People need to stop making excuses for Canelo. Even Canelo and his team said Floyd won convincingly and gave them a boxing lesson. They have only been saying that they have more experience right now.
But people seem to have “selective memory” also. They forget Floyd was 36 years old & 7 months, so he was 5 months away from turning 37 when he fought Canelo. Floyd “historically” compared to other past great fighters that weren’t heavyweights of that same age, was supposed to be at the tail end of his career. Floyd was just an exception to the rule at 36 when he fought Canelo like Bernard Hopkins.
Oscar-35-stopped by Manny
Sugar Ray Leonard-35-lost to Terry Norris
Roberto Duran-35-lost to Robbie Sims
Miguel Cotto-35-lost to Canelo Álvarez
Tommy Hearns-34-lost to Iran Barkley a 2nd time
Pernell Whitaker-35-lost to Trinidad
Felix Trinidad-35-lost to Roy Jones Jr.
Julio Caesar Chavez Sr-35-lost to Oscar
Shane Mosley-36-lost to Miguel Cotto
Manny-37-lost to Floyd
Roy Jones Jr.-35-lost to Antonio Tarver for a 2nd time
Bernard Hopkins-36-stopped Felix Trinidad

I agree with the bold, but the rest is convenient bollocks
Canelo did not " rush into that fight "..... what a convenient one-sided inaccurate viewpoint
that HUGE, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity presented itself..... and Canelo wisely took that opportunity with both hands, before it disappeared
unlike Bullshltkin, who never lifted a finger to make a meaningful fight, even with superstars..... which is why he still has a shlt resume and no career-defining win
and Canelo did not wait for Bullshltkin to get old..... Bullshltkin could have taken that fight whenever he wanted, IF he was willing to be a man of his word
* willing to fight Rosado at 158
* NOT willing to fight Canelo at 158
and Canelo absolutely beat Bullshltkin in the rematch, no question
not only did Canelo beat him, he proved that he is a better fighter
fought a supposed killer in his first real fights at middleweight, and beat the Mexican out of him
my post is far more accurate than yours, which is just a biased one-sided viewpoint
