    Just a thought.
    Was watching some fights and other boxing related stuff and saw an interview where Rosado was "calling out" Canelo. The comments were saying that Rosado is delusional and that Canelo would beat up Rosado easily.

    But would he really?


    Rosado has really good footwork, combos, hand speed, ring generalship (which Canelo lacks), and you KNOW he beat Quillin and J'leon Love. Lemieux is a great ring chaser and fuc7ed him up, and GGG is secretly a robot so that's why Rosado lost those.
    But against Canelo?

    Thoughts on this?

    P.S. I do think Rosado is underrated but I'm NOT saying he would beat Alvarez.

    Saul Alvarez vs A guy with 4 fights losing streak who won his last fight 2,5 years ago.

    That should be hard to predict indeed.

    Rosado would give Cotto problems, but I don't know if he would beat him. Golovkin would beat them both in one night..............

    I think its a competitive bout. Wish Rosado could make a case for deserving a shot at Canelo, I think it would be a good one.

    Yall seem to forget he lost to Charlo. Rosado's handspeed doesn't seem great at all at 154. This would be an easy fight for Canelo. But even then I think Canelo wouldn't take it on account it would look bad fighting a guy with a 4 loss streak.

    Indeed it would.

    Im suprised they dont try to build rosado up a bit in 2015 to try and feed him to Canelo for his middle debut in 2016.

    Rosado is a big MW there are weight classes for a reason if canelo fight him at 160 it would be a tough fight for canelo skills don't come in to play when it comes to that size difference.

    The guy was fighting at 154 until very recently.

    Hes not a "big MW"

    When you say "that size difference" what are you referring to exactly?

    Good fight but Canelo does everything little better so it would be a typical Rosado fight: He can hang on there and do some good stuff but ends up coming short. I don't see any advantages for Rosado. Canelo is too strong and powerful compared to gabe.
