    If mayweather was too young when he fought canelo, does that mean Shane Mosley was too old and perhaps he shouldn't consider that a win?

      Yes it would be a tougher fight for Floyd obviously, but if Canelo was a few years pre-prime Floyd was a few years past prime when they fought. It would be kinda interesting to watch now, but it's time for Floyd to go to be honest. He won the first fight so easily it's kinda hard to sell a rematch as well. If it was close, then yeah I could see it being an option, but now he's at 160, just can't see it happening.

      For the record if it did, Floyd still wins a close decision.

        If Canelo fought Mayweather again
        He would then end up with two thorns

        Too stationary to ever compete with Mayweather
        Dudes feet are cement

          Canelo did not say that Floyd did not win. He is simply saying that he lost in part because he lacked experience at that level and that he won in the sense that the fight taught him how to improve. Failure is a defeat only if you don't learn from it. You can't get better if you don't fail. Every successful person has failed before achieving success.

            Floyd was 36 and Canelo had like 45 fights. Canelo has fought 7 times since the Floyd fight. Funny how Dougie Fisher says Canelo was a young green fighter against Floyd but then says he is the more experienced fighter of 52 fights when it comes to GGG. If those 7 fights were against top quality opposition, it would be more believable. His only top fighter was Lara and he struggled and many thought he lost.

                  If Mayweather fight his fight, he'll win again against Canelo.

                    He was 165lbs in the ring, against a guy who was 150lbs, a guy who couldn't even make the 152lbs catchweight.

                    He was in there against a much smalller, feather fisted, 36 year old man and still got speed blitzed, outboxed, and walked down.

                      I posted about this inevitable fight earlier in the week.
                      Also remember, I said, why wait til next may, when they could do it this December.
                      3 million PPVs at $100, plus a $40 million gate? Which idiot says no to that?
