    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

    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.

    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

    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.

    do you think he was as good then as he is now?

    Oops sorry... I misunderstood. But to answer your question, no. Of course he's improved. He'd almost have to, given the additional fight experience.

    I'm not sure I'd go as far as saying the Canelo of that day wouldn't make the final bell against the Canelo of today. Today's Canelo would win... no doubt. But I don't think his progression has been all that. Honestly.

    I think most of it has been calculated match-making (my forever beef with Canelo's career)... and maybe settling into a weight he should've been at long ago. He held off on Golovkin until he felt Golovkin had begun his decline.

    But in all honesty Canelo could've faced Golovkin two years before. That's when the "marinating" B.S. first got coined.

    Beautiful post.

    You never mentioned the PEDS though.

    Canelo is a good fighter but we don’t know how many fights he legitimately won whilst off the PEDS.

    Floyd was also much smaller, dodgy hands and way out of his prime at an aging 37 years old.

    Floyd is a genius in the ring.

    BJS has to beat Canelo like Floyd as he’s not knocking him out.

    And he came up 2 weight divisions . Oh Dazn you killing me man. Would have been more honest to the fans to just walk into the ring and hand the interim belt to Arroyo.
