Floyd just pounded away on him & blocked most of Canelo's shots. It's not Floyd's fault that Canelo didn't know what to do in the fight.
    Floyd sucks. Boring fighter. What more can one say!

      Because of your inability to look at any thing concerning Floyd objectively, your opinion means less than nothing. What more can one say!

        Floyd is a tragic example of just being too good , its tragic for fans to not be able to appreciate what it takes to be this good .
        i know man floyd is tooo good, hell he dint even have to fight the best, he just picked his own opponents. he so good he even retired when things were boiling.

            Canelo never been knocked out and a bigger man

            Guerrero never been knocked out

            Cotto got stopped twice but the way Floyd fights is not really the way to stop Cotto

            Ortiz got stopped by Floyd taking advantage of a glaring mistake

            Mosley never got stopped

            JMM never got stopped

            Hatton he knocked him out

            Oscar not an easy guy to knock out when in decent condition

            Baldomir not an easy guy to knock out

            Judah probably was on his way to getting stopped when the bullshit occured

            Really how many of those dudes are just easy marks to stop, with the exception of Judah he stopped the ones he should have really.
            Floyd could have stopped Baldo. He had him cut within 2 or 3 rounds. But the way he just started running and jabbing. I think that is the first time in Floyd's career where he jabbed and ran like that. He normally counterpunches and capitalizes on mistakes. Against Baldo, the way he went from dominating to jabbing, makes me think he had a hand injury. He had to, just based on how his gameplan changed in a split second. He jabbed Oscar as well in the same way, but Oscar was much bigger and Floyd was just jumping to that class.

              Pretty sure he hurt his hand in the Baldomir fight, he hit him with everything but the kitchen sink through the first 6 7 rounds then he hurt his hand and came to the conclusion I have this won why press further I am probably not going to stop him anyway.

              Baldomir is a tough dude though, so I think Floyd stopping Baldomir was pretty dicey under the best of conditions for Floyd.

              And yea the second half of the Baldomir fight and the Oscar fights are two of the few where Floyd was really evasive with his legs.

                He is a terrific counrt mover and puncher with good defensive skills because he doesn't punch in combination anymore in fear of getting hurt! He throws one or two shots then bails out weither theres punches being returned or not. He fights opponents who fight just like he does except his skill level is far above theirs! He makes sure that he avoids anyone who brings a high work rate to the ring (Pacman) thats not to say he can't win against but he avoids the best challengers because he's learned that smart business is better for him than real opposition. P)lus he's dooped his fans into thinking he's a complete action fighter when the facts are he's NOT! bottle fed his fans very nicely! Ray.
                but the shoulder roll and quick reflexes doe

                  You know what? Floyd stunk that fight up. It really was boring. He made zero effort to press the action. He could have ko'd Nelo if he wanted to but he just playd safety first. I'm not buting another Floyd fight unless he moves up to middleweight or fights manny.

                    A lot of people like fighting not boxing, they are just like Rios when he said Alvarado ran from him because he blocked.
