Floyd was a great boxer they all know it, the way he totally schooled JMM and Canelo was boxing art at its finest, his ring IQ was on another level, I was always a fan of JMM he was such well taught technical fighter I never thought anybody could just treat him with total contempt at technical boxing as Floyd did, they never clinched at all the entire fight was a skill fight and JMM was so out of it.
Same with Canelo a fighter of this quality just so far out of it, I dont fly with the TBE bulldust thats just hype but without a doubt the best of this era and one of the very best to ever lace them on.
Floyd does deserve credit for that win over who might end up becoming in the top 5 p4p all time in Canelo but that win according to Floyd's own words has an asterisk because Canelo was clearly weight drained & had said he couldn't make 152 BEFORE he signed the fight & Floyd had already fought at 154,so I think Floyd showed why hes the best pure boxer of modern times but prime vs Prime im pretty sure Canelo would win if it was above 154,but that's just it Mayweather never fought that high so it'd be an asterisk win too. I genuinely do think Floyd knew he was too fast for a version of nelo without all his power & still very green but Mayweather didn't have to fight him & nobody would be able to fault him & yet he willingly did anyways vs a young lion regardless.
