Carlos Monzon vs Saul "Canelo" Alvarez At MW

After dishing out a deceptively one-sided beating, Monzon closes the show, forcing a mercy stoppage of Canelo, in the latter stages of the bout.

 

Monzon stops him in 6.. He had the leverage to land his punch where GGG was about strength and taking over. Canelo is being a bit overrated. He has a great resume.

 

Good script for a fiction movie.
Escopeta wins but it would not be a walk in the park

 

I thought Canelo’s career was a movie script.

 

Monzon beats him clearly on points, good luck with the decision afterwards!

 

A stroll in the park it might not be, but I wouldn't expect it to take much more than a brisk walk, on the part of Monzon.

 

If Canelo has the promoters and judges in his corner, Canelo via SD or Draw.

Monzon didn't hit hard enough to take Canelo out with one or two big shots. Canelo has good defense, better hand speed, and is a master counter guy. Unlike Monzon, he jumped up in class. This would be fight.

 

He literally beat a better version of Canelo handedly in his last fight. There's no case for Canelo winning this aside from "ugh ugh *wanks* Modern is better"

 

Actually all this is true

 

It is what you say. I think that it is a bull****

 

I doubt you've seen much Valdez then.

 

Canelo is probably better h2h fighter than Rodrigo Valdez yes.

 

No, absolutely not.

 

And yet, I would back Benvenuti, Griffith, Briscoe and Valdes to be beat Alvarez.
