    This would be such a good fight i feel. Feel like Eubank jr would overwhelm canelo with his work rate and aggression by 8th round. The defence of both would be fun to watch tho. How would u see this going?

    Canelo`s defense is far better and far more tested than Eubank`s, GGG hits harder at middle than jr does at super middle so Canelo would take his shot, Eubank`s reach advantage may be a problem though Canelo is too short for super middle he`d kill jr at middle though.

    Its a pity Canelo only fights twice a year, if he has 1 stay busy type fight then its a year between big fights.
    Canelo has a fan friendly style if a bloke is willing to trade with him and Jr certainly will.

    I like this fight and think it could happen @ 160 or 168, no need for a catchweight.

    Alvarez would win that fight....................Golovkin would have knocked Eubank out, but Eubank ran away..............

    Canelo would rip Eubank to pieces, probably win a wide legit UD, Eubank's flurries wouldn't work on Nelo, he'd be getting the **** countered out of his ass all night, and we know Canelo is as iron chinned as they come, so CEJ's little pitty pats ain't coming close to hurting Alvarez. There's levels here, and Canelo is on an entirely different one.

    Eubank Jnr has advantage of workrate and stamina but Canelo has much better punch variety and accuracy. I think Canelo wins on a UD by 3-4 rounds.

    I also like Canelo by UD. Eubank has a decent workrate and a good punch to be sure but Canelo has a true top-shelf defence and I think he's proved now that he can hang with the big boys. Golovkin was able to take him because of his superb jab and footwork, and I don't think those aspects of Eubanks game are at the same level.

    As far as skills go, Canelo's on another planet. Its not the full picture though, size wise this would never happen !

    Canelo and it's not even a debate in my mind, I can't believe people are actually picking Jr.

    Based on what? His epic win over Spike O'Sullivan? GTFO LOL
