    Hellz yes...

    Good Match up for a 20 year old... Top 10 Light Middle weight. If he wins, he would have definitely earned the right to keep his paper belt.

    The other guy, is a good tall boxer, with good power... basically a bigger version of M Hatton.. jaja IMO of course.

    for anyone who doesnt know who rhodes is- he is a good boxer with power in both hands he is about 5 feet9/10 in height, he fights with his hand relatively low(comes from same gym as Naseem hamed) and is a switch hitter-and is undefeated in Light middleweight. was a good prospect labelled as a future champ but lost his way but came down to JR MW and is on a decent run, euro champ, beat jamie moore in a fight of the year contender

    Rhodes is a perfect opponent and good test for Canelo before he jumps to the next level of the Cottos,Angulos,Williams.... Canelo will beat Rhodes but he should not take him lightly and needs to tighten up his defense in this one.

    I think Canelo stops Rhodes in the mid rounds but Rhodes will be game and test him.
