 times less than in people with dark hair. The redheads show the least amount of drugs in their system, blonds are next something like 10 times less.So when the amount of drugs in the system is relavent, this follicle test is not accurate, or just times Canelo's trace amounts by 15 to get a more accurate answer. Wow these cheats are slick, they don't tell the whole story do they?

    Canelo should be 2-0 against GGG. Using the 10 pt must scoring system Golovkin is lucky to escape with a draw.

    But it shows... that's the point. If Canelo had used quantities needed to cheat, clenbuterol would have been detected in his hair, the amounts detected are irrelevant for this. The fact that zero came up supported that he was clean.

    The article in the Ring said that Clenbuterol has to be used six months or longer to even show up in the hair follicle test. So if he used it for 2 or 3 months its not going to show up. So who knows.

    Yes no doubt albeit to be fair to him GGG did beat a better, more experienced, juiced - stronger, more powerful, fitter, and who was much more experienced against prime world and elite class opposition and healthier at the weight than the one who was trounced by Floyd.

    Canelo has 2 losses in my book which ultimately means nothing.

    But that's some petty BS agenda some of you have here. Losing to FLoyd and GGG does not erase Canelo's potential greatness(if he's not already great).


    Let me remind you all that fighters like, SRR, SRL, JCC, Duran, Hagler, Hearns, Marquez, Pacquio, RJJr, Hopkins, etc(the list goes on and on) have losses on their ledgers and they are still considered great.

    Some of you need to man TFU and stop acting like vindictive high school girls.

    Those who say that he lost to Vasquez, Larry Mosley, Trout, Lara, Cotto, Golovkin twice, Jacobs, and of course Mayweather.
