    Let's get another thing straight...geez, do we always has to do this? Canelo vs. May

    Okay, Yes. Mayweather outboxed and made Canelo frustrated and beat him quite convincingly.

    However, if you failed to see the actual technical boxing skill that Canelo had in his arsenal that night then yes, you're an idiot.

    Only a fool would say that THAT fight exposed Canelo. When in fact, he showed some tricks up his sleeve that would leave a fan pleased.

    Elaborate.

      He lost every round. He was a step behind and a class below every second of the fight.

          Did you see the way he was standing there, and looking puzzled? It was so underrated.

            He showed he could feint, jab, pot-shot, shoulder roll. He just can't do it all as good as Mayweather. Just because he was a step behind, doesn't mean he wasn't boxing good. It just wasn't good enough for one guy, Mayweather.

              Yes, the idiots are the guys that weren't pleased because Canelo didn't show anything to bother Floyd. They're the idiots....riiiiight.

              What exactly were these 'tricks' that he showed? Even if he did show some 'tricks', what he needed was some basic street style boxing and aggression, not tricks. He showed no adaptability, no dogged determination, no game plan, no plan B at all....he lost the fight very which way, and really didn't show much at all. Not for a young, undefeated champion in his prime years hyped to be the next superstar fighting an ageing, smaller champion.

                Surely this is a troll post?

                "He showed some basic boxing skills, you know, a jab and stuff, but just because none of it worked at all, doesn't mean it didn't impress me"

                  Nah. I'm not trolling. Are you?

                    Maidana's jab was more effective than Alvarez's. How much a jab could Alvarez have shown if it wasn't half as good as Marcos Maidana's?
