    Didn't Moorer KO every opponent at LHW?

    Canelo probably by stoppage. Moorers resume at light heavyweight is laughable and he had a glass chin to boot.

    Moorer by decapitation or death bludgeoning. And that's no knock on Canelo. I can't think of the 175 ATG that I would bet on with confidence against Moore during his light heavy reign he was that sharp and destructive.

    Canelo fans will admit 168 is Canelo's limit. It's only his haters that sit around dreaming of fights Canelo will lose.

    He was a LtHW titleholder. And AFTER beating Kov, the usual stans said he beat the #1 LtHW. So.... kinda NOT his limit? Sure, he lost to Bivol. Does that mean his limit was 168? He also lost to Floyd, what was his limit then? 153? :lol:

    I could play the same game.

    When Canelo beat Kova the hatestans claimed it was only cause Kova was "over the hill" otherwise Canelo did not belong there.

    So make up your mind Jr. Which side of the fence do you stand on?

    That's not my mind. Just telling you what the shadows and Isals said. What did you think? Kov was shot or Canelo does not belong there?

    For me, Kov looked bad before Canelo. They also fought just over a month after Kov's last fight. They threw money at Kov and put him in the ring ASAP to weight hop a belt. Cheap tactic. Might as well have bought it.

    Trying to think about it with MM still a light heavy weight and canelo as a miniature Bert Cooper, never know what can happen, but nah that doesn’t fly. Young Moorer puts it on him, despite some pesky early rounds from the mentally stronger ginger. I loved Moorer, but he could go life and death with anybody it seemed like sometimes.
