Mosley says PBF and Canelo have about the same punching power

[imp]

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

Lol

This situation can happen in many fights but it did not happen in this one.

End.

This thread actually made me look at the fight again. There was a couple of instances where Canelo had Mosley in trouble and didn't go for it. Only Canelo knows if he pulled back on purpose or not. But it kind of looks like he did. I know this goes against what you been saying, so Im not expecting you to agree with it. It's just my 2 cents

No probs scotty,

Its all good fun.

We all cant agree on things or the world would be very boring.

No one really knows but canelo if he felt he could have got the KO but didnt.

I just cant see mosely getting KO by canelo when he couldnt finish matthew hatton at a catchweight he was overweight for.

My opinion like many others is that canelo (regardless of how big he is) could not KO mosely because the risk was too great not because of respect.

The Hatton fight is really not a good example. The way Hatton fought that night, I don't think Pacquiao or Mayweather or any top fighter around that weight would of stopped Hatton. Hatton wasn't fighting to win. He was fighting to survive. Every time he was hurt and whenever Canelo got to close Hatton would latch on for dear life. He wouldn't let go till the ref broke them up. It's very hard to stop an opponent who's only trying to survive and is holding more than he's punching.

Stop making sense. He can't comprehend it. And it's a waste of time. Cuz he's never seen the fight. If he had he would of never used it as an example. It's pretty easy to tell the fools who live off boxing rec. It's there friend. But it exposes them as well

I was surprised to see the Hatton fight used as an example. But I understand now that I know he hasn't seen it.

Your right scotty,

To evade getting knocked out all you need to do is grab and hold like matthew hatton did.

And your right, floyd or manny wouldnt know how to deal with matthew hatton punchbag defensive skills and would have been there all night.

Well done petal.

Hatton is a bit bigger than floyd and manny so would have more power like VD mentioned earlier and might have held back knocking out both of these £4£ champs out of respect.

Loool

I look forward to both of you starting a thread after the floyd/canelo fight and you telling me in detail how canelo size difference in power beats floyd on points and the post match press conference discussing why canelo never went for the KO...
"it was out of respect"

Get a room.
