    styles make fights.

    and please, stop with the "canelo would blow him out" statements.

    exactly who has the 5'7" canelito blown out at 154 that came to fight?

    b-level Rhodes(previously ko'd twice) -12 rounds.
    shot mosley(barely beat a career jww cano in his next fight) - 12 rounds.
    trout- 12 rounds

    canelito is not "blowing out" any legit contenders.

    "blowing out" is what prime mike Tyson did.


    canelito threw everything except the kitchen sink at mosely and shane was nowhere near getting stopped.

    Canelo vs 3G, Canelo vs Martinez/Jr @ 160 and Canelo vs Lara @ 154 would be some true tests for Canelo.

    I think the Canelo vs Martinez and Jr fights might happen in the near future.

    Once again, we need to stop acting as if Floyd is virtually impossible to touch . People act as if its going to take an act of God to hit him . Lets not be silly now

    Doesn't matter how good defensively he or anybody else is , hes still human , he can be caught and he can be hurt. We all know he's been visibly hurt before . Sugar nearly ended their fight with the very first punch he threw at Floyd . Therefore it can happen again

    It can happen but the percentage is very small and insignificant.

    Floyd looks beatable and lots of fighters thought that they can beat Floyd but when they finally got into the ring with him, they saw that is quite difficult to do it.


    Right now in terms of style, skills and talent I think if guys like Rigo, Ward and maybe Lara would be naturally 147'ers, with their skills, high boxing IQs and styles would have a good chance in beating Floyd. Actually the fight with Lara could happen cuz he's a jr MW but I highly doubt about that.
    :yep

    I think Canelo will do a little better than Cotto.

    I expect a Cotto type effort, nothing more
