    The kid was 172 lbs and is still growing. Floyd is way more skilled than this kid, but he's a lot smaller. People want Floyd to lose so bad, and they don't care if it takes a damn light heavyweight on fight night to do it.

    He should take it with a big ring n big gloves. Canelo stamina is ****. Even with older legs he could pot shot and win easily.

    Floyd is skilled enough, in comparison to Canelo, Saul could be 180 on fight night and I'd still pick Mayweather.

    lol here come the excuses. Canelo's too big but Oscar / Cotto weren't.

    Canelo IS too big. I still want to see it, and obviously not just "so Floyd can lose".

    He's getting massive Credit for That ****. And it would, obviously, make the boxing world go absolutely bananas.

    Just the opposite, Canelo showed him that he could be beat (maybe canelo took it easy on purpose, to get floyd to fight him) but the way Canelo fought tonight, floyd wins 9 - 3 UD

    Yea. I just think that if this was Canelo's "best performance to date", then size is the ONLY thing he has on Floyd.

    Perfectly fine but it's the exact reason he shouldn't be spoken of in the same sentence as SRR and Duran.

    Canelo hurt another 170 pounder badly tonight. Floyd would get seriously hurt. An as much talent as floyd has its not gonna make up for the 20 plus pound difference
