Master Class: Just watched Mayweather-Canelo Again

He was 36 for this fightatsch

Rest of the post is solid.

 

No you didn't just say that ...

 

I agree with this.

Since he doesn't take any punishment in the ring, it seems that he adds on a little bit of knowledge from every fight he's in and utilizes it in his future/subsequent fights.

It's very odd to see what he's doing at such an advanced age because being this dominant in your late 30's is such an anomaly in this sport. BUt when you think of his style and his boxing IQ, it makes sense that he's getting better and better as the years go by.

And the person that said JLC-Mayweather I was a masterclass performance is delusional, that was a tough fight for both men. That was also over a decade ago, other fighters have tried to emulate JLC's style inside the ring with Floyd and have done far worse. And this is primarily because FLoyd learns from everyone of his fights, has now fought pretty much every style there is to see, and has become a lot more judicious with his style to ensure he doesn't get inflicted with too much punishment in any fight he's in.

There's a saying that many boxers and reporters use this day when describing Floyd: The only person that can beat Floyd Mayweather is Floyd Mayweather.

 

Toughing out a win at the championship level with one arm is certainly noteworthy.

 

Quite right, Victor. The haters always seem to forget the fact that Mayweather fought most of that fight with effectively one arm.

 

RJJ beat Bernard Hopkins with one hand. :hey

 

He is miles better now than before. Though he was always smart, his early days featherweight to his fight with ODLH, opponents couldn't out talent him. Since his return, opponents can't out talent/out think him. Look for his best WW performance against Maidana. Knockout/Stoppage more than likely, but well see.

 

is this 152 or 155 drainelo?

 

It's easy to put on a master class when your fighting guys that's not on your level..I'm sure a similar thread will come out after he does the same thing to a flat footed Maidana !

 

mayweather is on a different level than canelo...

canelo looked amateurish against him
