    Ottke? In his time he will loss on cards, ottke was canelo No2 for this for sure and he will not debilitate or just even get down this Ottke.
    Never.

    prime Nigel Benn in good night had did vs him the same he had did vs Gerald and easier.

    Roy Jones Jr - lose, badly, could be a shutout for prime Roy
    James Toney - lose, but not as bad as against Jones
    Nigel Benn - win, but a very exciting fight
    Chris Eubank Sr - win, close, interesting matchup
    Joe Calzaghe - lose badly, Joe might get dropped but would win every other second of the fight
    Sven Ottke - win
    Carl Froch - win, close though. Would pick Froch over 15
    Mikkel Kessler - lose, assuming Kessler from Calzaghe era, from super 6 Canelo wins
    Andre Ward - lose, finds out what it’s like to be bullied

    He loses to Jones, Toney, Benn, Eubank, Calzaghe, and Ward but beats Ottke, Froch, and Kessler.

    Roy Jones Jr- Loss (too fast and too good of a mover)
    James Toney- Loss (assuming we get Toney in the mood)
    Nigel Benn- Win (would be a fire fight)
    Chris Eubank Sr- Win (I think Chris gets outworked)
    Joe Calzaghe- Loss
    Sven Ottke- Win easily
    Carl Froch- Win clear
    Mikkel Kessler- Win
    Andre Ward- Loss

    Smith & Saunders between them beat an ancient Martin Murray & a faded Groves who retired at 30 LOL.. That's Canelos legacy at SMW. An inactive Smith & a MW who'd done nothing in years. Both of whom were pushed to the brink by Ryder. If that was anyone else the Canelo joy boys would be panning them :lol: .. but now he beats southpaw legends like JC or freak athletes like Jones or all-time great KO artists like Benn?! Ok. Let's be honest he couldn't even beat an old FMJ or GGG. A WW & a MW. Today's SMW is a meth den. What's wig Plants best win? Truax? LMAO..

    Based on when they were at their best at smw. With styles making fights

    Roy Jones Jr - Jones possibly inside schedule

    James Toney - Alvarez with a competitive but clear decision

    Nigel Benn - Benn but in a tough decision win

    Chris Eubank Sr - Eubank in a close fight where Eubank does just enough to win

    Joe Calzaghe - Calzaghe possibly inside schedule

    Sven Ottke - Ottke by non eventful decision

    Carl Froch - tough to call. Could see this either way. Draw

    Mikkel Kessler - Kessler clear decision

    Andre Ward - Ward with a mauling type win in a close decision

    Why might Calzaghe get dropped?
    He only went down twice in 22 smw title fights
    Froch went down the same amount in less title fights

    Even The Phantom Ottke would be a terrible style match up for Clenelo

    If MW BJS 2.0 can cause him big problems with his slickness and movement amateur sensation Ottke would definitely give him nightmares

    This content is protected


    Even The Phantom's amateur CV alone urinates all over Clenelo's resume:


    Michael Moorer - WBO LHW champion, WBA, IBF, WBO HW champ

    Henry Maske - Olympic gold medalist, world amateur gold medalist, European gold medalist x 3, long reigning IBF LHW champ

    Ariel Hernandez - 2 x Olympic gold medalist, world amateur gold medalist x 2 & 1 x silver

    Alexander Lebziak - Olympic gold medalist, world amateur gold & silver medalist, European gold medalist x 2, silver x 1, bronze x 2

    Chris Byrd - Olympic silver medalist, WBO & IBF HW champion

    Zsolt Erdei - world amateur gold medalist, Olympic bronze medalist, European gold medalist x 2 & silver x 1, long reigning WBO LHW champ, WBC CW champ

    Torsten May - Olympic gold medalist, world amateur gold medalist

    Vassiliy Jirov - Olympic gold medalist, 2 x world amateur bronze medalist, IBF CW champion

    Juan Carlos Gomez - long reigning WBC CW champ, world junior champion as an amateur

    Antonio Tarver - world amateur gold medalist, Olympic bronze, WBC, IBF, WBA LHW champ

    Angel Espinosa - world amateur gold and silver medalist

    Sinan Samil Sam - world amateur gold and bronze medalist, European bronze and silver medalist, world junior gold medalist, European HW champion

    Andrey Kurniavka - world amateur gold and silver medalist, European bronze medalist

    Ramon Garbey - world amateur gold & bronze medalist

    Torsten Schmitz - world amateur silver medalist 2 x bronze, European silver medalist

    Egerton Marcus - Olympic silver medalist

    Thomas Ulrich - Olympic bronze medalist, world amateur bronze medalist, world junior silver medalist, European LHW champ

    Rostislav Zaulichnyy - world amateur bronze medalist, 2 x European bronze medalist, gold medalist at the world cup

    Chris Johnson - Olympic bronze medalist, world amateur bronze medalist

    Henryk Petrich - Olympic bronze medalist

    Rhoshii Wells - Olympic bronze medalist

    Jean-Paul Mendy - world amateur bronze medalist, 2 x European bronze

    Fought Moorer x 2
    Ariel Hernandez x 4
    Lebziak x 4
    Maske x 2 (think it was even more times than that)
    Tarver x 2
    Torsten May x 2

    Chris Johnson x 3
