Things I took away from tonight's fight.....

[beenKOed]

Jay Nady, who I thought was a decent referee, was terrible last night. I can't remember when a referee tried harder to influence the outcome of a fight. In my opinion, he lost the fight for Ishe Smith, due to backlash against his constant harping about Molina's every move. I hope Nady will look at a replay because he does have a great Marine salute, plus I don't want to believe he is corrupt.

Canelo and his people were smart to turn down a fight with Floyd when he was 19, he wasn't ready then and he was not ready last night. Floyd has not slowed down at all. Almost everything they say about Floyd's ability as a fighter is true. Canelo is honest, he only offered one excuse and it was the truth.

Adrien Broner pisses me off faster than anyone. He reminds me of a clown who is not funny, every time he opens his mouth I grind my teeth.

Danny Garcia is the man, with a chin to match. Wow! That was a terrific fight and great performance by both fighters. Lucas Matthysse has nothing to be ashamed of, his chin is rock solid too. Danny's chin, hand speed, combinations and positioning were the deciding factors in the fight.

I didn't learn this last night but I'd like to give my opinion anyway, the Card girls don't get enough attention and they allow too many people in the ring, which makes the Card girls harder to see.

It being the US, the judging was was a combination of good, bad and very ugly. Nothing new learned there either.

Floyd is not worth the money he is paid.
Floyd will not knock out anyone who has not got his hands up.

It was a good learning thing for Alvarez. I think he becomes a better fighter because of it.
I'm not sure why they tried to box with Floyd but that seemed to be the plan.
The kid has a bright future regardless of last night.
He got beat by the best fighter on the planet. No shame in that.

I don't know why everyone is saying this fight was a blowout. Remember, it was a split decision.

It was an MD because some post menopausal dim wit scored it 114/114. The 117/111 and 116/112 were in touch with reality.

Lol we need a sarcasm icon because I realized that after I responded.
