An era where its not modern heavyweights but super duper heavyweights, hmmmmm. I think Canelo knocks them all out! Hes that ****ing good!
Usyk holds most of the belts and he's not a "super duper heavyweight", is he? Andy Rice Pudding Jr held most of the belts and he's really under 6' and fat s hell. Alvarez would not the stuffing out of Andy Rice Pudding Jr ffs. One would have to favour Alvarez over the likes of Dillian Whyte (although admittedly I am his biggest fan) and Anthony Joshua.
Weight classes exist in boxing for a reason, the punches that molina hit babic last week that stunned him would knock canelita out.
Steady on. Let's see if he can go up to 175 and overcome Beterbiev or Bivol 1st. That's a big ask. If he can properly clean out LH then it becomes a legitimate discussion to determine if he could tackle someone at cruiser - but at that weight he is going to get hurt, and his current strategy wouldn't hold as much water - hell I think he might have to rethink that strategy against Artur - even if Artur is pushing 37/38 if/when they fight.
Highest i can see him go uz 190 catch weight cruiser title. But then again dosnent wbc currently have 190 division? Could well become 5 weight champ. then ir he can lure bridge weight champ to 191 lbs he can become 6 weight champ
Canelo started his career at 147 unlike rjj so he is still naturally smaller. I think light heavy or probably cruiser is his limit
I can't think of a top 6'9'' heavyweight now. Is there one? Tyson Fury, probably the tallest, is not over 202cm - 6'7.5" Your point is completely irrelevant, regardless. You bring up these "super duper" heavyweights, as if a minimum height threshold makes up, in part, the necessary fulfillments of a successful heavyweight. I've just given you a recent example in Rice Pudding Jr that completely renders that argument a falsehood.
Considering the fact that Usyk in not only bigger, but is LIGHT YEARS ahead of Caleb Plant or BJS in terms of boxing skills, both offensively and defensively, I think there's no reason for Canelo to move up as high.
