    Beterbiev is nowhere near as skilled as Golovkin.

    Canelo is an awesome fighter, no doubt. I see him beating Beterbiev. Say what you like about Canelo, I know there has been contentious issues surrounding his career, but he steps up and takes the challenges on. If he does face Beterbiev, he deserves all the accolades as he is the man willing to put it on the line.

    If he does in 2022 then props to him

    Otherwise, quite rightly, he'll be accused of ageing Beterbiev out.

    Might not have been enough at 160, but at 175? Canelo's never tasted power like this , Beterbiev's power will be plenty. He'll come straight at Canelo and Canelo will have to move away or stand his ground and exchange I don't look for Canelo to seek out Beterbiev next year at all. And it sure ain't because he thinks he'd win easy

    First undisputed champ in super middle yes but not in Mexican history.

    This version of Beterbiev is beatable but still very dangerous. No way Canelo fights him without super restrictive (and probably confidential) weight draining max hydration clauses. Canelo definitely wins rounds but AB is still a brute and a very dangerous fighter. Those body shots he throws are so damaging. I don’t see any smaller guy standing up to them. Landing them on Canelo is another matter. Would rather see Bivol Canelo but this will do.

    What about Joe Calzaghe?
    Beterbiev vs Canelo would be a helluva fight 2022. Not when Beterbiev was 47 years old.

    Whhooaaa Now come on man.

    The only people putting Canelo in hypethetical fights with Heavy's is your close friends. No one else is coming up with these stupid hypertheticals.

    Also Canelo's previous form is why he get's smoke of other people. He DID wait for GGG to slow down and make the excuse he wasn't big enough for middle despite now going upto Cruiser.

    He will not fight Beterbiev for at least 18 months. I will put money down that's how confident I am.

    Look if he fights Bivol and Beterbiev in 2022 win or lose I will bow down to you and your clan of nut huggers and give you and Ginger all the credit in the world apologising to all of your for doubting your superior boxing knowledge...................

    but that won't happen.

    If he was confident he would have fought him or Bivol after beating Krusher. he didn't thoough he still keep busy and see what other belts can be mopped up in the interim. As of NOW Beterbiev would wreck Ginger.

    Bivol and Beterbiev? Why dont you stop talking about Canelo fighting those guys and turn your attention towards Bivol and Beterbiev fighting eachother.

    My old friend deflection.....Where have you been?

    Yes it would be nice if those two fought but no one is stating that there ATG Super GOAT.

    Why didn't he take them out straight after Krusher? Then he would have cleared out two divisions and really put himself up there for doing the same in the 4 belt era. That would have been a great achievement. No one on here would be able to say anything other than well done.
