    The Duran who beat Barkley vs Canelo who lost and won against GGG 1-2. Who takes it?

    Canelo UD unfortunately because I love Duran. Barkley actually fought a hell of a fight, but Canelo wouldn’t be as hittable. Both would be counterpunching and I’d give the advantage to the younger man.

    Duran is just a better fighter than Canelo so he wins.

    Canelo lacks aggressivenes. It's gonna be a chess match where both of them show their tricks and Duran is gonna bust him up

    Canelo lacks aggressiveness? I don't see that.

    Duran was so good but Canelo has a size advantage. It’s a hard one to decide because Duran was so crafty and hard to hit. The Canelo who was schooled by Bivol looked beatable but I’m going with Canelo. He’s big and roided to the gills. Plus the judges seem to mysteriously favor him. UD Canelo.

    True, but can he beat the referee and the 3 judges also?

    He couldn't KO 40 year old GGG who just came in for the payday and was just looking to survive. He went full distance with bunch of fighters that he should have gotten out of there. He's no true great

    Even that 40 year old GGG beats Duran.
    Canelo beats the Duran that Barkley faced by KO.

    Now the Duran that faced Marvin Hagler was still agile enough reflexively to give Canelo a true fight, but I think even that Duran loses to Canelo.
