Matchmaking / By Age 23: Floyd vs Canelo resumes

[Citizen Koba]

For comparison:

At age 23:

GGG - fighting little boys in amateurs...still not pro, needed more practice

You really that ignorant about the amateur game or just trolling on dudes? You can say the same thing about Usyk, Loma, Lara, Rigo... hell, Spence didn't turn pro til he was 22 and he doesn't even come from a place where the amateurs were arguably more respected than the pros.

These dudes didn't strive for amateur greatness to somehow prepare themselves for the 'real thing' but absolutely for it's own sake... and honestly you can make a very strong case that medaling at the Olympics or the Worlds is a greater - and certainly more unique - accomplishment than getting your hands on one of the trinkets that the acronym dudes hand out like candy.

Canelo isn’t and will never be in the same class as Mayweather / If you have any doubts re watch their fight

If you really want to compare what they accomplished by age 23 /24 consider the whole scope of it / It’s more
Then just the names

Mayweather fought Genaro he had 1 L and was a current
Strap holder with Multiple Defences

Corralles Was a Undefeated Prime P4P Fighter

Canelo is the anointed Golden Child because of the $ / Exposure he brought he was able to get Known fighters into the ring at a time they were almost completely irrelevant except for their name . Canelos Team have Implemented a strategy of fighting Known fighters on the end of their careers who had almost nothing Left and had
Suffered Multiple Ls in their recent fights and their name represented more then their place in the sport

Moseley-40+ hadnt won in his last 3

Baldomir-40 has lost 3/5 only Ws were against nobodies

Cintron - List 2/3

N’Dou - 39 was 2-2-1 last 5 /2 wins against no hopers

It’s not just the names you fight / It’s more important when you fight them ( Age / Recent Record )

Canelos best names on his Resume are all over 35 (Moseley/Mayweather/Golovkin/ Cotto ) and no where near the fighters they were or near their peak.

That’s why I wouldn’t be suprised if it’s Kovalev in September he checks all the boxes for Canelos team when fighting future HOFers

Over 35
3-3 in his last 6 fights
Has Tapped out / KO in 2 Of those Ls
On the slide / Not the same fighter he was

Name still holds value

[moltres.]

canelo was only 23, asking a 23 year old to lose 2 pounds aint that bad.

not sure how long after he outgrew 154, but the dude was 23.

draining a 36yo kova would be awful, the body works differently with age.

[The Big Dunn]

Dumb Floydtards think that draining you 2 pounds makes no difference , Thats how I know these low IQ boxing people have never box trust me 1 pound can break you happen to me when I was an amateur I fought weight drain and had no legs so my next fight I move up to the next weight class even though i was out weighed by 3 to 4 pounds just couldn't make 112 anymore so I went to 119 even though I fought at about 115 in tournaments

Interesting post. If this is correct then Manny’s wins over morales #1, Margs, odh, and cotto all should be devalued because of the cw or because morales was coming down from 135.

Or is it only fighters that fight Floyd are drained when the fight is at a cw?

Yes but circumstantial facts such as Floyd fought DLH, and Cotto at the full 154... why didn't Floyd dare at the full 154 for Canelo? Remember Dawson had to cut 9lbs the day of the weigh in for Andre Ward at 168? Canelo hadn't fought at Middleweight or above 154 when he fought FLoyd

Canelo people ****ed up and said they willing to meet him at CW someone can post the video for you

This is not the same as Chad Dawson going down a weight class don't be ******

[Thuglife Nelo]

Too bad Andrade fight didn’t happen. Bring Kovalev

WAR CANELO
WAR KRUSHER

Canelo isn’t and will never be in the same class as Mayweather /

Mayweather didn’t fight anyone like Canelo at age 23.

130-154 : 24lbs differential

140-175+?: and that’s all she wrote

You Realize are Oscar got to choose the Weight, Right Mayweather has no say

Cotto got 154 because Mayweather respected him

And Finally Canelo publicly Offered to go to 152 to make the fight and guess what Mayweather took him up on it.


I don’t even get what point you had with your Tim sh.it Response to me

Such a Dumpster Baby

Are You trying to say Canelos Greater because he started his Pro career at 140 as a 15 year old and will fight Kovalev at 175 that he’s somehow greater then Mayweather because he Gained more Weight because started as a 15 year old

Really thats your Argument / Maybe the Dumbest I’ve read in a long Time cong**** man

How about this Argument

Canelo has Needed the Help from Judges Multiple Times to get Ws

Canelos Been Busted For PEDs


When Mayweather fought HOF or Notable Opponets he was almost always the smaller fighter and they were from Roughly the same era , He didn’t have to wait until he was Prime and they were Physically on the decline

When Mayweather / Canelo Fought , Most thought Mayweather made Canelo look like a Amateur and he didn’t to be in the the same ring and most thought Canelo got shut out



And That’s all She Wrote

[Thuglife Nelo]

Lol. What a dweeb. You didn’t even get the point. Read what I wrote 10 more times.

Here’s the context for my post...

Floyd didn’t dare Lineal or his 6 weight division accomplishment in facing Cotto or Canelo TWICE! Floyd could’ve easily said 155 for any of these guys, Cotto and Canelo would taken those fights in a heartbeat.

Truth is Cotto gained more muscle mass after Martinez.

If Cotto or Canelo were “easy” for Floyd, then it’s a no brainer that Floyd would’ve retired a 6 Division Champ and the Lineals with either the Mexican or the Puerto Rican.

For you to say “Floyd did what Oscar...” etc has nothin to do with Cotto or Canelo at 155+

Floyd didn’t dare 1lb with Cotto because Miguel was bigger. Canelo was/is bigger than 152 and refreshed at 155 at the time.

And that’s All she really wrote!
