    Canelo looked worse than he did vs Mayweather

    Against Floyd he was dominated a bit more but I think he actually looked much better as a fighter. He actually tried to box much more, threw more punches, jabs, with overall more offensive variety. It shows in the punch stats also. I always laughed at the 'canelo has improved so much' crap, and its been proven to be total crap now. He has actually regressed as a fighter as he turned into a mediocre Tyson wanna be looking for the 1 big punch. lol.

    Bivol actually traded with Canelo. He had Canelo on the retreat more times than not while not even getting hit. it was incredible. Canelo had 2-3 slugs, but Bivol had like 15 clip. It was like a handgun vs a machine gun.

    Floyd didn't throw combos.

      He looked slow and sluggish. Against floyd he had speed, but could not match floyd's speed.
      He was tired from round 4 going forward.

        Yep amazing really.

          Ne!I has improved as a fighter but he was up against a good champion. Nelo never looked like a world beater at 22 year old days against guys not as good as bivol.
          Do you think the nel o v bivol wouldn't destroy the 36 year old Floyd or something?

            Canelo nor Manny would ever beat Floyd. He’s too good for either.

              He absolutely would not destroy Floyd...If in this hypothetical he is the same fighter but at 154? No way, the same flaws he showed against Floyd, he showed vs Bivol. Canelo just isn't on Floyd's level and there is a terrible styles match up for him.

              I agree with the OP though. Canelo definitely looked better vs Floyd. Against Bivol, he loaded up on every single shot and was not active at all and gassed out after four rounds. Too comfortable now while he was hungrier when he was 23 years old trying to make his imprint in the game.

                Everyone is a C-level fighter...Jesus Christ, did Canelo fight any elite fighters beside Mayweather & Bivol?

                    Vegan Canelo has never won a fight. Just wait until Mexican beef Canelo whips Bivol in the rematch. Diet is very important. Fury does not go to war without uncastrated wild boar, and Popeye does not without spinach. Canelo was not right because of the vegan crap he was eating. Weak as a kitten. Nash out.
