I distinguished the words on purpose. They should change the rules back to 25+ rounds for smaller boxers. I get why heavyweights going that long could lead to severe injury, but can Floyd duck and runfor 25 with out brain damage. I don't think I saw a single punch in round 10. Canelo should have just grabbed his stool and sat in the ring.
Mayweather showed me that Canelo can't hit him. Mayweather didn't show me shit about being able to beat Canelo. I would have scored it a draw too.

isnt winning about being better than the other guy? floyd was definitely better than canelo in that fight. if he wasnt, canelo wouldve been able to actually hit him.

Boxing is about being better. True. Very true. Floyd wins fights like they're the Olympics or Amateur bouts, largely based on points. The idea of "Floyd runs too much" is more based on his refusing to stand and trade with a fighter. Every fighter has a different style that they're comfortable with, so that's fine. But, people want to see Floyd trade. Obviously he wouldn't go toe to toe with Canelo, he would be nuts to do that. But, I guarantee if Floyd won a fight like that, sentiments would change. Also, if he was fighting fighters at the top of their game, he would gain more respect.

Floyd threw 505 total punches to Canelo's 526. May hit him 232 times, Canelo just 117.
I don't think 21 less punches calls for Floyd "dodging" him, especially when he connected 100+ more times.

I'm not riding anything. I'm just calling it how I saw it. Stats mean nothing in this case. It's not the number of punches so much as the impact of them that I'm talking about. I saw one or two puches thrown by Mayweatrher that semed to be with intent to hurt, as opposed to the other 503 that were thrown with intent to connect and earn a point.
In a boxing exhibition Maywether took Canelo to school, but in a fight he didn't do shit to him.
This isn't the olympics or amatuers. This is supposed to be fighters fighting. That's why I'd call it a draw.
Think about it in sports terms. Mayweather had the best defense possible on a basketball court. Every time the opponent had the ball he blocked the shot or stole the ball outright. The other team didn't make a single basket. But Team Mayweather never once took the ball pased halfcourt to even take a shot. At the end of the day the score is zero/zero. Thus, a draw.
I have no clue who would have won in a fight. Maybe in 25 rounds Mayweather eventually gets a few shots on Canello and really hurts him. I'm just saying what I saw on Saturday was not one guy beating another in a fight.

Why would you describe a sport with another sport? lol. Maybe I need to read the rule book but I thought boxing was based on a points system. MM should've won by unanimous decision. Stats is a big deal in boxing.
