    It was incredibly boring because floyd has a effeminate style. That means he fights like a woman

    And it wasn't a clinic. Canelo won undisputably at least 4 rounds.

    A clinic is when you dominate your opponent by seriously hurting him or clearly winning at least 10 of the rounds ala Pacquiao-Rios

        Marquez - WW - KO'd Pac
        Bradley - WW - decisioned Pac
        Marquez - WW - MD
        Mosley - WW - Coming off of loss to Mayweather and draw with Mora

        Man I can go on. There is really no comparison here.

        You know, alphabet soup titles don't mean much nowadays. Most people know who the real champ of the division is. This is just like what larry does. he names all the paper belts may's opponents have collected (according to floyd belts only collect dust)

        thats like calling robert steiglitz the SMW Champion. he is A smw champion. THE SMW champion is andre ward.

          Canelo. Beats Trout. Catchweight of 152
          Guerrero. Fought Berto and Aydin? Mandatory for WBC title
          Cotto. Didn't beat anybody notable at 154. Mayorga? Won the belt from Yuri foreman? Gives Floyd his toughest fight to date.
          Ortiz. Sucker punched in round 4. Beats Berto quits against Maidana
          JMM. Moved up 2 weight classes. Cheated on the scales
          Mosley. Shot vs Floyd and Manny. Nearly KOs Floyd in round 2

            Nah a clinic is when your opponent cant literally do **** Pacquiao overwhelms people but he does not put on "boxing" clinics, he was overwhelming the **** out of certain someone then...



            A clinic is when you see a boxer who by whatever means is hitting the other guy at will and not being touched just dominating through 12.

                  It was a clinic but got boring. Not really Floyd's fault but the tempo was the same throughout. It's the fact that No stamina Canelo didn't change anything.

                  Cotto had a great game plan of using a jab against a shoulder roll and physically bullying Floyd. Canelo doesn't hold and push like that.

                  The best style to beat Floyd would be a WW Andre Ward.

                    Pac put on a clinic against Rios. He overwhelmed him, but boxed his ears off. Pac used movement and angles plenty of times.

                    Pac may be offensive but he can box too. Just like Floyd/Hopkins can be defensive but will slug it out if needed.

                    Murat and Cotto as an example.
