    I thought Canelo looked a little tired the last two rounds or so.
    Looks like you were already correctct 'til you changed your mind.

          They were best friends back in the 90s.

              that was a boring fight. put a bet on the fight to over 9.5 rounds

              so kinda glad alvarez had lapse in the fight like he did against m.hatton not sure if its lapse or a lack of confidence in his conditioning

              because rhodes was there for the taking to force a stoppage earlier in the fight

                U.K. must be sad today losing without trying much inside the ring.

                One thing I like Chavez Jr.'s fight, his fights are always exciting. You watch a Canelo fight - 1). he is fighting an overmatched fighter, 2). he is fighting someone who doesn't stand a chance in the scorecard, and 3). he won't lose to anyone below the Top 10 of his division. At least with Chavez Jr. - 1). he fights fighters who might actually win, 2). his fights are always controversial, and 3). the fights are always even.

                Chavez Jr. fights boxers who stands a chance against him. Canelo fights tomato cans that are overmatched. Chavez Jr. wins over Canelo.

                  I thought Rhodes could make it because Canelo was slowing down.

I took two things away from this fight, Canelo is legit and Brits have completely fabricated records.
                    Dude, he gave him the Wlad treatment, carry a fighter to the 10th 11th and weaken him using the body then go for the KO in the 11th 12th.

                    This is how Haye-Wlad is going to end up going, exact same fight.

                      I personally think he carried him a little.

                      the second the 12th came around Alvarez jumped in and stopped it almost immediately.
