    After Canelo stops Kovalev, could he move all the way up to Heavyweight and challenge for the titles? Roy Jones and James Toney did it.

    Canelo vs Fury, make it happen.
    Battle of Gingers, Orange-tinted Showdown... it’ll be glorious!

    James toney and Roy Jones we're two of the most talented fighters of the 20th century. Canelo is a pretty good middleweight

    Rehydration clause with a maximum weight of 201 lbs.

    I would favor Canelo against Fury and Joshua at that weight.

    Not likely. If it did happen, it wouldn't be pretty. Canelo has a great chin. But even his chin has its limits when faced with the huge heavyweight punchers. Canelo wouldn't have the power to hold these guys off either.
