    Canelo is in his own level. There may be A level fighters between 160-168, but he's A++.

    I can't see anyone beating him. I'd give Jermall Charlo the best chance at touching him.

    That wasn't the current Canelo. That was Canelo 1.0, the "current" version is Canelo 3.0

    Canelo has pretty much carried the sport of boxing for the last few years to be honest. He is the only global superstar at the minute. I can't see anyone beating him in the next 5-6 years

    Canelo was eating GGG's jab like mexican beef.

    Golovkin was eating Canelo power counters like he was eating beshbarmak.

    Power punches > Jabs

    Being Marvin Hagler would be a great way to beat Canelo, there aren't many of him around though!

    I don't know about that. Would like to see him against a Lara/May type again. But there's no one out there like that.

    An elite outboxer would give him fits. Saunders had success and I wouldn't call him one. Canelo is very selective about who he faces and when.

    Last time I checked the top fighters between 160-175 are even more selective. facts

    He did ok for a bit. But I don't consider him as slick as those other guys.

    Most fighters above 154 aren't very slick. The bigger you are the slower you get.
