This sham of a roadshow has to end some where.
Canelo has lost to every fit, unhindered, top class opponent he has faced in Mayweather and Bivol and then he arguably lost to GGG twice, Lara and some think Cotto too. I'm probably missing a couple of names.
Then he goes back to fighting smaller guys, guys with injuries or nobodies.
The most sham career in boxing history.
Nelo was 147 and 154 before too. But charlo will unlikely to down to 154 again and more likely to be 175 by end of career.
Charlo also had height and reach, jmm didn't with floyd, and again charlo likely will go higher in weight whereas jm m wouldnt.
I can't say charlo is naturally smaller
When he was a teenager. :lol1:
Canelo couldn’t even make 160 nowadays, never mind 147.
Solid performance but he essentially just did what he was supposed to do against a naturally smaller guy.
99% of the time, Nelo is the smaller guy in the ring
Anf guess what
He was the smaller man AGAIN :boxing:
{"data-align":"none","data-size":"large","data-attachmentid":32026357}
Same MFers who always say ''But Pac was a flyweight :crying:.....''
It also seems clear to me his head and upper body movement has declined. Definitely not as agile as he used to be with his upper body.
That was my impression as well - massive change since e.g. the Cotto fight. To be fair, that was a long time ago, he moved up in weight in the meantime, and became a power puncher. I guess you just can't have both - same goes for Fury (just compare the Klitschko and Wilder 1 fights to his last few fights).
Canelo looked good physically which means that hes got a few more years in him. I was less impressed with him technically. He just does the same thing over and over. He got one good right hand in that caused charlo to take a knee. that right hand charlo was expecting it to go wide and moved like it would be another hook to the body but it split his guard and rocked him.... canelo needed to do more of that if he wanted a stoppage but instead he just kept ripping power hooks to the arms and body with no setup, no jab, no combos, no feints ect so charlo took all the shots pretty well and never in much danger of being stopped except that one time.
not impressed with canelo not making any type of adjustments
I couldn’t agree more with everything you said. I can’t ad much just reinforce your comments. Canelo looked better physically he has in a while, you could see it in his back. He didn’t have the lip around his waist like he did vs Bivol. He was punching hard, but he was still low volume and not very dynamic. I only want to see Canelo fight Benevidez or Beterbiev. Every single boxer who was interviewed leaving the arena was seemed pissed off for having been there.
yeah he clearly weighed more than Charlo on fight night. You can look at their weigh in and see who is more dehydrated and its canelo by a good margin. I dont believe him to be 5'8 either he is closer to 5'6.5 or 5'7''
Charlo was soft in the midsection as well. He should have just come in his usual weight and fought with speed. Canelo struggles with hand speed and foot speed. Why come in slow and pudgy?
And yeah, I really miss the Ring Weights that HBO used to give us.
Canelo was a former Light Heavyweight Champion, Charlo had never fought above 154.
Nelo was 147 and 154 before too. But charlo will unlikely to down to 154 again and more likely to be 175 by end of career.

I can't say charlo is naturally smaller
So how come everyone so impressed with bivo l beating a smaller nelo? Nel o still had to overcome height And reach disadvantages.

He was a teenager when he fought at 147. Which you brought up acting like Canelo is this ****ing baby midget,. He fought at 140 a handfull of times when he was 15 years old FFS.
No, he will be the shorter guy. He is wide AF. Full, back is massive. Stop with the misleading "HE'S ONLY 5'8 HE'S SO SMALL!!!" bull****.
He can't make 154. He can't make 160. He's a full fledged SMW. Stop with the nonsense. You just make yourself look like a ****** when you say he's fighting at 168 because he "doesn't want to cut weight"

Well bivol is the first guy to dominate nelo in 10 years so there is that. all these other guys at 168 are pretty much bivol's size but they dont have the sense of distance, timing and speed that bivol has. Most guys have height and reach on nelo, basically everyone hes fought in the last 6+ fights and none of them did what bivol did.

He looked much better than GGG 3 considering Golovkin much like Charlo offered zero resistance in the first half and Canelo gassed in that fight and not this one.
Solid performance but he essentially just did what he was supposed to do against a naturally smaller guy.

Well he looked a hell of a lot better than he did in his last fight which shows he hasn't totally lost it i think he looked good.
Yep. Much better stamina, speed, more headmovement, more jabbing. Though it could’ve also been the fact that Jermell didn’t push Canelo in any regard, Canelo fought at his pace and barely absorbed any punches on the guard or otherwise.
He was at 154 in his mid twenties, that's not a fking teenager lol. Whatever man, you wanna compare two guys who are 6 feet or taller to a 5'8" man. Canelo ain't big for 168 whatsoever. He'll be the smaller guy 99% of the time at his current weight and 100% of the time if he ever goes any higher. But yeah he's huge
hes also juicing his azz off. how do you not factor that into it?
