    most agree that from 147 floyd is to good for manny. But for me canelo has the height, reach n style to give floyd problems.

    I disagree. He's undeveloped, has a very predictable style, and it will take more than height and a punch alone to beat Floyd.

    hell no.

    Floyd has already beat up enough Latin boxer-punchers

    At least emmanuel brings a different style to the table

    Yup, I mean he did just about beat the mighty Alfonso Gomez.

    Of course by that logic, Cotto is going to knock Mayweather out in a round...

    canelo has similar attributes as delahoya, in speed, reach, combination punching and good power.

    /thread.

    Floyd counters all night to a mid round stoppage of Canelo if the fight happened tomorrow.

    Cinnamon is good, but the kid has a average chin, not a godlike chin like Oscar.

    My grandma has a better chance at beating Floyd than Manny does. Sorry, but these ****ers act like he is the second coming of Bruce lee and ****.

    No way and not close, this is laughable to be honest.

    Alvarez isn't experience enough and his style is far too predictable for Mayweather. He's going to lose one sided by UD. It will almost look like the Baldomir fight.

    no

    Oscar was one of the fastest Mexicans ever

    Saul is incredibly slow

    Bruce Lee is an actor. I don't understand why many people overlook that.

    This. Plus he does not have an elite jab like Oscar.

    Canelo's a good, young fighter but he has nothing to speak of really on ODLH or Pacquiao, really. Certainly not until proven otherwise, which he hasn't come anywhere close to.

    I could see the argument towards this.. because IMO mayeeather would beat pac with ease.. and canelo at least has size power and a smart offensive boxer puncher style..

    Ill wait for canelo to peak and mature more though... but I think currently he stands a chance
