    Default Have reversed my Canelo-Win Prediction after watching Mosley-Canelo

    40 year old Shane, a real lightweight with double-fisted power at 135, decent power at welterweight (why didnt he ever fight Trinidad? that would have been great!!!), really has no left jab or oustanding left hook at 154, and just that short chopping right hand and occasional stright-down-the-pipe right lead.

    And even with all this deficit at age 40, he went the full 12 rounds with canelo----20 years younger!!!----and I scored the last 2 rounds for Mosely and I think he actually hurt or atleast stunned canelo a few times in the 11th and 12th rounds. I scored the fight 8 rounds Canelo, 3 rounds Mosley, 1 even or 117-112 for canelo. those 119-109 judges must have been smoking horse.

    Why I have reversed my prediction is:

    1. if a 40 year old Shane can take him all the way and even win the last 2 rounds, never slowing up, then imagine what Floyd will do.

    2. canelo doesnt fight more than 45 seconds of each 3 minute round.

    3. canelo doesnt follow-up when he has a fighter hurt.

    4. canelo has had too many fights already at age 21, reminds me of Vargas, and now he will get ruined just like Vargas fighting Floyd. I hate Floyd but after watching canelo against Shane I think for the first time in my life I will be rooting for Floyd.

    Not sure exactly why, I was high on canelo for the past 12 months, but now I think I saw something in the Mosely fight that tells me that canelo is a young strong punk and will not be around in another 2 or 3 years . His star will burn fast and bright and fizzle out by 2016. He will be an old 25 years old, like Vargas. Just like Vargas.

    This fight is why I dont rate Canelo. I was falling asleep during it, it was that dull and against a completely worn out fighter like Mosley he should have got him out of there, especially seeing as Shane was so much smaller! Shane is easy to hit compared to Floyd too.

    yes canelo only has a very small chance against floyd and its only because of the huge size advantage he will have come fight night.When canelo met mosley everyone new mosley didnt have a chance it was a test for canelo to ko mosley and what actually happened was that mosley did better againest canelo than he did againest floyd and pacman. canelo is very over rated and floyd will show this with a very 1 sided fight. I think even now pacman would give floyd a better test.

    Canelo lacks power , if he had a big punch to go with his nice skills and speed then yes he could have a chance.
    However Floyd brings amazing speed and skills to the table , UD Floyd

    i think floyd will shock the world and stop canelo in the middle rounds like 7-8.
    i think floyd needs a fight like this to wake everybody up and show he is still hot.
    i think floyd does the opposite of what we are all thinking and he goes right at canelo.
    floyd will not take too kindly to being pushed and bulled around the ring and at some point he will stand his ground and really do some damage.

    wow have I changed my mind on this. floyd by TKO in round 8

    Sir, you talk trash almost as well a Ali.
    Plenty of us are hoping Canelo will win or at least look good against Floyd, but most of us know what's coming.
    When Floyd beats Canelo, it will not make Canelo worthless, a bum, irrelevant or disappear from the boxing world.
    This is a fight you should just set back and enjoy, watch Floyd work his magic and hope Canelo can put Floyd on his ass, it would create some great posts, in my opinion. LOL

    We all know whats going to happen lets just all pretend canelo size snd power will make a difference.

    Money will dance and counter all over this guy and the post discussion will be that canelo was too green and floyd is still ducking manny.

    This will be another masterclass and i cant wait.

    I think your being a bit dissrespectful to Mosely. I don't think I have even seen Mosely badly hurt, never mind knocked down or knocked out.

    Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather, Antonio Margarito, Miguel Cotto, Oscar De La Hoya, Fernando Vargas and Winky Wright could not get him out of there

    So why should Canelo ?

    Canelo dominated Mosely and eased up in the final two when the UD was in the bag

    He must be doing something right to still be an unbeaten world champ at the age of 22. It's not about being a Wayne McCullogh and throwing loads of punches that wins fight. It's about what you do when you throw the punches. Mayweather fights in single shots and doesn't really throw that many combos. It's about the intensity and sting you bring with the punches that you throw. Mike Tyson is another one - You tube him - He didn't waste shots so every punch he threw had bad intentions

    You could view that as a maturity beyond his years. Most fighters know when they're opponent is hurt, sometimes a fighter can be shaken and not badly hurt.

    Mexicans don't seem to bother with building up these stellar amateur careers. If they did then they would seriously threaten Cuban and the european dominance of the amateurs. It's not how many fights you've had that makes you ring worn but how hard they have been.

    Carl Froch is 13 years older than Canelo but has had 11 less fights than him but the fights he has had have been much harder than Canelos. A lot of Canelo's earlier fights were little more than sparring sessions.

    I just think Mayweather can't carry on fighting at the elite level that he does and aging that he is and expecting to have relatively straight forward UD verdicts everytime. Eventually there is always someone who has your number and it could be Canelo.
