He's pillow fisted with a low punch output. His last three fights have fights have been snoozefests.
And before someone brings up Mayweather: At least with Floyd you were going to see a technical masterpiece every time he fought, and if you weren't interested in the finer aspects of boxing at least the build to the fight was going to entertain you. With Canelo you get none of that. I seriously can't remember the last time I felt like I got my moneys worth from a Canelo fight.

Actually, for the most part, his opponents are boring.
We seen the same style out of him since his move to 168 and with little variation. I do miss him throwing combinations and counter punching. Look when he fought Khan he boxed him and countered him, he knocked him out with a timed counter shot.
Jermell he just did the same thing over and over and barely got any head shots in and didnt make any adjustments and didnt set up his shots with jabs or feints which is why jermell could eat them and never got knocked out.

Is he boring or have we just seen too much of him? It's possible to reach fatigue with certain fighters.

At least Nelo fights who people want him to. At least we know Nelo beats Floyd at any weight above 160
What are you talking about, people have been asking him to defend his titles against David Benavidez for 4 fights now and hes done the following:
- jumped to 175 for high risk fight with built in excuse that hes too small
- 40 year old geriatric GGG
- Ryder
- Jermell the smaller twin from 2 divisions below.
Nobody asked for ANY of those fights. Hes went 4 fights in a row fighting guys nobody wanted to see
I remember watching the Gayweather/Baldomir fight and they showed Tiger Woods get up and leave mid fight. I mean if that didn't let people know how boring of a boxer Gayweather was, that a golfer said "f.uck this boring sh.it, I'm out", then I don't know what is!
I don't remember half the arena walking out of a Canelo Alvarez fight, like they did with Floyd vs. Baldymir

reason Canelo fight boring is because T.P.T.B. (The Powers That Be) in boxing told him to NOT KO opponents so that Canelo does not look spectacular in the ring & becomes boring to watch because he's Mexican and TPTB don't want Mexico to have another KO Superstar like past Mexican champions such as- Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., and many other past Mexican greats, because they dont want the world to keep on knowing & thinking that Mexico is great in boxing.
Interesting theory...

Maidana's biggest fight prior to fighting Floyd was a loss to Amir Khan. The Guerrero and Ortiz fights were garbage too. Mayweather's career was horribly frustrating to most people who didn't worship the guy.
Thanks for not knowing boxing.
Maidana got the floyd fight immediately after he beat undefeated 3 division champion Adrien broner in a showtime main event. Facts
Guerreo was a 1 loss fighter on a 7 year unbeaten streak, who'd been headling on hbo and showtime for years. Not some unheard of u.k. guy who never beat a champion. Facts
Ortiz was coming off winning the fight of the year against a undefeated welterweight champion in berto. Facts
Did i like the ortiz and Guerrero selections? No. But the facts i stated are still facts.
Everybody floyd fought as the ppv king was somebody before they fought floyd.
Haaahahjajaja this coming from a mfer with the name "Floyd is the TBE" hahahahahahahahahahahhahahabhahababbabababah!!!!
****in idiot Floyd has got to be the mot boring fighter EVER!!!!!!!
But you probably wacked off to his every move because you share the same complexion yea we know how it goes.
Difference between them is ppll went to see boring Floyd lose to where ppl right now go to see canelo win because he's levels above excitement compared to fairy floyd.
What an idiot!!!!!!
People know canelo opponents have no chance, most of them, the casuals never even heard of. Who thinks canelo is gonna lose to yldrim, fielding, Ryder, 40 year old ggg, Billy Joe, callum Smith, James Kirkland, Chavez jr,.....
Where maywewther opponents were somebody before they fought Floyd. Cotto, de la hoya, Pacquiao, mosley, Castillo, Corrales, judah, even berto and maidana had been in big fights.
No yldrim, Ryder, fieldings for floyd
Don't ever compare a guy who couldn't win a round against Floyd to floyd. Its just makes canelo look worse
Used to be more exciting, especially when he was using head movement. Now he's low volume come forward behind the high guard and wing punches, talks about his power but hasn't gotten a stoppage since Plant. He's still fun to watch. But haters will always have something bad to say, because it makes them feel better to try to bring down someone who has accomplished more than they ever will.
No its about how insecure you are.
When is a guy who is coming forward walking his man down boring.
Everybody knows yous a Floyd boy with an axe to grind
I don't even know why I tried to have a serious conversation with you.
So tell us then, do you think Canelo is exciting? Because you're just trying to make this thread about Floyd without addressing the topic.

No that's your opinion.

He can only fight one at a time and Nelo once in a while fights someone you wasnt expecting but Charlo is no Maidana, or Berto, or Guerrero or Ortiz, even taking Charlo being bloated up 2 divisions into consideration. Especially when much tougher fighters are available to fight than a Maidana, or Berto.
But nelo how much do you want to bet he fights Benevideaz sometime soon, or Bivol sometime soon?
Buddy, the guy fought bivol by mistake, but the fight happened, and we have to give him credit for it. Next, he fought ryder, why? And now charlo who he dragged two divisions up, why? He's canelo, the guy can choose who he fights. Are you guys, don't get tired of excusing this fraud? Back in the day, we didn't have to excuse the ones we followed, Duran, Hagler, Qawi, Saad Muhammed, Eddie Greg, Spinks, Leonard, Hearns, Curry, Arguello, the list goes on and on. You guys has to defend this guy every time he fights because he is cherry-picking all the time.
Mayweather's desire for universal acclaim was ridiculous. It's like, dude, you're a sportsman. You're not curing cancer or coming up with a unified field theory. It's only because western culture so overvalues sports and entertainment (i.e. passively consuming content) that you're so wealthy in the first place. Be content with that. Outside his cult of internet fanboys plenty of people think Elon Musk is a dick too.
Nah Bro it's worse than that.
Dude had to stop a reporter talking to his young protege because he said he was one of the all time best:
https://youtube.com/shorts/cCbn79oQ1...Hx_Vlr0iwx8q0f
I mean, the reporter isn't lying. Thats just total insecurity. Dude couldn't even allow his own fighter to get his needed exposure. Literally shoved the kid out the way. Somebody needs to talk to this clown seriously. Reporter should have had the balls to stop Floyd in his tracks and continue interviewing the young fighter.
Funny I don't remember Roger or his pops doing anything like that to him when he was starting out.
