Comments Thread For: Fighting Words — Canelo’s Can’t-Lose Scenario Vs. Floyd

[dc3383]

Canelo stood his ground. No signing on Sept, no undercard participation. He didn't flinch. He and his team knew the road to the big fight will eventually point in his direction. The catchweight indicates concern.

He also said 154 or no fight he flinched

It is hard to praise someone for a fight, when you already know the outcome before the fight happens.

Well then as a boxing fan you have to praise him another way right. Praise him (Floyd Jr) for simply being so damn good.

Good article, but canelo isnt that much bigger than floyd. Actually on paper floyd is bigger, both share same height but floyds got the longer reach...

What the hell are you talking about. Go check out there walk around weight.

I truly believe Canelo will catch Floyd with a straight right or left that's gonna hurt him. And unlike how shane hurt floyd slightly but went for the kill and gassed in the 2nd round, I see Canelo hurting Floyd at one time but being patient and waiting to box the full 12 rounds. I then see Canelo catching floyd with another shot in the later rounds, hurting him, and finishing him. Whether this happens or not, will be answered on Sept 14th. No doubt this fight is intriguing which makes it a MEGA FIGHT. And I believe in Canelo because I've watched his last 7 fights and each fight he's shown me improvement in each of them. Some bring up the Gomez fight and that Canelo got hit and is vulnerable, but let not forget, Canelo demonstrated a new style (Floyd shoulder roll, which Canelo verbally stated that he admired Floyds style and thought it was the best out there. Another sign that Canelo is truly a student of the game) that night and he was practicing with it. To me it wasn't a good style for Canelo but Canelo was still effective.

Sounds like you have already watched this fight in your dreams.

The bottom line is you have to outbox Floyd Jr. I dont care how strong Canelo is or how fast Canelo can throw his fist. You have to OUTBOX Floyd Jr to beat him and Canelo cannot outbox or out think Jr.

Still cant wait. Wanna see De La Hoyas debut also.

On the real, Canelo winning would be a miracle. The real question is what is he gonna do after siphens off some of Mayweather's recognition and Superstar status. Where's the big fight gonna be for him and will he take them. He's only fought one full sized junior middle weight. How is he gonna fair against Angulo or Kirkland. Will he fight Golovkin or Ward one day? Chavez Jr.? Sergio (if he can still walk)?

Well I'll say Canelo stands a better chance than The Ghost, but he will have to up his work rate if he wants to not loose by UD, and he could get a KO, but if he doesn't what then? . . . If he fights like how I've usually seen him fight, (reserving energy, flat footed) He's He's gonna allow Mayweather to load off on him, and he's got a lot of body on show.

Mr. M4RK, what you've just posted is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

172 is smaller than 151?

Lol @ ( may god have mercy on your soul)
