Was Canelo really a "kid" when he faced Floyd?

[Lomadeaux]

You really think in Canelo’s team’s objective to preserve his professional record that this experience is equal to the risks an amateur fighter takes? Canelo’s resume is littered with slow, small, lethargic dead men made to order. Mayweather had gone through the trials of facing other sharp, fast, hungry etc fighters.

maybe if Canelo was fighting a bum like Genaro Hernandez(like he was for the bum Trout). Sure, enough experience for that. Not a top 2 p4p fighter.

Lol did you call Genero Hernandez a bum?

Time is precious and it's a waste to spend it in the amateurs

After maybe 50 fights, get that ass up to the pros and make that money

Guadalajara is known for fine hoes..

what hope did he have? all record of the fight should be scrubbed

Alvarez became a star anyways without taking the torch from Floyd

That is what I was getting when I said he did things the hard way.

[BendOver]

No he would have beat the likes of Cotto at the time, he just wasn't prime. But if he wasn't such a good learner that could have been his plateau.

Canelo one of the few guys in the sport who continue to get better every fight.

I think the competition has going down.

Pro hoes are the best hoes. Don't want some rookie fumbling around.

[FinitoxDinamita]

He wasn’t as refined but to say that he was green or a kid is downright silly and wack ass excuse.

Floyd owns him period.

[ippo]

In a few years he will have been 18 when he fought Floyd. He was 23, and no boxer in history previously has been called inexperienced with 42 pro fights. Floyd was a level above even at 36. I think he still beats his ass today.

40+ year old mayweather gets koed and you know it. 22 or 23 years fighting one of the best ever, he wasn't at his peak yet.

[Sp0rty Cr@ig]

41 wins . Against who exactly? canelo was nothing his prime fighting at a lower weight than usual. Against maybe the best ever. Canelo has progressed so much since then tho. Remember most of US had GGG knocking him out brutally?

I often wonder, more like always wonder why these threads are neccesary?
when Nel o fought the old ssm, and trout of this world they were considered very good wins for nelo at time. Nowadays the standards are higher, where bjs, c alum smith, and plant wins are underplayed. Nel o needs to fight beterbiev and usyk nowadays.
he was green kid with Cw.
