Canelo Alvarez vs. Sumbu Kalambay at 160

Mike is better than GGG in my opinion, based on ability and resume. And the 2nd GGG-Canelo fight could have gone either way.

 

I have alot of respect for Kalambay and would favor him to beat canelo but seeing people picking him to sweep every round against canelo is pretty puzzling. Canelo has proved himself to be a very formidable middle weight and is no walk in the park for a guy like Kalambay

 

Well, looking at how Canelo did against Lara and Trout, it is safe to say Nunn would be the easy winner against Canelo. If you still insist on this fluke Nunn KO win, it would onyl be fair to bring up how Floyd gave Canelo a boxing lesson.

 

Greater pfp as a 154 only.

 

LOL so now Nunn > Canelo

Yeah, ok, that's enough BF24 for me for today

 

Yes. Nunn was better than Canelo.

You'll see it when you watch them.

 

So do you think he'd do it again?

 

The two opponents who gave Canelo the most trouble were Mayweather and Lara - slick clever boxers and Kalambay was bigger and stronger than both with skills easily as good as Lara. Kalambay for me has one of the most impressive MW resumes of the last 40 years, wins over McCallum, Barkley, Graham x2, Collins and DeWitt all of whom were in their prime, such an overlooked fighter.
In a fair fight with a proper training camp at 160 Kalambay wins a decision but in reality is that how it would go down ?? Or would there be catchweight BS, re-hydration clauses, short training camps and crooked judges ??

 

Oh yeah, Nunn beats Canelo's ass easy. Based on the Lara and Trout fights.. Do not forget that Canelo is a perfectly managed fighter: he gets all the close calls and fights a lot of guys just at the right moment.

 

Why would he have to do it exactly same again to prove it not a "fluke" ?

 

I saw Nunn get walked down and kayoed which is what Canelo did to his last opponent. Yes, I’d pick Nunn, but he’d have to stay focused and he wouldn’t ko **** in one round.

 

I don't think he does. That's just the easiest way IMO of wording the question.

I do think Nunn winning early is a fluke result. I actually can't see how anyome would argue against that. An early KO for either was completely unlikely.

 

Nunn was at his absolute peak for that fight.
And the way I see it Kalambay underperformed by giving him that free shot like that.

 

What are you kidding me? Graham was a phenomenal boxer.
He didn't lose for almost 11 years.

 

Nunn would stop Canelo. Watch him vs Tate.
Hell you can waych him vs Roldan.
Too much speed. 6'3 southpaw.
Canelo has never seen anything like Nunn.
