    Many of his fans claim he carried Mungia. I'm not using triangle theory. It's a fact his wins are aging poorly at 168. When your opponents you went the distance with get knocked out quickly in their next fight, thats bad for a resume. You disagree?

    Love it when these dumb idiots get turned around in the ring from their bluster

    Not necessarily no. Canelo has had both good and bad wins at 168. He's definitely not invincible, but he's not known for his knockout power either. He's never been a power puncher, so the comparison doesn't really work IMO. It's driven by people who don't like him, whose judgment gets clouded because they have a vendetta against him as a person. The same types of people who discredit Anthony Joshua's entire career because he said something that hurt their feelings on Instagram in 2017.

    Or Sheeraz could have more power than previously thought. He looked like he was feeling Sheeraz's shots quite a lot.

    Canelo's legs are gone. He has cement feet. You need movement and flexibility to pivot and be able to KO naturally bigger opponents. Canelo doesnt have that anymore.

    Bud is going to light him up

    and John Ruiz seriously hurt Evander Holyfield with one right hand, doesn’t mean John Ruiz is Mike Tyson. Terrible example you made.

    Berlanga should fight Munguía next since they both suffered KOs after fighting Canelo

    He was never a crazy puncher like someone like Beterbiev, but he definitely still had power, especially at his lower weight classes. His counters were nothing to be sniffed at. Its only since he has moved up to super middle that they have really slowed down, him having something like 5 KOs in ~20 fights.

    I was wrong about Hamzah, he stepped it up against Berlanga who seemed clueless as how to handle the taller mans jab and boxing ability.
    The 168 pound division seems a much more comfortable fit for Hamzah.
