    Aj stands no chance against the monster that is Canelo Alvarez. Glass chin, no heart, no gas, weak resume, mentally fragile. He's a protected fighter while Canelo is the best fighter of this era.

    People seem to forget Canelo is sparring Heavyweights and has an iron chin. He will wear Joshua down and stop him in the later rounds. The bodywork will be too much

    I don't hate AJ at all, I just think his flaws as a fighter are visible.

    Flaws enough to be beaten by a 5’7 guy?

    I don't think even Roid HW Canelo could truly hurt or KO him, out of his strike zone.
    But honestly, Canelo is hard to hit clean even for MWs/SMWs who have faster hands and reflexes than Joshua. It's not impossible that Canelo runs and slips around for 12 rounds and avoids getting KO'd, landing some flashy ineffective combos here and there. If the ref is on his side and stops inside fighting so Canelo can't be easily mauled, he can stay on the run.

    In that case, he just might get a decision if he lasts the distance. Sounds crazy, but based on the notion you need a KO to win, Canelo could come away with the victory. Don't get me wrong, no other MW/SMW could do this and be given the victory if they fought that defensive. But Canelo has special rules. You have to give him a shot here based on the rigged circumstances.

    Well at the end of the day Canelo will be way greater than AJ will ever be.

    Canelo doesn't waste time when he lands in a new division. He'll skip over hyped up bodybuilder/roadman AJ and go straight for Lovejoy.
