May vs Canelo=Martinez vs Chavez/Pavlik

canelo's much better than those guys..... canelo's a great technician. Against Jr welterweights. Pavlik beat Miranda and Taylor twice, and was way more impressive against them then Canelo was against Trout

It will look similar to Martinez-Chavez, Canelo will barely throw punches while walking around

Quote: all im saying is that if floyd and canelo were the same size and build, this would be an easy fight for floyd,,, Canelo brings danger because he is bigger and stronger Agreed Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

canelo's much better than those guys..... canelo's a great technician. Technician? Name one Top Ten Jr Middleweight he has fought besides Trout? Hopkins= Technician Marquez=Technician . Beating welters that are in front of u that u r physically bigger than doesn't make u a technician. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

CW, no excuses. There's a reason for them. CW are traditional used when one guy has never been up in that weight,,, But floyd has been at 154 twice before and is a champion there so i think the CW is stupid in this fight,,, I actually think it backfires on floyd because it will force canelo to be in great shape. canelo has always seemed to me to be alittle soft and doesnt fight all 3 mins of each round,, he fights in spurts, and slows down greatly after about 6 rounds,, I think the CW will make canelo train harder, be in better shape, and will give him a better chance at beating floyd.... I wont make excuses for either guy after the fight, no matter who wins,,, all im saying is that if floyd and canelo were the same size and build, this would be an easy fight for floyd,,, Canelo brings danger because he is bigger and stronger

if he does its only because he is bigger and not because he is better,,,, Canelo is a good fighter,,, but floyd on a whole other level... if canelo beats him it will be like when hopkins beat oscar,,, bigger guy beat up small guy... floyd isnt a legit 154 guy I even think he is a small welter,,,, if floyd cut weight like 99% of fighters do, he would be at 140 smoking everyone there,,,, I am kinda rooting for canelo in this one,,, but the only advantage is size CW, no excuses. There's a reason for them.

Canelo got this. I'll be here to say, "I told you so." if he does its only because he is bigger and not because he is better,,,, Canelo is a good fighter,,, but floyd on a whole other level... if canelo beats him it will be like when hopkins beat oscar,,, bigger guy beat up small guy... floyd isnt a legit 154 guy I even think he is a small welter,,,, if floyd cut weight like 99% of fighters do, he would be at 140 smoking everyone there,,,, I am kinda rooting for canelo in this one,,, but the only advantage is size

Canelo got this. I'll be here to say, "I told you so."

Canelo cant move and punch at the same time,,,, that is what seperates good fighters from great,,, hopkins, jones, jmm, floyd, manny,morales, could all punch and move at the same time canelo is in the same league as tarver, pavlik, chavez jr, tito, where they need to be stationary to unload, and get flustered by movement,,,, floyd by UD,,, unless canelo catches him,,, canelo has a punchers chance,,

Now why use Hopkins-Pavlik as a reference when you've got Floyd Vs Guerrero. He dominated the B+ level Guerrero and the question here is, will he do the same to Canelo. And the obvious answer is NO. This has 115-113, 116-112 type of decision written all over it. I used Hopkins Pavlik because this fight will be where the old dog teaches a young dog new tricks and possible mentally ruins him

If Alvarez did as well as Pavlik against Martinez, I'd be impressed. Pavlik won 4 rounds in that fight and dropped Sergio.

In all honesty i think this fight could end up more like Hopkins-Pavlik where the teacher takes a child to school...Canelo is a student of the game and has a bright future but this will be a hands on schooling

Nah, Canelo is better than Chavez and Pavlik and he also takes his craft far more seriously than those guys did. Although I believe Floyd will win, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if Canelo gives him a tough fight, much tougher than the fights Chavez and Pavlik gave Martinez.

Well Canelo is a smarter fighter then Pavlik and Chavez and isnt an alcoholic as far as i know..But in the same sense he does have to set his feet in order to set up his combos and does have stamina issues.I do think Floyds movement will throw him off and frustrate him and his workrate is already low so he may not even get off 200 punches this fight
