No changing narratives here and I do my best to be objective. With that in mind, here are the facts and please correct me if I’m wrong:
Canelo went the distance with Hatton’s brother in 2011, however he fought Floyd in late 2013. So it was two years between the Matthew Hatton and Floyd Mayweather fights.
In those two years Canelo went from a beltholder who won a vacant belt at 21 to a unified titlist at 23. That was two years, not one. Alvarez beat a prime Austin Trout to unity titles at 154 prior to facing Floyd.
Speaking of narratives, Floyd critics claim that Canelo was green going into the Mayweather fight just because he wasn’t at his peak yet. But take a look at the Ring magazine ratings for 2012 at 154. Floyd and Canelo were #1 and #2.
Now for the question of who was closer to their absolute best. Mayweather’s absolute peak was probably 2001-2005 to be honest and let’s say Canelo’s peak is 2018 to right now.
So Floyd was still near prime level yet 8 years removed from his 130-140 days. Canelo was moving toward his prime yet 5 years away.
The only scenario I see changing with time is Floyd critics/Canelo supporters claiming that Floyd was 28 while Alvarez was making his pro debut at 15 lol.
And when comparing who was closer to theyre absolute best you’re leaving out one very important detail, experience!!!!! Floyd had loads of it for that fight While Canelo had non at that level. Zero!!! That was his first big fight.
Its really not difficult to see Floyd was 100% closer to his best than Canelo was that shouldn’t even be a debate nor should it take away much from Floyd he was smart to do that fight then rather then later that’s what Floyd was best at TIMING!!!!
And this is coming from a Floyd fan I grew watching Floyd from going pro in 96 till the end and I believe he doesn’t get enough credit for being a genuinely good guy when you pay for the funeral of one of you’re opponent you know you’re a good dude all the good he does flies under the radar imo.Last edited by TreyShaw; 11-08-2021, 08:18 PM.

Yea Canelo won titles inbetween what was around 1 1/2 from Hatton to Floyd fight I THINK. Regardless Canelo was struggling with guys at that point not just Little Hatton. One because he was struggling to make the weight and two like already mentioned was learning on the job, heck his first 35 fights or so were before the age of 20 that tell you how green Nelo still was around that Floyd fight. And yes I agree he won some good fights during that time because the guy already showed signs of being legit but still far from what he is today in his prime.
And when comparing who was closer to theyre absolute best you’re leaving out one very important detail, experience!!!!! Floyd had loads of it for that fight While Canelo had non at that level. Zero!!! That was his first big fight.

And can we also acknowledge that Canelo unified against a prime Austin Trout right before facing Mayweather? I know Trout isn’t Mayweather but imagine if Canelo had said:
“I know I just unified titles but I’m still learning on the job and I wanna wait until Floyd is 40 before we fight so I can be at my absolute peak”
That would have been a bad look, and yes Floyd had experience but Father Time is undefeated.Last edited by whollisboxing; 11-09-2021, 08:44 PM.
