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

[TernceBudCharlo]

Not a kid, he just looked skinny because Floyd USADA tested the **** out of him

[Oracle01]

You think he got dominated by Floyd because he lacked 'man strength'? He was too slow and couldn't land a single clean punch on him in 12 rounds.

He had his "man strength" Floyd just wouldn't let him use his PEDs because he demanded the strictest vada testing possible, in Canelo's next fight he looked like a hulking bodybuilder again

Floyd was pass prime

and Alvarez was young

Alvarez issue that night was going up against one the greatest boxers ever

Floyd was even younger 21 when he beat a very good fighter in Genaro Hernandez

so it can be done

did anyone watch the austin trout fight? people keep saying how floyd did this and that to canelo but he looked terrible in that fight as well barely throwing punches and generally being super hesitant. in reality what turned the tide in that fight was the open scoring that had trout down when in reality it should have been at least even. that forced trout to fight unlike himself and be more aggressive and that led to him making mistakes and canelo capitalizing on those mistakes. canelo just wasnt that good back then. we dont know if it was the weight draining, ped's, or simply more experience but the canelo that ggg beat was much better

Dirty ass liar. What happens when you don’t have to fight at a 152lb catchweight Yea bodybuilder next fight….corny ass punk.

Glad your boy is on his way out without a legacy, soon to be forgotten with that weak ass resume of his. About to be 35? Prime years virtually gone. Shameful

Crawford will be waved goodbye, and no one will care.

no excuses

Nothing will change the fact that he was 23.

23 is young any way you slice it. It’s young as hell and no boxer is who he is at that age. It’s just too damn young.

You can’t twist the facts and wish Floyd had taken out a prime Canelo at 31.

I really don’t rate fights like this when one opponent is super young, or catchweight fights.

It’s just not as impressive. I can’t lie and say I’m impressed by Pacs win over Cotto at 145 or his win over Margarito at 150. Or Floyd’s win over Canelo at 152.

Image how everyone would feel if Floyd was 23 and fought a 36 year old Canelo? People wouldn’t want to accept it either.

21 years old.

Lol, we think alike.

[STREET CLEANER]

He was a middleweight drained to 152. End of story.

He created his own weight class of 155, you would want to recheck that.
