so a physically strong jr MW (who will finish his career at 160 or 168, and weighs in the 170's on fight night,) isn't going to take shots a former featherweight took?
you just don't like canelo, man.
it is what it is.

he was 19 years old, yes, and when you're 19 you don't take punches the way you do when you're a grown man
there have been a handful of world class fighters at 19 over the history of the sport. canelo alvarez certainly isn't / wasnt one of them. he wasn't there physically, and he doesn't have skills like the guys im about to mention.
benitez, tyson, vargas, pipino cuevas, are a few that jump to mind. somebody can probably help me out with a few more.

Ideal Scenario:
Mayweather vs manny first half of next year
Alvarez vs Winner of Cotto/Trout first half of next year
Mayweather vs Winner of Alvarez vs Cotto or Trout later next year
Then Mayweather retires undefeated. We were able to witness a highly skilled ATG, also our era's main star, leave the game without a single loss. He probably won't be up there with the likes of Ezzard Charles, but this breaks the old order. Great fighters can retire undefeated.

I just want to see Floyd fight one more time. There'll be ****** hype imo since he's coming out of jail.
