I watched the same fight you did. I bet even you would agree that even in the rounds you claim were uneventful, any significant punch landed in those rounds were by Mayweather. Like I said, people will say whatever they want to make themselves feel better about this fight. However, the only people even entertaining the thought of a less than dominating performance are the ones that don't like Mayweather. Seems like you're one of them.

I wouldnt say I'm a huge fan of Floyd but I acknowledge and respect his skills and ring IQ. He won. That's obvious. What I'm saying is, upon watching the replay tonight I didnt see the dominance that certain people spoke of. Floyd was able to touch Canelo more than Canelo was able to touch him. That's what it boils down to. Floyd never hurt him or had Canelo in any trouble. It was more like Floyd was playing a game of "tag you're it" and Floyd was able to tag Canelo more times than Canelo was able to tag Floyd although Canelo did have some moments where he landed a few good shots on Floyd and vice versa.

iirc TS had Rigo-Donaire scored as a draw immediately after the fight, I wouldn't put much into his scoring.

I think Canelo should have used a different plan after the first few rounds. He isn't technical enough to compete w/ may w/ that game plan.

canelo was getting jabbed to death for the first 4 rounds...........jabs were snapping his head back. (canelo would land a glancing blow or 2 at best if that at all) the rounds weren't competitive for the first 5 rounds. they were fought as a chest match & you could clearly see mayweather doing a bit more in each of those rounds to take them.

i have no clue what you were watching...........

This was the story of the fight. Floyd did a bit more in many of the rounds to win them. I wouldnt necessarily call that a whitewash.

You're lying! I had Rigo clearly winning that fight!. Why make stuff up?

Gave Floyd every round! I felt there may of been 2 you could maybe give to Canelo out of sympathy.

Here, learn something. Just because someones face isn't busted doesn't mean they were not dominated. Mayweather vs Canelo was a classic boxing schooling in which Mayweather dominated Canelo. Canelo tried to play the boxing game with Mayweather and got dominated. It just is what it is.

He is watching the same fight but he is a hater at heart so he uses the right side of the brain , it alters the perspective interpreting what he sees, if your not aware that's its happening its very hard to be objective because haters don't see the same picture .

Brain imaging has revealed that positive and negative emotions are polarized on opposite sides of the prefrontal cortex. The right side governs a physiological loop that produces negative, inhibiting feelings, while the left commands a loop for positive, outward-reaching emotions. Research now suggests that a person’s natural temperament—optimistic, pessimistic, extroverted, or introverted—may depend on which side of the prefrontal cortex is more active. In one study of 10-month-old infants who were briefly separated from their mothers, researchers found that babies who cried had a dominant right prefrontal cortex, and that those who calmly explored the area where they had been abandoned had a more active left cortex.

Well a bit more added to a lot more to me is dominating. Call it what you want. Agree to disagree... Let's leave it at that.
