    No he just basically won a shutout to the best possible opponent out there. I only gave Canelo the 2nd and even that was a close round. The fact is even at almost 37 floyd is just miles in front of anyone out there, so expect 4 more very 1 sided fights from the best boxer ever. I just wish floyd was a little more aggressive tonight I think he could of stopped him tonight.

    Floyd could have pressed more but its always boxing safe first.

    Floyd was hitting him at will, and could've taken him out any time he wanted to.
    But yeah..... he's ultra-conservative, and will not take any unnecessary risks.

    Very good performance, but there were a few slips. He got cracked several good ones to head and body.
    Tomorrow, he'll know he was in a fight.

    Do you think Floyd could of knocked him out? To me it looked like he was in cruise control for most of the fight and happy to win a comfortable points victory

    I think a Mosely ten years younger and a De La-Hoya 10 years younger and 5 pounds lighter were the only people CAPABLE of at least winning a close MD against Floyd.

    The only fighter that came close to beating Floyd was Castillo. Which was YEARS ago.

    The second fighter to put up a good scrap was Cotto. If Cotto came into the fight on a high he could have swallowed Floyd up whole- I saw that fight, and it was the only fight I ever saw Floyd scruffed up and battling to stay in the fight.

    I would pay to see a Mayweather vs. Cotto 2.

    That being said, FIGHT MANNY PACQUIOA.... lololol.... get Arum out of the way, make the fight. Styles makes fights. And, since everyone feels he is beatable for Floyd, then take the ONLY big money fight left out of the entire division...

    Floyd vs. Manny still makes sense. Let's hope Arum dies or has a debilitating illness for it to happen!!
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    No same safety first rely on speed and win performance.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I think it was a return to form from Mayweather. Seeing him slip and shoulder roll away from Canelo's punches really reminded me of a few years back when Mayweather was in his absolute prime.

    It was a master class in boxing. Most of Canelo's punches that "landed" were caught by Mayweather's gloves or rolled away from. He really is amazing when he's on form.

    Nope! Floyd looked as good as ever. What else is there to say? except there may be two Hopkins.

    He seemed a little off to me but it might have been the surprise at Alvarez trying to out box him.
