    Mosley was a good step up. Remember, this guy just fought the #1 ranked p4p fighter in his last fight. Good win for Canelo no question.

    He's got good combinations, good handspeed, bad footwork, GOOD chin, good power. He's exciting and young. Sky is the limit for Canelo.

    I used to think he was pure hype but I've changed my mind.

    He will go down as the greatest white ginger mexican of all time.

    Well, he's not a complete fraud. He's a good fighter.

    Is he as good as his hype though? Hell no.

    Are you?

    Is he being hyped the next FLoyd, the next Chavez, the next Cotto?

    You seem to think you know.

    I like his patience and poise for such a young dude...doesn't waste to many, usually nicely balanced.

    Can't help but think that might work against him at some point if he is a little to patient.
