    I can’t think of any.... I find Canelo overrated and a drug cheat.... the only atg he fought was Floyd and he got schooled...

    He can beat ATGs, but only if he can drain his opponent, use clen, buy judges. Otherwise he is just a decent fighter with a good chin.

    Speaks volumes that the only ATG he can mention is a lightweight.

    Canelo isn't anywhere near as good as people make out at 154, I doubt he'd beat Ayub Kalule. He's much better at 160, but he isn't even beating guys like Nunn, Kalambay, Johnson ect.

    He would knockout Sugar Ray Robinson, Marvin Hagler and Carlos Monzon with the first body shot he threw.

    De la Hoya? A semi-shot alcoholic cokehead DLH push a prime Mayweather. A older Mayweather schooled Canelo. I know styles make fight.
    But I tend to believe that Oscar gives Canelo the Tito treatment. Canelo is way slower than Oscar and is not as good as a boxer.
    De La Hoya UD.

    nah not that Oscar, the Oscar that got roached by Hopkins at Middle weight.

    I think canelo roaches him too @ Middle Weight.

    He couldn’t beat a past prime GGG, how the **** could he hope to beat any of the ATGs in their prime?
