    That so possible. Money talks. Maybe he cant take a chance in case he hurts Canelo.

    Jr has always had poor technique. He used this size at 160 to bully the B-level fights. He's not even confident on the inside anymore and that's where he's most effective.

    He lacks all the necessary qualities of a good fighter. I think people thought his size would be a factor, but that's all he has and not much else.

    The worst thing Canelo could do is try to hide and fight David Lemieux.... that man is punching like an MF and not sure anymore that Canelo can hurt a middleweight.

    Yes but that has nothing to do with anything since Canelo isn't a power puncher.

    This lack of effort makes the Argenis Mendez who showed up against Luke Campbell look look super busy by comparison.
