    not as effective as Mayweather but tell me how many of those shots actually hurt canelo, how many of them acutally hit him with power, Canelo rolled them off and brushed them off his shoulder like they were nothing... and then TKO'd him after he was done...

    I wouldn't want him doing it either first time he ever did it... but hey it makes us laugh don't be so serious I was JK... I like cracking joked bro.. :thumbsup

    the best performance I've seen from him was against Rhodes...some of u mentioned that he didnt move his head but in this fight he did it all the right way, he moved his head, threw 4-5 punches combos and cut off the ring in a smart way

    He does not move his feet much but he has great balance.

    Did you know he was in the reserves of a first division soccer team in Mexico?
    I forget what team it was but he said so in an interview. He was on his way to becoming a professional soccer player but chose boxing instead.

    I don't know about the best puncher out of Mexico but I think he is an excellent puncher. Throws with good power and keeps it up for twelve rounds without getting too tired. I think a lot of fans are overlooking this kid. Mosley wants another payday and that's the only reason he wants the fight, I doubt too many top guys are begging for an Alvarez fight. He will definitely put the JMW division chins to the test.

    I know. I was just trying to protect my own statement, didn't want to get carried away and say he was the best.

    He has an exciting style. He's popular in Mexico because of his style.

    Why were Barrera, morales so popular, yet Marquez wasn't?

    The red hair makes him unique, although you find a lot of white people in Mexico city, Monterrey and mexicali, red heads Are in fact rare in Mexico.
