    Canelo was definitely too green for Floyd. I don't think it discredits Floyd to say that.

    Floyd straight up outclassed him. I love that fight though Floyd dominated, it felt competitive

    You could see Floyd constantly beating him to the punch and outmaneuvering him. Every once in a while, Canelo would get him and make Floyd smirk

    Yeah he had 43 fights but he was 23,24

    At his peak I still think Floyd beats him clearly, far more competitive fight if Canelo changes his strategy but we going to far with the Floyd love to act like he faced the best version of Canelo

    GGG probably would knock Floyd out though. ? came in light as ? for a 154 fight. GGG would just be too big. They make weight classes for a reason

    Had Floyd faced GGG at the same time he faced Canelo, the outcome would be the same, Floyd way to smart in that ring and Floyd got too much skill for GGG to get that W, he has in his arsenal, ? that just can´t be taught and just too intelligent for them.

    Like ? like this is just borderline irrational

    GGG is a Silver medalist and too big. Floyd ain't the best fighter no matter how many times he says it. Floyd became the greatest matchmaker in 06

    Can't and don't agree with that ? at all.

    If the ? was only based on skill I could somewhat agree but it's not. You leaving out the fact that even in the Canelo fight Floyd's best days were a few years behind him.

    GGG has skills himself, cuts off the ring, real power in both hands, cuts off the ring well and most important to go along with all that a huge size difference over Floyd.

    Floyd was right to never fight GGG and should never be faulted for in doing so.

    Nobody said or acted like Floyd fought the best version of Canelo. I also will never say Canelo was green either.

    There is a big ass difference in not being the best you and being green.

    I just can't call a fighter green after 43 fights and boxing for damn near 10 years.

    A person can not have hit their physical prime after 10 years but if you still green on the job after 10 years something is wrong.

    He don't need one cause promoters today don't promote like Don King and them used to do.

    Haymon does basically the same ? promoters do today. Which is shop the fighter to HBO & Showtime collect that fee and let them promote the fight on the channel in between the movies and series they show on those channels.

    What is Spence career lacking not having a promoter?

    He is a growing name, has a belt and getting money.
