    He is a hybrid
    Power puncher / Boxer
    After each victory or loss.
    His experience shapes His style
    He is ever evolving.
    Will be interesting how he adapts his style to the last leg of his career.

    Very skilled brawler. Happy to mix it up but to be technically aware at the same time.

    At this point Canelo is a come forward pot-shotter. He rarely throws combinations but is defensively responsible and picks his shots well

    Don’t get knocked out and wait for the score cards to be read.

    Short stocky counter power puncher with a granite chin and matrix like head movement. Footwork and foot speed are his only human traits.

    A textbook counterpuncher who used to be exciting to watch up until GGG 2.
