    its a challenging fight that his career has lacked. he has a knack for avoiding the challenge when it presents itself. from a prime de la hoya, to a prime cotto, hes found a way to avoid facing them when they were at their best. no surprise once again, that he is leaning toward guerrero and not canelo

    canelo is such a question mark which is why the fight is interesting....

    at times an old ass mosley troubled canelo which makes u think a 37 year old floyd would trouble canelo and box circles around him, but also floyd is fading. i think general consensus, based on historical patterns that older fighters lose to younger fighters, that its a dangerous flight for floyd regardless of how green canelo is

    but joseito lopez went toe to toe with victor ortiz. and canelo completely blow lopez away. does this indicate that canelo hits harder than ortiz? although floyd was outboxing ortiz, there is also that big question mark of what would have happened bc it just seemed as if victor was getting mad and looking to crank it up.

    floyd vs canelo, like floyd career in general, is a big qeustion mark and its the most dangerous fight for floyd!

    The plodding, slow thinking 22 year old who fights in spurts because he's gasping for air in between combinations?

    canelo will manhandle floyd if given the chance, not because he is so good but because floyd aint enough at 154. the truth is gaining on floyd, he cant outrun it much longer.

    I think Canelo would flurry and pull back so that Floyd had to press to win the round and then look to try to power counter off of Floyd's work, since he seems more of a counter puncher than a seek and destroy type fighter IMHO.

    Normal.

    Anyone Floyd beats, afterwards, seem to be "past their best" imo due to Floyd making it look so damn easy sometimes.

    I'm no Floyd nut hugger, at all, but I've been here long enough to see the recurring pattern of "c'mon he was washed up [etc] threads" after PBF wins. I'm not saying anything other than, alot of the time, certain ESB members gather and downplay Floyd wins, but like the opposite with Pac haters as well..

    Will Canelo replace Pac as one for Floyd to hide from ?
