    Monzon would squash him like a bug

    Monzon batters and stops Canelo in 9, only to lose a SD.

    Monzon dissects him like a bug in biology class then puts him to sleep with a right.

    Hideous match -up for Canelo but i don't see it as any from of destruction. Canelo is durable and has elite level defense , especially to 1-2 punches down the pipe. He'd just get drawn forward and schooled for every round

    After reading all the above, I have to agree with most of it.
    I don't care what canelo has as one mentioned, he gets beaten down in this one by the #1 or 2 best at this weight of all time.

    Depends since Oscar would only let Canelo fight a 36 year old Monzon at a catch weight of 157 or so .. that said , Canelo is very tough, can fight, is very fast ... I like Monzon in a tough 15 round decision ..

    This would be video proof that Monzon really did beat on women.
