I hate to sit here and say this now but the first thing I thought about Alvarez was that he is just to slow. Im not gonna sit here and say I called the Floyd win because I didnt at all.

But I did think Alvarez was slow without good footwork. At the same time I thought he would be able to hit Floyd hard and have enough strength and power to overcome any shortcomings he might have which obviously wasnt the case. You obviously have to get and stay close to Floyd and have tons of technique and power to have a chance (I could be wrong here lol).

But yeah what you said sounds about right. The reason I wouldnt say your 100% right is becasue Floyd outclassed him so bad on the inside and outside. If Floyd would have at least made a mistake somewhere we could make an easier judgment on Alvarez. But what Floyd did was beautiful so its just hard to come to any conclusion on Alvarez.
