    Not having that bulk was the difference.

      My guess is he had a lot more time to prepare for this fight during his suspension. Cutting down weight gradually and losing some of that muscle mass that was likely slowing him down.

        I'll always remain su****ious for Canelo getting busted for PEDs, but you're reaching. He got busted in Feb, but we can assume he's been clean for almost 7 months now. He came in visibly lighter and in great shape.

          I knew there would be someone with this mindset. The problem is this speculation doesn't just apply to Canelo alone. I could just as easily assume the playing field is even because all the top fighters could be getting away with it just like Lance Armstrong did.

          Answer this to yourself. What exactly would Alvarez need to do to prove he is clean? I think there are some people out there who would've only accepted Canelo was clean if he would've gotten knocked out. Anything else would still mean he was cheating.

            He cut back in weight/muscle mass, plus GGG didn't really pressure in the rematch so it played into Canelo's hand.

              Your stamina does tend to be better when your opponent doesn't land any body shots.

                i'm reaching for thinking a proven drug cheat is cheating?

                  Is that why he gassed in the first fight?

                    Don't forget fernando vargas. Peds don't mean stamina, if anything they've shown to take away stamina.
                    GET WITH THE TIMES MAN!!!!!

                    That's old sh/t.
                    New sh/t is next level

                    Besides have you never heard of Blood Doping?
