I fear the latter part of your statement may be what happens. I am not a Floyd hater, don't particularly like him but have great respect for his ability. Watching Canelo fight Trout made me doubt Canelos ability to do any, or much, damage to Floyd. You would think by the score cards Canelo dominated that fight but that was not the case. Yes, Canelo won but it was much closer than the cards. Canelo definitely fights in spurts. Canelos defense was much improved, he definitely has the power but I don't think he is slick enough to beat Floyd. I guess he is going to have to try to get on the inside and let go with those massive body shots but can it happen. Canelo is good but I think his God like status in Mexico has gone to his head a bit. I could be wrong about that but I really got that feeling watching him fight Trout. How much better is Floyd than Trout. I may be jaded as I like Trout and I don't think he got a fair shake in Texas. I think Canelo had been ordained by the judges and the only way Trout could win was with a knockout. I really don't see Floyd losing this one, perhaps he will take on the winner of Garcia v Lucas.
