    Canelo's skill and accuracy vs Beterbiev's pressure and brute strength.

    51/49 to Canelo

    It would be dope
    50/50 fight

    but I full expect Señor Ginger to stack the Deck…
    :deal: All depends if Beterbiev concedes to Nélo’s demands
    Aka - sells them titles for the “PeyDey”

    If Clenelo can wait until 2023 he has a chance to win, however a prime Beterbiev would seriously hurt Clenelo BAD.

    To be honest beterbiev does have a lot of flaws and at times he is very basic. I can definitely see Canelo winning. However Canelo does not fight big punchers so it will not happen

    He needs to fight bivol first, these two are avoiding each other while waiting for handouts from canelo. People need to start calling them out for their bull****

    I wonder how Canelo will handle Beterbiev's power? Surely, Beterbiev hits slightly harder than GGG

    Canelo seems a more complete fighter these days with phenomenal defense.

    It's been over 4 years since they both became LHW champions. The fact that they don't even talk about fighting each other is borderline disturbing.
