[imp]

This fight is ridiculous.

Fight BJS or Plant asap.

Floyd schooled Canelo.

He was old and past it and boxed his ears off!

TBE.

You obviously have not heard of Sugar Ray Robinson or even Roy Jones.

Still enjoying the replays of Canelos last fight, that was a good advert for Canelo.

This upcoming fights is a keep busy,make money unti the next big occasion surely.

[erics44]

Canelos last fight was poo, smith was disappointing

maybe the short notice although he looked like he could have lost to john ryder also, maybe theres no motivation

[Denilson3.0]

Only the little punk nationalist Canelosexuals buy into this sort of mess. We all know this is another euro level creampuff to pad records. Maybe dayzin can have another pizza patron deal for the casuals.

Like Tim "Short Bus Head" Bradley said, Yildirim is nothing more than a heavy bag to practice combinations.

Two fights back this guy fought a guy with a 3-31 record. Seriously

Floyd didn't school Canelo. He won the fight. No question. But he never hurt Canelo. Never looked stopping him. Floyd was 100% focused for the full 12. No playin.

Fury - Wilder, that's a schooling. Mayweather Gatti, That's a schooling. Schooling is when you make it look like they dont belong in the ring with you.

Negative.

Floyd didn't school Canelo. He "university-ed" him. Schooling is child's play compared to what Floyd did to Canelo. If "schooling" means you should've never gotten in the ring with the other guy..... then "university-ing" means you should've slapped anyone who even suggested you get in the ring with the other guy.

Canelo missed most of his punches by at least a foot. The only reason he got the fight in the first place is because he was the undefeated, mega-hyped pretty face of boxing... and fighting the #1 p4p was the next "logical" step. The public, mostly the casuals, clamored for the fight... hoping for some miracle so that ginger-haired statues could be erected in Mexico and Vegas (same thing, in boxing).

Floyd TOYED with Canelo. He didn't knock him out because Canelo is MUCH BIGGER than Floyd... and I'll give Ginger that... he's got a great chin.

So no... sorry. In fact, you look up the word "schooling" in the dictionary and it refers you to "university-ing", where you'll promptly be greeted by a picture of the Floyd-Canelo fight.

My personal feeling is that floyd canelo was a lot closer than people made out, yes floyd won but there were rounds where he didnt throw a punch

one early round in particular he threw one landed one, the commentators were all bumming him about it but it was a canelo round

[TIC]

don't blink

That is true and you have to remember that just two years earlier Canelo was fighting Rhodes and Matthew Hatton, and with all the best will in the world that is some step up. It is also curious how the gap between two dominant fighters is often dictated by the timing of the bout. If the Canelo of now had met Floyd back then it may not have changed the result, but the fight would be completely different.

If he goes on and fights four times this year and stays off the beef then you have to admire the progression.

It is not just better fight plans, the guy has far more tools in his arsenal. Patience being the most devastating.

[erics44]

yeah the timing of the floyd canelo fight was everything in how it went and canelo is a completely different fighter now and much better to boot

Jamie Moore was involved in the greatest fight of all time when he knocked out Matthew Macklin but at no time has Jamie ever suggested he beat a peak Macklin, he has said a number of times on sky sports that Matt was on the way up and ended up at world title challenger level, probably should have won a world title against sturn which is a step further than Jamie went

But how often do you think you would ever hear Mayweather admit Canelo was on the way up? far from his peak?

when being frank the Canelo the fought mayweather wouldnt hear the final bell against the canelo of today

[TitoFan]

Oh boy... I can see we're getting carried away here.

People are talking as if Canelo was a 15-0 rising star, still a little wet behind the ears.

Canelo had 43 professional fights when he fought Floyd!! That is more than a full career for many fighters.

So please stop with the "Canelo was still on his way up" nonsense.

To see that followed with "Mayweather wouldn't hear the final bell against the Canelo of today" is even more mind-blowing.

Really??

Can we mention that Canelo is now a full-blown 168-pounder (when he isn't sneaking up to 175 or down to 160 to pick off gimpy zebras) with the chin of a light heavyweight?

Shit. This would be Canelo-Khan all over again.

I can see this legend bullshit morphing and getting a life of its own. Won't be long before TBE talk starts floating around.
