    I have to admit I have boxrec' this because I was unsure how tall Saul , but here goes.Floyd - Height - 173 , Reach - 183Canelo - Height - 171, Reach - 179And looking at their fights with Mosley I thought Floyd looked bigger than Mosley , but Canelo looked no bigger than Shane?Maybe over thinking it , but I dont think Canelo is this massive 154 fighter we are told to believe?

    No.

    Bigger in terms of height? Possibly.

    But bigger man? No.

    He weighed 172 lbs against Trout according to HBOs' unofficial scales.

    Floyd has some superior physical attributes such as height and reach but we can't say he'll be the bigger man - that's ******* logic gone crazy! :D

    Dude Canelo normal weight outside the ring is about 176 pound or a light heavyweight. You tell me that you can't see how big Canelo is on fight compare to Mosely?

    Yes he looked heavier, especially in the legs , but I thought that Shane looked broader across the shoulders.Weight is a deceptive thing and doesnt always mean bigger.
