    De Valle was a big aggressive southpaw LHW with a long reach. I just think Canelo would have an extremely hard time countering anything. It would look like the Toney fight just more one sided imo.

    I think it would be far more competitive than most here seem to be indicating.

    If Floyd can whip Clownelo, RJJ does it even more violently.

    a washed up drained Kovalev was outboxing Clenelo pretty decisively, Roid Jones would have had a field day against Clenelo.

    Jones could box cleanly if he felt like it. A 5' 7" counterpuncher lacking fast feet is not going to trouble him.

    Not denying it, but I recall saying it a while back and felt like no one had ever used it. Not that it matters, lol. It's a great troll surname.

    Seriously, Rummy ?

    Roy is bigger, faster and hits much harder than Floyd.

    It would be a massacre...Roy could pick the round to end things, or just clown Canelo for twelve (or fifteen ) rounds.
