    Caldwell has had a bit of a resurgence round here.

    Can he continue this resurgence and beat the sharp Canizales?

    15 x 3 minute rounds

    Canizales mid-late round stoppage.

    The reason being I believe Orlando will hit Johnny more times.

    Canizales late stoppage.

    The reasoning being I believe Johnny will hit Orlando fewer times.

    Orlando was more of a tachtician than a kayo artist. he probably would come out with a UD victory. behind a steady jab & good boxing ability...

    Johnny was tough but I really like Canizales here. Orlando was such a beautiful boxer and would exploit Johnny's straight up British style taught in Ireland and England at the time. I see Canizales having little trouble for a 13th or 14th round stoppage.

    Caldwell was pretty good, but I like Orlando in this one.....Canizales had the ability to outbox Johnny, with his timing, great footwork and defensive skills.....
    Caldwell was good, but Orlando is simply the better fighter in all aspects...

    Canizales by decision, UD - good fight

    I think Johnny is unlucky here in that all his filmed fights are losing efforts. No way does Canizales outclass him. It's a tough fight for both fighters, both finishing the fight banged up. I'll take Canizales on points.

    Canizales, vast of array of punches sees him win the rounds, competitive decision.
