In the Khan fight, he still got hit quite a lot.

Simple logic, if old man welterweight Mosely almost knocked floyd out with a punch. What more if it's a prime Canelo.
It only takes one punch from a 155lb Canelo and it's over for Floyd. He wont let Floyd reach 12.
# 155 lbs not the drained 152 lbs at present is more than enough to obliterate that running hugger
# no Usada, no weight drain, no Excessive hugging, no Bayless, no vegas judges, Canelo wins this big with one perfectly timed shot.Last edited by Spoon23; 05-15-2016, 04:18 AM.Comment

He's improved hugely as a fighter.
It's not a surprise, at age 25 he's still developing. He's got a higher ring IQ, he's more adept at switching things up, his set up work is better, he's a better body puncher...
He still wouldn't beat that version of Mayweather who was simply sensational, but he's a much improved fighter and Mayweather is older and has clearly declined so a rematch would be interesting.Comment

Yes he can and will if given a chance. An old man Mosely who's slow got to floyd and almost flattened him. A 155lb solid Canelo only needs one perfect shot to end it. Floyd wont make it to 12.Originally posted by gmc_rfc_06 View Post
As ive been saying. I'll bet my house and all my chips. Floyd gets humiliated with a 155lb Canelo. Floyd can outpoint Canelo, but what you floyd lovers dont see. It doesnt need to reach 12. One punch is all it takes from a game hungry 155 beast Canelo.

Canelo is my favourite fighter.
The Mayweather who fought Canelo was just too sharp, it is what it is.
However, Mayweather clearly declined between then and Berto. I don't believe a rematch happens for a number of reasons, but a clearly slower and faded Mayweather against a Canelo who is nearing his prime...I'd pick Canelo at this point.Comment

Khan best said it, before he fought Canelo. He kept on repeating to the boxing world. Im fighting a 155lb Canelo not the drained version, if I beat him it would mean more than the Nelo that Floyd beat. (referring to the green 22 yo drained Nelo)
And off course we all know Khan with all the speed that he had got obliterated with a bigger man who only needed one punch to end the fight.
If floyd rematches with a 155 nelo. Floyd will off course outpoint him, but once A Canelo solid punch lands. Its over for floyd, but we all know floyd wont fight the real deal 155 Canelo. That would be dumb of him and off of his script from his well known calculated cherry picking ideals of fighting to his conditions and advantages.

That wall though.Comment

Floyd beats Canelo 10/10.
Canelo's improvement is exaggerated, particularly by fans who hate Floyd. He looks better now because none of his opponents are even close to the skill level that Mayweather is at.
Put Canelo in there against Mayweather now and he gets beat just as bad.Comment

I don't see it, he's always fought like this, patience and good boxing skills, with lead to back it up. Where's the improvements?Comment

I think Khan improved, but stayed in the pocket too long. Plus, he bit on a feint and got stopped by a much bigger man.
Reminded me of Gatti vs Joey Gamache!
For you young guys, who didn't see it live on HBO, I envy you.
