    Tito takes his head clean off with that savage left hook from hell and shortly afterwards the American Meteor Society are inundated with reports of a massive ginger meteorite shooting across the night sky at breakneck speed.

    Oh wait a mo.. I forgot, what with it being Clenelo and all, that it would obviously have to be a way past prime Tito.

    Clenelo WUD Shot Tito

    Canelo wins. GGG would have KO'd Tito in my opinion.

    Tough call. Tito had stamina for days and canelo fights in bursts. Tito actually got stronger as fights went on. I think his seek and destroy style and constant stalking would bother canelo and win him a decision.

    I think ggg definitely would have ko'd tito as well. I wouldn't say that means canelo wins though.

    You wont find a bigger Tito fan on this board than me but Canelo knocks Tito out. The defense, chin and size eventually proves too much for Tito to overcome. Titos peak was at 154 and his power did not carry above that. Canelo is a tank and although the shorter man hes the stronger man and I dont think Tito could hurt Canelo at 160. If GGG couldn't do it now way Tito does. Canelo KO 7

    Why 160? Tito was a monster at 154.

    The most likely scenario would be Canelo vs Tito at 160 y/o

    The Canelo that fought at 154 gets KOd by William Joppy Tito. But thats not the best version of Canelo, not by a long shot.

    For sure but I had a far from the best version of GGG beating the best version of Clenelo x 2 and a 160 Tito on Clen's ''meat'' just might do what he'd do to him at 154 up at 160 too.

    Well now you're going into some unknowable variables but imho, no. Tito was a shell of himself above 154 and he was too one dimensional too get away with what his power allowed him to get away with at 154 and under.

    Tito is 3-3 above 154. Granted the losses all came against excellent fighters, but even though his vaunted power was still vicious up at 160, it was even more so at 154 and 147 and he was much a more formidable force at those weights.
