    This “bruvva” talk is ridiculous. You can just say black. Bruvva doesn’t make you seem more knowledgeable or hip, just like you like to mimic blacks poorly. Just black will do and no Canelo is not black. Not with that foot movement.

      That kind of stay-in-the-pocket-slick, with superb defense and nasty ass counters rather than footwork and movement. Certainly no other mexican fights like that.
      Actually, now that you mentioned it... ​​​​​​

        Jamez Toney wasn’t fleet footed but still slique and black

          Bruvvas don’t really bob and weave much. It’s very much a mexican style. If he was constantly keeping distance, stutter stepping back, sure, maybe even shoulder rolling ala Mayweather, Toney, Benton, sure.

            james toney could move his feet if he needed to. He just typically didn’t need to. Canelo is clearly a worse fighter versus mobile boxers because he does not effectively move his feet ever. And again, what do you gain from these misspellings? I’m black and this is offensive. It’s like you come onto a board to discuss a sport and mock the culture that has dominated every other, yet think your jargon changes that fact? Do you think that your using these terms makes you superior? Because you can laugh at someone, in an arena where you are clearly inferior?
