Top Rank or GBP will never allow this stylistic nightmare fight to happen. High risk low reward. Canelo team thought that Nelo had improved tremendously to warrant a fight like this but come fight night you will see once again that Canelo is canelo and he will be back stuck on his cement feet again, befuddled and will be there looking for a big punch finish that might never land .. At all.
Canelo was never in Mayweather--Pacquiao level. He is a tier below--more like a Cotto, GGG, Mosley etc ..that kind of level. The non-emergence of the true heir apparent to Pacquiao---Mayweather has benefited Canelo of this kind of worship but make no mistake about it, he is NOT at that level.
Come fight night. Canelo might lose to a decision "if the fight is close" because there's no longer a Golden Boy protection and they only have themselves to blame for choosing a match up like this.
Nailed it. People keep saying "bu but he improved" just cause he beat a bunch of stationary targets who just cashed out
What happened pp poopoo? I thought you said he hasn't improved & would be exposed as a plodder?:rofl:
My conclusion: Yes, Canelo is now better against slick fighters. But slick fighters remains a problem for him as evident when BJS has finally settled-in in the middle rounds.
These are the 2 biggest Canelo improvements I saw:
1. Canelo nowadays is not only 2-3x physically stronger than before but he has better timing now, more precise. He is at his absolute physical prime right now.
2. Smarter more economical punching placement (This is the key to his new improved stamina) Earlier, Nelo picked the biggest target he could find which is the body, smart, that took a little bit of clock for BJS to finally settle-in, around middle rounds was when BJS was finally beginning to settle in, we could see a little bit of Canelo's past (he could still be outboxed)
Sadly just when the fight is getting really interesting it ended abruptly. It gave the people a bad impression of BJS quitting. We'll wait for the injury report. If it's not something major like a broken orbital bone, this is going to be really bad for the remainder of his boxing career.
I never came in your thread, that's gross and g a y!

But you did though. Didn't you my main g a y? You're now a liar, guilty and gross! It's alright you can come out now there there.
We'll see. We're one fight away now. BJS had shown so far that he is in his right element in the built up of this fight. The first landed punch will tell if he can maintain this composure. My main interest lies is in whether or not the vaunted Canelo's improvement against slick fighters will show in this fight.
I think it plays out similarly to the Jacobs fight
There is too much money to make off of Clenela though. BJS might do a number on him but the diva will get the nod in the end.

I called you g a y. I'm straight, you're g a y. You like men, stop the sexual harassment.

But you are the g a y though--you like attention so much, you came in my thread, I never came to any of your threads. You started everything including you own fascination with g a y s. Is this another projection of yours? Are you a closet g a y? Not that there's anything wrong with that. Good person is good regardless of gender. So I'm telling you if you're g a y that's fine my main g a y.
I just think canelo hits way harder and that could be the difference
No doubt. Billy should never stand still long enough for Canelo to find those gaps and punch right through. We'll see if Billy can do this.
Begging for another man's attention = g a y

You just called yourself = g a y
You're the one started this alt calling thing remember. You're the one begging for attention from the start. You've been gay from the start.
Beat it kid, you'll never get to me. I'll break you.

But you can't break your own alt. We're one and the same.
Kov was washed and the fight was fixed, people don't understand how stupid it is. So you go life and death and possibly lose twice to a middleweight and then you go up 2 weight classes and KO someone who is a better boxer than GGG and punches harder? That would be like if Mikey Garcia had gone life and death with Dejan and Robert Easter at 135 but then went to 147 and brutally KOd Spence.
Whatever version of Kova that showed up that night, it wasn't really the right one. It could have been anything from being paid to a fixed fight (Kovalev is low enough to do this--he has this street personality that never went away), to a drained version, or simply went old overnight. From the opening bell his signature power jab has simply lost it's usual velocity--that should tell us that wasn't the best version of Kovalev.
I dislike both Spence and Crawford, better luck next time kid.
As your alt anything is possible though. My persona could be the exact opposite of my main War Room.
He was afraid of canelo he respected him too much so he preferred to use his Height and reach advantage.
he did the best he could he just lost to a better man. We can make excuses for any fighters loss that’s not difficult to do. I didn't see it that way. Looks to me he was afraid of hurting canelo. A guy that just three or four weeks before was in a war against a bigger man, afraid of canelo? I don't think so. Stay safe
