You all realize Canelo took it easy on Chavez Jr and Smith right?

Canelo took it easy on all of those guys.
Canelo is a very good fighter but on closer inspection those opponents aren’t all that.
-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. – Weight drained Fonfara leftover. Canelo couldn’t stop or drop him
– Liam Smith – Untested, unproven. Easy win was expected
– Amir Khan – Knocked out in a round at lightweight with 2 more losses going into Canelo fight. Khan was not a middleweight and hasn’t fought since
– James Kirkland – Knocked out by Ishida in a round. Without Anne Wolfe training him he was not as sharp
– Erislandy Lara – Lara won this fight convincingly but wasn’t awarded the decision
– Alfredo Angulo – Washed up Lara/Kirkland leftover
– Floyd Mayweather Jr. – Easy win for Floyd
– Austin Trout – Debatable decision & Lara beat Trout more convincingly than Canelo
– Josesito Lopez – Far too small to be a threat. Even Berto stopped him
– Shane Mosley – Washed up coming off 7 losses. Canelo couldn’t stop or drop him
– Kermit Cintron – Past his best and wasn’t that great in his prime
– Alfonso Gomez – Contender series…..say no more
– Ryan Rhodes – When Jason Matthews knocked him out in two rounds a decade earlier he looked done then. He still took canelo late and wasn’t dropped
– Matthew Hatton – Hatton shouldn’t have lasted 12 rounds. He was the poorer of the two brothers and Ricky wasn’t that great himself

I'm being very sarcastic in play towards the TS............but Thank You for making my point.
Good Job on that list and breaking it down fighter by fighter.
You forgot the analysis of those killers Baldomir and Jose Cotto though, LolLast edited by True That; 09-07-2017, 12:07 PM.
