    Imho ggg continues to be the most difficult fight for anyone at MW.

    Probably he would lose against DJ, GGG, and BJS but the judges would protect him as always

    The BJS who schooled Lemieux, for sure.

    The one I would most like to see is Charlo. Why? Because Charlo is an unknown. He could be easy work for Canelo or he may knock Canelo out. We just don't know. And to be fair, they should stop ducking Charlo. Give him the shot.

    Bjs good call, think it's a long road back for him now though...why was he added to the Frampton card so late when he was in camp not so long ago?

    that's a fair point man but I think he slightly edged the rematch.

    Billy Joe and Andrade both run rings round Canelo. Every time Canelo has faced a moving target he has struggled. Even against Khan there were points where Khan had the upper hand.

    Jacobs is a tough fight too but he's not as elusive as BJS and Andrade are, or as skilled. I think it's a 50-50 against Jacobs.

    Charlo is easy work for Canelo. He is a bum. I don't rate him whatsoever. His power is overrated. Believe me, BJS hits harder than Charlo does. (Billy Joe's power is never spoken about when it's pretty clear he can hit, just watch what happened to Lemieux. He was busted up mid-fight). Canelo annihilates Charlo by KO in 6 rounds.

    Also, I know it may sound silly to some, but Eubank Jr has a chance. Here's why: Canelo's one major weak point in my eyes is that he doesn't move a lot. He's a great boxer but he stays still. Eubank Jr is relentless. If Eubank Jr can land he's a force to be reckoned with (Canelo isn't Groves and he certainly isn't BJS in terms of movement and elusiveness). Eubank won't knock Canelo out, but he can outfight Canelo up close and win on points.

    I would definitely say BJS if we are talking about the toughest at middleweight. But if you count super-middle, the IMPOSSIBLE task for Canelo would be Callum Smith. Callum would almost certainly knockout Canelo.

    Golovkin whipped him twice so I'd say him.

    Other than GGG it's probably BJS or Jacobs. Actually I'll go with Jacobs because Danny throws flurries and punches HARD and has a chance to knock his ass out. BJS might outbox Canelo and then lose 8-4 on the Vegas cards.

    He might struggle once Canelo sticks a 10lb rehydration clause on him.

    Would love to watch Canelo & BJS fight each other with luck it might happen.
