I hear that all the time. I have never seen the footage of the fight. However, even in Mexico the press reported that the fight was close and that Saul's power was probably the deciding factor. Also Mosley retired after the fight.
Just read that they have plans for him to fight at the Azteca for his first world title in 2010 He would definitely fill the stadium 100,000+ people. Saul himself says he is 4 fights away from a world title.
You can say whatever the **** you want about the fight. I watched it. Mosley got the best of it on the outside and on the inside. Canelo was so frustrated or tired that in 2 consecutive rounds in the latter part of the fight he laid on the ropes for 2 of the 3 minutes of the rounds and did not punch back. He won the fight because he was an undefeated mexican prospect and mosley broke his contract with golden boy. I dont give a **** what anyone says! Watch the fight and learn how to properly score a fight and then tell me what you thought. Untill then you can suck it!
I must commend you, it either takes immense courage for someone at your level to post on a public forum or the delusion of adequacy to do so. I was merely expressing my opinion as you attempted to do so.
Wasnt really singling anyone out, im just sick of people commenting on mosley vs canelo who obviously never saw the fight.
He's going to be a special fighter ... he's only 22 yrs old and he's already a universal top 15 fighter. He has a huge fan base and has yet to sell out ... I'm sure with the right timing - he might not ever have to leave Mexico ... he has a great following and can sell out a 10k capacity arena. I'm sure once he starts to step up in class i'm sure his buzz will get bigger. He's the future of Mexican boxing ... there shouldn't be a rush for this kid, with him being so young and inexperienced ... look for him to get a title within the next couple of years and fight the big names in boxing. I hope he stays at welterweight !!
Yeah, I agree. She's gotten almost haggard looking, and she's only in her early twenties. Early Julia Bond is where it's at.
I haven't seen the fight myself so can't comment, but you'd have to doubt your credibility when you claim a 5-0 prospect who has fought 9 rounds in total as a pro would beat Alvarez right now !
http://boxing-ring.blogspot.com/2008/10/saul-alvarez-vs-larry-mosley.html I only caught one fight from last night's fights at the Morongo Casino Resort and Spa, in Cabazon, California, and it was a fairly good one. Unbeaten welterweight prospect Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (22-0-1, 15 KOs) , of Juanacatlan, Jalisco, Mexico, won a unanimous ten round decision over Larry Mosley (15-3-1, 6 KOs) , of Los Angeles, California, who was fighting for only the second time after a two year layoff. Mosley was stopped in the sixth round in June of this year in his fight against Russell Jordan. The fight was scheduled for eight. Despite being a fairly decent boxer, Mosley was probably a safe bet for Alvarez. Alvarez, an aggresive fighter, fights with an exuberance, confidence and recklessness that only an undefeated 18 year old can. Forward moving and strong, he showed lots of potential but made a few of mistakes. Mainly, he over reaches when he throws his right hand and is open to a counter uppercut, made all the more dangerous because Alvarez keeps his chin up when he throws his right hand. The right opponent will take advantage of that. Still he's young and there's time to correct this. Alvarez took the fight to Mosley, who had his moments, but just didn't have the punch to capitalize on Alvarez' lack of a solid defense.
