    Arturo Gatti?:hey All jokes aside Canelo is like a Baldomir but with a little more power and a tad better boxing skills! Both equal plodders/robots.

    Not at all. Tito had *****, he wanted the best (Hopkins) and didn't ask for crazy demands even though he was the A side.

    Canelo is running from GGG.

    Hell no. Tito is the better boxer, more accurate and knew how to set up his punches.

    I loved watching Tito fight. He always brought it and he would fight anyone. Tito was the real deal, not a Pollo. And his KOs were electrifying.

    Agreed!
    Canelo is more defensive minded.

    Head to head I would favor Tito, simply because his conditioning level was second to none while Canelo has had issues with stamina and not being able to take it to the next level late in fights.
