    Good? He's great. Absolute masterpiece videos and always a treat when he drops something new. Love his Pep video. He even got a shout out from Jim Lampley.

    You'll find all professional boxers interviewed about Canelo respect his skills. Most also consider him completely suspect. Even Saunders just mentioned Canelo's ever growing physique.

    The interesting thing about comparing GGG/Kovalev and Canelo is that GGG/Kovalev have stayed in the same weight classes basically their whole careers and their bodies haven't noticeably changed. Canelo is the ever growing man. You don't naturally 'fill out' once you reach mid 20s, particularly if you're already an athlete. And Canelo isn't just getting fat like some older fighters who change classes out of laziness.

    The irony is that GGG particularly is criticised for not going up in weight to 'challenge himself' but this is actually a good sign that he's a clean fighter. He's basically being criticised by Canelo fans for not being a PED user like their boy. The suspicious ones are those who just climb weight classes with ease. This is where Malignaggi makes good points.

    Damn, and here I clicked on this thread fully expecting to see that Canelo had signed to star in a remake of Takashi Miike's Ichi the Killer. I'm so disappointed.:xqw

    That's a damn good cover. I prefer his vocals but Young's music. They ought to do a mash up and merge the two together.

    Indeed. Logically speaking, power should not travel up either. If Kovalev suddenly started lifting weights and weighed 200lb in the next 6 months, he isn't going to become a naturalised cruiserweight with cruiserweight power all of a sudden....

    Canelo on the other hand has been a monster in every weight division. Nothing makes sense with him.....

    I’m no expert but a quick google search says it’s for weight loss and building lean muscle mass which would explain it being used by athletes.
    Where this drug gets into murky waters according to the same article is its use as a masking agent?Ive seen posts from folk on YouTube who’ve used this stuff and they’ve said don’t be fooled about this stuff.Clenbuterol is one strong PED and if someone took to much for the first time it would **** you up.Same posters said they’ve used it in conjunction with other stuff,presume this is what’s known as stacking.

    Same article also states Mexican farmers using it in cattle.

    one of the reasons why nothing makes sense is because of their reluctance to show Canelos true weight on fight night.Theyve actually done themselves a disservice because you could say at 154 and 160 he was killing himself which is why he gassed and had limited power?
    Instead they put out this fake narrative that Canelo was small and needed to grow to become a middleweight which his fans bought.Most of us always knew he was a natural super middleweight draining down and I always thought he’d fare better at his natural weight.
    I’m not claiming he’s clean mind you,merely pointing out that Canelo was always cutting massive amounts to make middleweight. I always thought Kell Brook to be a massive weight cutter as well.

    His Pep vid is great and he knows more than Lampley about boxing.

    Its not banned according to WADA. And if you really think that the two tests that resulted in positive findings are from two different incidents, you are really dumb.

    he could have been caught 20 times, if they had kept testing the same squirt of pizz. do you understand where the moronic statements are coming from?
