How would Canelo get on vs these 168lbs World Champions?

Benn`s KO ratio wasn`t very good at 168.

 

Canelo is far harder to hit than G-man was and his body punches are very good.

 

I feel Calzaghe would have had the best chance of beating Canelo.

 

What was it? I can still remember him scoring some significant KOs at that weight, most notably Gerald McClellan.

Indeed I would submit that the aforementioned knockout surpasses any stoppage Canelo has recorded at 168 by a country mile.

 

I meant it more as even if he gets dropped.
Canelo might well land a nice counter early and he can knock Calzaghe down. But he won’t keep him down.
Froch got hit a lot more than Calzaghe. So while he went down a few times he ate a lot more shots.
I didn’t pick Froch to win although he could....but it would not be anywhere near certain
Calzaghe would not lose to Canelo

 

Jones-lose
Toney- lose
Benn-win
Eubank-win
Calzaghe-win
Froch-win
Kessler- win
Ward-lose
Ottke-mauling win

 

Canelo vs toney would be interesting. It also could be a boring fight but I can see canelo pulling a win. Both chins are iron as well.

 

Canelo v Benn or Froch is mouth watering. Superb fights.

 

Benn wouldnt beat Canelo, skill level is too wide, Canelo also has a far far better chin

 

Certainly possible.

 

You think Canelo knocks out Roy Jones and Nigel Benn, but could only beat Froch on points?

Does that mean you think prime Froch beats prime Jones?

I know styles make fights and what not, but that is kind of the inference.

 

I think Prime Jones would land too much on Froch, I think Canelo is incredibly skilful at parrying punches and it would cause RJJ some real problems and with the power demonstrated would catch him. Styles make fights as you have said.

 

He would lose to the American fighters
