Some fans downplay Foreman’s timing against Moorer, but most would agree Big George seen it all and seized the moment to hit Moorer where it counted as the young buck too was getting tired. Canelo’s current defense is based on his experience just like post Floyd became a master defensemen. Floyd was too fast for Canelo back then. That bit of calibration matters. When Floyd would get hit by Canelo even at 152 he was rattled off his feet. It means at 154-155 Canelo could focus more on just countering when Floyd striked, take one to give one, instead of trying to box. However that would only make sense in a rematch if Floyd wanted Canelo’s Middleweight title starting at 155.
    Yeah those 3 pounds would of made all the difference.

    Floyd beat Canelo, unlucky. Sometimes fighters lose.

    One thing I like about Canelo is hes had a ton of fights.

    Alot of these new fighters are so inactive, they fight like once in a blue moon and gripe about money all the time. even fighters are bitchmade nowadays.

          He inky became prime after Floyd whooped him and he learned a lot frok the whooping lol. The catch weigjt in this fight doesn't sit right with me of all the catch weight fights of this era.

          Manny was catchweight King due to coming up from a tiny tiny weight. What was Floyds excuse for looking for catchweights? He fought Cotto and Oscar at full 154 before anyway. No excuse to take Canelo down in weight other than he knew that boiling that big boy down another few pounds would give Floyd a big advantage.

          Very unlikely it would have made a difference but still was ****ed up
