    I can't think of any other JMM fights where he got completely shut down like that. He seems to have been competitive in all his other losses.

    While Canelo doesn’t have another official Loss on his record

    The same could be said of Saul

    No recent fighter would beat JMM manny and Alvarez as comfortably as Floyd did. Their combined effort led to 2 to 5 rounds won out of 36 vs Floyd

        Did size really play a factor in that fight? It wasn't like Floyd was leaning on JMM or shoving him around the ring.

        You also can't say that JMM hit him but couldn't seem to hurt him...he could barely even land anything.

          Everybody knows Floyd weighed 165lbs that night. That's why HBO didn't show the weights. Not a fair fight.

            Again, if you feel that way...can you explain how weight played a factor?

            Was JMM hitting him a lot but not having any effect? Did Floyd force JMM to carry his weight or did he use his size advantage to manhandle JMM?

              Yeah, the same way Spence was just out boxing Mikey right and actually not using his size?

              Which is even worse, it was a catchweight that Floyd did not honor because "natural 140 lbs" Mayweather couldnt make the weight limit of 144 and had to opt not 145, 146 but on full 147. But heu, Floyd is truly a lightweight though.

                If Floyd would've come in at the same weight as JMM on fight night, like Pacquiao did, JMM would've flattened Mayweather just like he did to Pacquiao.

                Being heavier helps take punches.

                JMM caught Mayweather with a few punches that would have had any 147 pounder shaking on the floor and hospitalized. Instead the punches just slightly caught the giant Floyd's attention and had him act just a little bit more aware.

                I bet you put that Floyd in vs the 160 pound version of Armstrong, some one his own size, Armstrong would've "strong-armed him" and bulldozed the little fraud in like 6 rounds.

                  JMM could barely lay a glove on him that night, bro.

                  If anything Floyd seemed like the lighter weight fighter with how fast he was. He made Marquez look heavy, slow, and plodding.

                    Funny how JMM says he was the best he ever fought, never ever wanted a rematch, nobody ever whipped him like this thats why he said Floyd is the best, nobody was drained in this fight and the entire fight was at range, actually JMM was 150 on fight night the very same weight he was KOing Manny.

                    There wasnt a clinch in the fight the reff could have sat beside the judges, if you idiots only knew what you were talking about.
