Floyd at Canelo s age was no longer fighting the cream of the cop imo. He never went to 154/160

Historically speaking fighters retire at or around 33; dude has a lot of miles on those tires.Canelo is 33, Floyd was champ at 154 at 35 beating Cotto...
Yeah once a fighter reaches 33 or 34 years old, they're stepping out of their physical prime years. Fighters decline at different rates. For heavyweight it just isn't as obvious. At the smaller weights it is.Historically speaking fighters retire at or around 33; dude has a lot of miles on those tires.

Well Cuban23 hates Canelo, so if you're calling Ward a hater, hes probably a hater.link: https://www.boxingscene.com/forums/...sal-to-fight-benavidez-would-taint-his-legacy
IMO Ward sounds like a hater. Benavidez and Canelo should fight each other at some point, but it's not a do-or-die for legacy. Canelo did fight Bivol, after all.
I agree.Andre Ward gets on my nerves, possibly the most overated fighter ive ever seen, his record is flimsy and outside of Froch and Kessler, very few notable wins
i just dont understand the love for him, he was a very good fighter, but man , he didnt fight for long times and doesnt really have a giant win on his resume, his style was also terrible to watch IMO, like a cross between Winky Wright and Hopkins, just an awkward fuckerI agree.
Got planted by Kovalevs palm and shouldve lost that fight.
Nobody will ever complain Canelo didn’t fight a prime Benavidez since Benavidez is 6 years younger than Canelo, lol.First people say "he never fought benavidez! This is a black mark on his legacy!"
Then they fight, and people say "he never fought Benavidez in his prime! This is a black mark on his legacy!"
Replace benavidez with fighter X and Canelo with fighter Y and its been said a thousand times before. I don't think anybody will be questioning canelo's legacy in 15 years.
I don't hate Canelo. Never have. I was the only one on here actually holding his feet to the fire and being objective.Well Cuban23 hates Canelo, so if you're calling Ward a hater, hes probably a hater.
