    I get the impression that's what many think.

    Even Erik Morales used his underrated skills quite often.

    Yeah I can see Chavez/Canelo comparison except I think Canelo is better defensively and Chavez had better output and stamina.

    Very annoying term to describe a wide variety of styles used by Mexican fighters. It’s actually an insult to me.

    Canelo is a plodding bum

    who pretended he wasn't hurt on the ropes and that Bivol wasn't battering him

    He’s not the classic come forward in a straight line throwing punches type of Mexican fighter that are seen routinely on fight casts. He’s far more skilled than that.
