Canelo's "Improvements"

Canelo actually looks more comfortable walking down bigger, harder-punching men than he did smaller fighters. I think Canelo has adjusted his style brilliantly for men who have bigger physical dimensions than he does.Comment

- -U mad cuz he not a Charlene triplet...Boohoohoo...People talk about how much Canelo's "improved" since the Mayweather and Lara fights. About how "slick" he is, how great his defense is, how he now knows how to cut off the ring. I think it's bull****. He has carefully handpicked his opponents by intentionally fighting guys who can punch hard, which doesn't phase him the way guys who can move do, like Lara and Floyd. GGG, Kovalev, Smith, and even Jacobs, are slow and plodding compared to Floyd and Lara. These guys are tailor made to make Canelo look fast and slick. I don't believe the smoke and mirrors.
For you Canelo fans, I will admit this - Billy Hoe, who I can't stand, is better at fighting off the back foot and moves around the ring better than other recent Canelo opponents. Not as good as Floyd and Lara, but better than all those other guys.
So this will be a good test to see if he's improved. Can't just win though, has to be a dominating performance. Gotta show that he's really learned how to cut off the ring.
If Canelo dominates this fight I will admit that he's improved. A close decision won't work, BJS isn't as good a fighter as Lara, so he's gotta dominate.Comment

I'm not too sure about that tbh. Charlo looks relatively straight up and down compared to Andrade.
I think Billy is more classically skilled than Andrade but not as athletic. I've followed him from his pro debut and he doesn't quite look the same at 168 to me.Comment

I don't think he has improved, his competition has got worse.
I don't see any improvements technically, and physically? He has always been a one paced fighter, he does not have many gears.Comment

Yeah I kinda agree, I think your right with the technical and opponents but I feel he is mentally more of a killer now more seasoned and powerful.Comment

LDBC kids can’t handle that Canelo is the most complete fighter in the game. They don’t like defacto since Floyd is gone. He is able to slip combo offenses and if a fan says that’s “slick” the LDBC kids feel offended.Comment

You don’t know what gears are. Lol. Have you ever sparred? Canelo is a king of sparring. If you knew, the limited visibility is a challenge for anyone. You think Canelo is guessing “gears” when slipping and dodging multiple offensive assaults? That’s years of experience studying opponent body movement. Why is this even debatable. “Not have many gears” lol. Yet his accurate compu box, style, defense puts people in awe. As if Canelo’s upper body movement is just guessing. Canelo haters are among the dumbest in the sport. Spence and Charlos look robotic compared to CaneloComment
