Floyd jr seen a big flaw on you!

No doubt about it. Nothing teaches humility like humiliation.

But... can someone fix this article? Canelo is not a Jr. Welterweight -.-

Canelo's chin isn't gonna help him

Was a no lose situation for Canelo. Had he won he was the cash cow and next Oscar De La Hoya crossover star.
He lost, but he took no punishment and raised his profile and his name recognition. If he keeps winning over time people will look back on that loss and chalk up his bad performance as inexperience.
He beats Cotto and he owns Cinco de Mayo weekend for the foreseable future and the September dates as well.

It was a one sided loss. There is no positive spin you can put on that.

cotto is screwed if he thinks he is going to fight the 19yo version of canelo..

canelo no rematch because you stunk the place up cotto going to beat you and you will have to start from scratch again

Green k for Canelo. He learned. Floyd out classed him, and hopefully he watches his loss to Floyd more than his wins over others. You learn more from your losses than you do from your wins. Surround yourself with critics who want you to improve, and not sycophants who kiss axx.

Good for Canelo. He learned in defeat, and no excuses, hand pain, tight socks, shoulder pain, dehydration, etc.

It hasnt hurt his career, because it was a loss to the p4p number 1. And he got his biggest payday to do it along with all coverage from selling 2 million ppv's. Of course there is a positive.

If Williams vs Canelo would have happened I'm sure the Floyd fight would have never happened. Cannel was to Green and lack the stamina to keep up with Paul Williams

I'm inclined to agree. I think Williams had everything Trout and Lara have except he could also crack chins.

Sad it never worked out but also glad P Williams is doing good in life and recovery.
