    Crawford, Spence, and Bradley walk around 180-190 as well. I can easily see Clenelo walking around at 200+ as he's much thicker than those guys.

    He does, in all honesty seem to be on something. He is a bigger puncher at 168lbs than he was at 154lbs where he was a weight bully. He seems to have that Lance Armstrong thing going on. It must really affect his mind when, while taking these things he still gets his a## kicked. If his old Boogeyman GGG whips him at 40 years old, then Canelo will be mentally ruined. Don't think it can't happen, GGG'S coming for him.

    If GGG fought and KOED plant and Saunders you would definitely be calling them bums today. You know its true.

    Brook does, but he has those insane genetics where he get shredded too.

    However he is not that wide or thick like Canelo so he does not have the "natural" size/strength over opponents beyond a certain weight limit.

    Dude is definitely shredded. I think he should have stayed at 154lbs though.

    They are real dangerous fights for Canelo.

    Stylistically Lil g is a more predictable fight for Canelo. Lil g is tough but very predictable. David Benaividez the most dangerous fight for Canelo as he could conceivably get stopped or battered.

    Canelo has challenged himself on several occasions, but he bit off more than he can chew against Bivol. Hes still a great fighter, and far from a bum but as a Canelo fan i cannot defend him on that one.

    As much as I dislike all the smoke and mirrors surrounding Canelo's career, he is still a bona fide ATG and legend.

    Canelo trying to make himself a hero lol. He’s not some small guy, he’s coming into the ring 180+. Doubt he could even make 160 any more, or if he did he’d look like ****ing death and his performance would suffer. He’s a big, thick boy now

    How many champions has Chocolatito fought? 21 world title fights 18-3 with two of those losses being robberies. He should be 20-1 in world title fights with a 53-1 record in his fourth weight class.
