Well to be honest the only fights iv seen of Alvarez were the Hatton fight where I was wondering what the big deal was. Then the Rhodes fight which wasn't a great deal better and then the Mosley fight which was so boring I kept nodding off.
It may be a biased point of view but this upcoming fight doesn't fill me with anticipation in the slightest. To be honest although the scores were wide I felt Marquez was the only person to have the sense to not let that lean back defence deter him. He kept throwing shots. Same as Cotto. I just cannot see Alvarez doing the same.
He has a lot of power against light-flyweights though, ask Ulises Solis hehe
I can understand why mosley would feel that way. When you get hit with real accurate punches and shots that you dont see coming, they will hurt a lot more than it looks and he took a lot of those from floyd.
Canelo may be heavier handed and his punches might have more muster but that doesnt necessarily mean that his shots can cause more pain.
Floyd is a dangerous puncher due to his speed, timing, and punch placement.
Mosley fought both so he knows this.
Alvarez has always had great respect for Mosley. He took it easy on him. He could of stopped him if he wanted. But out of respect for him he never went for it
