    I voted draw just because i thought itd be funny. Anyone that seriously had that fight a draw should never be allowed to judge another boxing match. I dont care if its a championship fight or one in an ally behind a gay bar. I absolutely hate FlIVd but he wiped the floor with Canelo. Not sure i could give canelo more than 2 rounds.

    10-2 Floyd i had if i remember right.
    Although admittedly to be sure i would have to watch it again, last time i watched that fight was a good 5-6 months ago.
    114-114 was a disgrace though, Floyd won that fight by a long shot and Canelo was well out of his depth.
    Mayweather was levels above him.

    OK I found my recording of the fight and I'm rewatching it as we speak. I'm watching each round twice, first from the broadcast and then I'm verifying it with a youtube video that shows the fight from another angle.

    So far I watched the first 4 rounds and I am compiling a scorecard. Lets just say that the first 4 rounds were very very interesting. When I'm done I'll create a thread with my full scorecard after further review.

    Mind you, your wormhole theory might explain where some of the posters on BF24 come from. There's guys out there posting that are clearly from an alternate universe who saw the same fights I saw that went completely differently to the videos we have :thinking:

    115-113 and 116-112 are disgraceful scorecards for a fight that was a shutout. Canelo won 1-2 rounds MAX.

    There are about 10 other fighters who were more competitive vs Floyd than Canelo, it was one of his most easiest and plain-sailing fights in recent years.

    I'm going through the fight round by round. I suggest you re-watch the bout yourself so when I give my round by round analysis and scorecard you can relate to the details of the fight that I will be providing. I'm going through every round and detailing it punch by punch leaving no stone unturned. When I get through all the rounds I'll post my scorecard and round by round explanations.

    I ain't going to rewatch it today I've got work, but I'm interested to hear your opinion. I'm also interested to see what your Trout vs Canelo scorecard was.

    I'm literally studying this as meticulously as possible. I got the broadcast and a youtube video showing the fight from another angle so to get clarification on hard to see exchanges. It's a fascinating multi-layered high speed chess match.

    No there weren't. I'm giving this a very detailed look and am trying to be as fair and as unbiased as I can. This was one of Floyd's most challenging fights. I've gone through the first 4 rounds a handful of times. Now I'm moving on to round 5. This may take a while. I don't want to rush this. I will produce a scorecard with a round by round, punch by punch summary of what happened.
