The Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Canelo Álvarez fight took place on September 14, 2013, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was a highly anticipated bout between the undefeated, pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather Jr. and the rising young star Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez.Mayweather, known for his exceptional defense, speed, and ring IQ, put on a masterclass performance. From the opening bell, he controlled the fight with his superior footwork, head movement, and pinpoint accuracy. Canelo, who was just 23 years old at the time, struggled to cut off the ring and land clean shots against Mayweather’s elusive style.
Throughout the fight, Mayweather’s jab and counterpunching were the defining factors. He consistently outlanded Canelo, frustrating the young Mexican star and making him hesitant to engage aggressively. Despite Canelo’s strength and attempts to apply pressure, he was unable to impose his power on Mayweather, who dictated the pace and distance.
After 12 rounds, Mayweather won by majority decision (114-114, 116-112, 117-111), with judge C.J. Ross controversially scoring it a draw, despite Mayweather’s dominance. The fight further cemented Mayweather’s legacy as one of the greatest defensive boxers in history and highlighted Canelo’s inexperience at the time.
This fight remains one of Mayweather’s most impressive performances and a pivotal learning moment in Canelo’s career, as he later evolved into one of the sport’s best fighters.
