        Canelo was a greenish, young, flat-footed, has a slow work rate, stamina issues , weight drained and went into the fight thinking that he can outbox Floyd. Besides all that, Canelo was alright.

        BTW - Floyd's team admitted that Canelo had the above issues .... that is why the fight was made .... bonus was the CW at 152.

          Same pathetic performance against Trout and Lara. Notice the pattern? You stand there so that he can set his feet and deliver, all is fine in Canelo land!

              The 22 year old was drained and wasn't even that good to begin with.
              .
              155 Canelo > 152 Canelo

              He still drains himself to get down to 155. Canelo's a true middleweight, he should stop trying to fool everybody by saying he's a 154 fighter and just move up to 160 already.

                Naive gameplan, pathetic corner.

                Canelo with e.g. Angel Garcia in his corner, somebody who'll stick a rocket up his ass when he's not fired up, that guy might stand a chance.

                Canelo with some dimwits telling him half way through the fight he needs to start winning rounds, he stood no chance.

                He needed to back Floyd up and hit him anywhere. Case in point, Mayweather complained his arm was hurting. That's because he got hit there a couple of times. Imagine if Canelo did that a several times a round instead of a couple of times over the course of the fight, maybe he might've been able to start breaking Floyd down a bit and take away some of Floyd's game. Canelo was bigger, younger, stronger. That's what he needed to trade on, and use his technical skill to close distance instead of try to catch Mayweather with a big shot (which seemed to be his gameplan).

                There's fighters that leave it all in the ring. Look at JuanMa vs Salido 2. JuanMa was being picked off by Salido so around round 6 he said to himself, "F it, let's see what this guy is made off." He didn't take a backward step for 3 rounds and went to war with Salido, throwing bombs until he was a spent force. There was a moment in the 8th round where you saw the fear in Salido's eyes, a kind of, "WTF is this dude made of?" That's the attitude Canelo needed to trouble Mayweather.

                He doesn't have it, and he never will. Not until he cuts the sycophants and gets some guys in the corner that care more about winning than sucking up to him.

                  Are we as boxing fans, going to keep on ignoring the obvious cheating that floyd mayweather is doing with his "vampire facials" aka blood doping? The same exact sh^t lance armstrong was doing for him to be able to win all those "toure de france":

                    because this is what floyd does.

                    he either fights fighters before they are prime or after they are prime.

                    FLOYD HAS YET TO FACE A LEGIT HALL OF FAME FIGHTER WHO WAS IN THEIR PRIME.

                    that is a fact.
