Is Canelo's punching power overrated?

    He's got power, but I don't think it's anything special. Most of his knockouts came from smaller guys. He demolished Josesito Lopez just on size alone.

    Trout was a great victory though. He put him down, but he didn't do much after that. I actually think Trout won the rest of that KD round.

    Mosely has said after the Canelo fight that Floyd hits just as hard as Canelo

    Trout was dropped by David Lopez
    Vanes dropped him in the amatuers.

    Canelito is not a puncher..

    Baldomir would quickly disagree with Shane .

    Baldomir had a TITLE when Floyd fought him.
    He was retired and not close to being in shape when Canelito fought him.

    OK... what does Baldomir having a title have to do with any of this

    Floyd hit baldomir AT WILL and won a shut out . Yet None of his punches Made Baldomir even blink .

    Canelo knocked Baldomir flat on his face on the canvas and won a KO. Bigg difference in pop between the 2 .

    Even the bigger 6FT1 Vernon forrest (RIP) who would tower over Canelo could not put Baldomir away .

    anyone hits hard enough to get a ko if the catch the guy right. I guess you think the opposite is not true? If floyd catches Alvarez with the right punch will Alvarez go down?

    :patsch

    Baldomir was RETIRED ...he came out for a payday against Alvarez.If you can't see what that to do with anything ...you sir don't know squat.

    No wonder you're an Alvarez fan..you gotta' be dumb to be one.

    Floyd fought an ACTIVE fighter...a Champion...he didn't fight a bloated shell of Baldomir...nor did Forrest.

    Forrest didn't fight an out of shape retired Carlos Baldomir...if he did he would have planted Baldo in his face a LOT SOONER THAN CANELITO did.:deal
