Roy just might stop him - despite relatively weak competition, I really like Canelo's skills, but Roy at 168 lbs was levels above.
Duran showed Hagler things - I don't think Canelo's in Hagler's league, but I do think Hagler contending with a heavier fighter that is skilled...
It's at 168 lbs - Hagler was a lean, optimum fighter, coming in under 160 lbs at the weigh in. Hagler didn't fight at 175 lbs and whilst Hagler...

It's very easy to think of defensive fighters as being weak, but there's ample evidence that Pernell was a busy, physically capable fighter....
That's a point. You can never question the chin of a man with a record like Ray's, especially when he's fighting a much larger man. Often,...
It's like people forget that Ray gave up massive weight to meet La Motta. La Motta was a much bigger and stronger man and Ray still took the series.
