    If i was his management i would not rush him in the Ring against guys like
    Pacquiao, Mayweather or Cotto just yet i would build up to that.

    I feel he is 4 fights and 2 years away from that.

    So if its me i would say these are the next 3 fights for him.

    Yuri Foreman
    Pawel Wolak
    Vanes Martirosyan


    Then Cotto or Mayweather or Pacman.

    seems to me like canelo dominated every minute of every single ****ing round against hatton.........

    I like Canelo a bunch, but I think he is at minimum somewhat limited. I really think he's going to have real problems knocking out real fighters at 154. (I do not consider this TKO of Rhodes tonight to be legit because I do not think Rhodes was really hurt.)
    Secondly, I believe he is more than a little chinny. Jose Cotto hurt him when Cotto was fighting above his weight class and Jose's body looked like he was retired.
    Thirdly, Canelo can sort of make you miss when you are in front of him, but only sometimes. He can be hit.
    Also his feet seem kind of slow to me and I really am not impressed with his handspeed.
    So I guess they need to keep matching up with guys who don't have real power and are not great boxers.
    He certainly throws a variety of impressive looking shots, especially uppercuts with both hands I do believe he can improve his footwork, and his power may improve as he gets his full grown man strength. But I think he will probably
    I llike him but I don't think he is special.
