Watch the fights last night with family and friends. Liked that Cano kid that fought in the first fight, just one thing missing, he can’t punch. Carlos Molina? If God wants to punish me for any past sins, all he has to do is make me watch Molina fight.

The Danny Garcia vs Lucas Matthysse fight was in my opinion the best fight of the night. Have to tip the fedora to Philly Ray for telling us naysayers how improved Garcia was since winning the title, yes, Danny has grown since winning the title, he is a much more disciplined fighter in the ring than he was before, He’d revert back to his wild swinging old style couple of times, but he caught himself doing it and corrected himself quick. He is going to be a force to reckon with at 140 pounds; or at 147 if he; decides to move up to that weight class. But I do think he needs to be kept away from Floyd for at least a year or more.

I have been telling my friends and anybody that would listen to me for some time now that Canelo was a manufactured fighter. What with his good looks, a Mexican with red hair, what was there not to like? But, I, from the first time I watched him fight saw a very limited fighter, my friend Charlie Ortega thought that Canelo was sent down from the heavens, he bet the ranch last night and now he is homeless. I was constantly been told, “He is a young fighter, he is still learning” But now he has close to 50 fights, at what point do you say he has learned as much as he is going to learn? I say that time is now. Not to take anything away from Floyd, but, Canelo, in my opinion looked like a very ordinary fighter last night. Some will say “most fighters look ordinary against Floyd”  and that may be true, Floyd is a master after all, but I can’t help feeling a bit vindicated in my assessment of Canelo.
