Canelo's elbow/arm punching was a huge part of his gameplan, it just didn't work. I clearly remember Canelo asking the guys he was sparring whether or not the punches on their arms/shoulders hurt, they said yes and it affected them greatly because they couldn't lift their arms.
Rocky Marciano used to do the same exact thing, he'd brutalize his opponents arms, just keep throwing until they went numb, I heard he even broke one of his opponent's arms/elbow.
Canelo fought a really intelligent fight, he did everything in his power to win and it just wasn't enough. Floyd is just on a whole other level, the only guy that can beat him is Ward.
Problem is Floyd" ain't no ****ing sparring partner"!
