Why is everyone so high on Canelo vs Mayweather?

[$Bullsfam$]

So now, Canelo "barely" beat Trout? He exposed a fighter that beat Cotto. Floyd's best win in years.

Exposed? lmao If anything the judges got exposed, no way that fight was a landslide. If anything Canelo's workrate & cardio was exposed. I give Canelo alot of credit for this win as I had him winning by a round but hardly an exposure.

well canelo beat the guy that beat the guy that gave floyd his toughest fight since de la hoya ...

well canelo beat the guy that beat the guy that gave floyd his toughest fight since de la hoya ...

Considering that Floyd beat both Oscar and Cotto by 8 rounds or more? I'm just saying...

[Bullrider]

LOL. Guerrero earned his shot by beating Berto.

Canelo is an easy fight yet Floyd won't fight him. He went on a long holiday again, aware that Alvarez is the only one GBP was trying to negotiate, and waited for the Berto/Guerrero winner instead.

So effing obvious he was avoiding Canelo.

Go watch the fight again like I did. It wasn't a landslide like the one judge had it, but Canelo clearly won.

Trout got exposed in that fight. The guy was jab spamming, and couldn't hit Canelo for nothing. Canelo also showed great upper body movement, and boxing skills. Ok, so he didn't have a high workrate, and he got tired after getting straight punches to his body all night by Trout. Oh no, he got exposed!!!

Things like not being able to throw a million punches, and getting tired happens when you're not facing an opponent that's tailor made for you.

They won't be after the fight is over.

Same old story.

The funniest part is this time last year the fight was considered a joke and the cherry pick of all cherry picks.

[Vasyl’s dad]

What has me dying laughing is everybody calls Floyd a cherrypicker for fighting Guerrero who earned his fight becoming a top WW.

Yet if Floyd would have fought Canelo and won it would have been a cherry pick anyway because afterwards "Canelo never beat a top 5 opponent." But atleast since Floyd fought Guerrero, Canelo actually got to fight Trout and gain alot more respect. Sure he didn't stomp Trout, and the judges helped, but he still gave Trout hell and earned respect. But his nuthuggers are ridiculous.

If your stance is "Floyd fought the top fighter", why is OK in your eyes that Floyd never fought Margarito, Williams or Cotto when they were the top fighters at 147?

hear that?....thats the sound of fresh new bandwagon wheels these people are hopping on. forget the fact that canelo said himself that floyd wanted the fight last year and him and his team weren't ready, forget the fact that guerrero earned his way to the fight and was floyds mandatory. forget the fact that canelo only beat one good damn fighter. To them its a glimmer of hope that they've been seeking since pac when nite nite ko6.........so let em have it

Ya Canelo beat Trout, but barley.... to me i thought it was an extremely close fight and wouldn't have been surprised to see trout with the decision at the end. And this was the only decent win he has ever had, besides trout his resume is complete garbage. Canelo throws powerful and nice combos, but half the time he takes the round off, and vs trout he threw like 30 punches per round. Now with mayweather back with SR and fighting more defensive, I don't see a very action filled fight. And the only threat canelo poses to floyd is size.

I would way rather see floyd fight martinez, pacquiao or the winner of the 140 lb tournament. State your opinions and comments please.

Because Canelo has speed, skill and strength. And he's a champion.

Everyone knew Guerrero was going to lose, The only selling point is will Floyd get old over night.

Canelo has stomped everyone, Trout is a huge man for 154, Canelo got tired. Canelo didn't "barely win" only the shotime commentators think that, Canelo won a hefty decision, look at the cards, he was the only one landing anything meaningful, Trout landed pretty much nothing besides his jab.

Canelo vs Floyd is a good fight because Canelo is strong enough to pressure floyd and fast enough to hit him.
