    Is Canelo MORE INTELLIGENT than any other Mayweather Opponent?

    How does Canelo ''learn'' from the Floyd loss, but no other Mayweather opponent excelled by ''learning'' as well?

    If Canelo can intuitively play defense like greats or have intelligent counter punching, all learned from Floyd, then how is it that no other ELITE fighters can do it? That doesn't make any sense doe!

    Oh yeah! 152 doe.

    Floyd didn't want Canelo at 154-155, nor Cotto.

      You learn more from a loss than you do a win. What Canelo learned is there are very few fighters fast and accurate enough to take advantage of his flaws over the course of 12 rounds.

      I am sure he and his team learned more from Floyd, Lara, GGG, and Trout fights than he did from easy KO wins over WW's at MW and JMW.

        Ok, so what derailed Lara and Trout from their fights after Canelo?

        These theories make no sense. If we use the FLoyd Nelo logic, then why hasn't Lara or Trout excelled from learning from Canelo? Or did Lara learn from Angulo not how to get dropped again up until Hurd?

          What Floyd moves? I could say Canelo mimics James Toney with rope a dope, defense. what did he still from Floyd? The high guard? lol

            you choose what you want to learn... you expect a fighter like maidana to learn and adapt to floyd's style? it's easier for a guy like canelo to pick up some tricks from floyd since canelo's style suits it better. did canelo learn some tricks from floyd? probably.

            is floyd responsible for canelo's sucucess? fvvvk no! canelo prolly did learn some stuff but canelo was already a great fighter to begin with. its like kobe bryant, pretty much stealing the fade away shot from mj and mastering it for his own success. but that doesnt mean mj is responsible for kobe's accomplishments.

              point is that he wasnt doing any of that prior to fighting floyd.

                    Just because Canelo learned from fights doesn't mean every fighter learns something from every fight. Just because other fighters didn't learn anything, doesn't mean Canelo didn't learn.

                    You are basically just mad that the people interviewed at Floyd's gym says Floyd made him a better fighter. Pathetic dude. Is this really something to be upset about?
