Comments Thread For: WBC Prez: Mayweather Fight Could Have Ended Canelo's Career

[Scopedog]

He lost to the best fighter in the world, and he didn't lose THAT badly. It's not like he was beaten bloody or knocked out or anything like that, he was just clearly outboxed. If that's considered potentially career-ruining then we wouldn't even have a sport.

Well atleast his fans let it go and didnt go on suicide watch

From grasshopper to Mantis

No one really talks about how much Canelo started boxing like Mayweather after that fight. He will say it himself in 3-5 more years.

Boxing fans still don’t understand that Sulaiman and Goodman setup Canelo with meat contamination. When Canelo was refusing the defacto Mexican belt while NSB writers and others outfits corroborated turmoil between the two, we saw what the WBC-CBP planned to do to discipline stars whom don’t cooperate to satisfy the usual fees (after Khan).

The theory Canelo is a protected fighter is a myth otherwise GBP and affiliates would’ve assured, as well as the WBC, that Canelo’s case would’ve been handled like Francisco Vargas, WAY BEFORE the new exonerations for Ray Vargas and Martinez.

The fat lard always hated that Jose Sulaiman adores Canelo, and he took it even further when Canelo didn’t respect his father’s belt. Guys, the Angulo fight was an exhibition fight yet Mauricio wanted to show his presence for the WBC next to Angulo in the ring entrance. Mauricio always wanted to promote the WBC at all costs. If you’re a Mexican star and you’re refusing the defacto belt in boxing that’s Mexican, of course Mauricio is going to do some shady stuff.

Mauricio knows what he did was wrong. He’s made every attempt to create an illusion of false imprisonment toward Canelo by always pretending to side with him after the Clen case. He setup Nelo.

Take a look outta your window in 5 minutes. You'll see Shergar passing with Elvis as the jockey...

[Canelo and GGG]

Nah ,it was not like Calzaghe vs Lace , Canelo was not brutaly beaten ,he was just out boxed and learned from that fight.

[Ant1979]

I think Canelo realised that night he was nowhere near as good as he thought he was and there was plenty of room for improvement.

To be fair to him he's knuckled down, learned and improved a lot since. He also learned from that fight how he could benefit from the catchweight aspect in negotiations for future bouts. He's certainly not daft.

But I still can't reference that fight without a special mention to CJ Ross's scorecard. Judging that lanslide a draw proved her and boxing's corruption at the highest level, it was genuinely jaw dropping. The worse card I've ever seen...

Floyd don't ruin fighters the article is being overly dramatic. You learn from defeat and if you can't learn from losing to floyd, then Floyd can't be that good as there is nothing to learn from floyd?
Nel o wasn't that good when Floyd beat nelo. Nel o wasn't winning really convincingly even though he never fought anyone that good.

When.nelos career is over he will have surpassed floyd and his name might be mentioned alongside countryman Julio Cesar chavez?

alvarez was undefeated world champion when he was humiliated by 36 yo mayweather and he has never got over it

[Jab jab boom]

Nah, it was a great risk to take. A 23 yr old athlete should always have the advantage over a 36 yr old one. Not to mention, that mayweather wasn't big enough to lay down a career ending beat down. Merely an embarrassing boxing lesson. Then when canelo lost, he, his team and his fans hold onto the excuse that they were too young and it served as a lesson. The belief on their end is that the post version of Canelo would've beaten the version of mayweather that he lost to, but that's laughable.
