Sorry to disappoint you but I didn't even want to see that fight because I knew that Canelo was NOT ready for that step up yet. Too inexperienced, too many issues to fix. The CW was not the reason he lost but it didn't make things any easier for Canelo. Imagine, Floyd was trying to take Canelo's sole advantage. Floyd's team admitted all that was said so STOP BEING BIASED!!!
Just go check out the ALL ACCESS clips of Floyd eating and Canelo eating. Canelo had to train hard for the toughest fight of his career but had to refrain from eating to the point that he said that that was the hardest part of the training camp. Those are Canelo's words not mine!

One of the few who saw that fight with clarity and fairness was the judge who called it a draw. Of course that judge was blasted.
I was perplexed when after the fight, I hear the populace crowing that Floyd has once again dominated, which I don't think happened, at all. Mayweather created an illusion of fighting by throwing punches which went close, and mostly hit gloves, slightly missed or landed without authority. He is difficult to pin down.
I think when a fighter has a reputation of greatness prefight, Like Mayweather, commentators and observers embellish what he is doing and I saw a lot of that in the commentating of the fight and the post fight analysis.
Canelo didn't fight poorly. He landed the straight jab, which was harder than Floyd's jab. He landed the right cross. He landed harder body punches than Floyd, but post fight punch stats say Floyd landed 60 power punches to Canelo's 48. That is pure fiction. Floyd maybe landed 10 power punches and he gets a lot of credit for landing punches that are touching gloves.
Floyd is like the Will O' the Wisp. Hard to catch. I don't think that fight discredits Canelo. But I do want him to fight Lara or Martinez or even GGG. Those guys won't be as hard to catch up to and then we will see where he is.

I am a boxing fan and I feel I have been burned more than once buying the Mayweather PPV, because the fights turned out far less exciting than they were hyped up to be.
I KNOW Pacquiao and Clottey will both come to fight. That fight will definitely be action packed. I only hope Mayweather will come to fight, but I expect him to run and protect himself alot which does not make for an entertaining fight.Originally posted by NEELZ View PostPacquiao would dominate Mayweather. It would be like what he did to Clottey because Mayweather is a very cautious fighter who would be first concerned about getting hit. Mayweather's fans have him so overrated it is a amusing. Mayweather would run.
It's a fight and *****s are gloating because Pacquiaio took some shots, even though he dominated the fight. Clottey held up his guard all night, and no way was he going to get KOed.
Let's wait for the Mosley fight if Mayweather still shows up. Mayweather will not dominate Mosley anyway nearly as convincing. I think he will lose.

Canelo lost so now the CW was a problem. I bet you that if he had won then they would had been no excuses and there is no complaining when Canelo got all that money in the bank either.
Any fighter that agrees to the c/w and signs the contract has no excuses
