    make Floyd and Canelo same size p4p (although Nelo with the 20 lb weight advantage), give Floyd healthy hands before he made them extra brittle, and younger, and he beats Canelo even worse than he did back 8 years ago when he was already 36

      He probably wasn’t in his prime but he called Alvarez in his prime then lmao

      Canelo is 10 times the fighter now

        Curious when did Alvarez prime start you think?

        dude changed his style up many times through the years. Hard to tell when he primed

          Floyd goes the extra mile to promote his fights. Lights up in front of the camera

          most fighters don’t get this and act boring on cam. But will wild out at the club

            Most fair match I think would be

            Floyd who fought dlh vs Alvarez who fought Kirkland

            by then Alvarez already faced Lara who moved real well

            I still think Floyd gives him fits due to styles

              problem with Canelo is that he has cement feet and nobody can just outbox Floyd. You have to make it a dogfight. Maidana isn't on Canelo/Floyd level but he made it a tough night for Floyd in their first meeting by not fighting Floyd's fight. Canelo would always make it Floyd's fight.

                this why tomorrow’s fight will be good

                Every time Alvarez fights a guy who can box we get to see how much he has improved

                  I'll happily admit if I'm wrong, and I'm a Canelo fan. But I got Billy making an upset. I just got that gut feeling he's gonna get on his Buster Douglas and do some **** we've never seen before. Easier said than done obviously, so yes I am SUPER excited for tomorrow!!

                    He made it a tough fight because Floyd decided to stand he has done this a few times in his career, when he decided to box Maidana was an easy beat , Floyd is good enough that he can stand toe to toe or box your ears off he does everything at elite level, he does have a trench dog in him but he is also very ring intelligent .
