    Canelo fought quite well in that fight and made the better power shots.

    Trout was throwing that jab all night but didnt look accurate.

    The main big weakness i see is canelos stamina. Floyd will exploit that in the later rounds.
    Floyd isn't active enough for Alvarez stamina to be an issue

    I think floyd is going to go to another level this fight, he's going to look the best we have ever seen and I think the ref stops the fight around 7 or 8 floyds going to do what he did to gatti he will completely dominate him till the ref jumps in

    I can guarantee that this won't happen. Floyd doesn't go for broke. Always plays it safe. Which is why he has to sell most of his fights with his mouth. Not going to happen.

    Floyd is guy that takes two years off and comes back like its nothing.

    Stint in prison and played with guerrero for 12 rounds.

    Stamina affects loads of good fighters inc cotto and zab judah, the fact that floyds stamina and endurance is far better than canelo is and always will be a factor in his advantage.

    If Alvarez would have pressed the lead, used the grade c blueprint of a Floyd he had in front of him and hammered Trout out, I might go there. Just can't off that fight. I see a stiff fast jab giving Alvarez shit fits and don't see him keeping Floyd still long enough for the body work.

    Exactly.

    Just think how annoying it must be fighting floyd with all the running back and forth he does and the accurate counters.

    I expected canelo to loose against trout but he handled himself very well and his face showed no sign of damage after the fight.

    Trout had the reach advantage like someone mentioned but doesnt have the defense.

    I'm not disagreeing with this assesment because in my opinion, it's spot on. But, I have to say that I've noticed Floyd spending a bit more time in one spot than he ever has. I was suprised at how many exchanges he got into with Cotto. Subtract 10 years from Cotto in those exchanges and we may have a much closer fight...not saying Cotto would have won...but much closer.
