    Maybe so. But I'm not sure I believe that GGG is 5 foot 10 1/2 either.

    Triple Duck is half-Korean but he'll look full Korean after the Irishman Canelo gets done beating him up.

    Canelo has the b***s to fight GGG. Believe me, by the end of 2016 he will.

    Canelo 167 - Mosley 164
    Canelo 171 - Lara 166
    Canelo 172 - Trout 171
    Canelo 170 - Angulo 174 or it might be the other way round (some sources say it was this and others say it was Canelo who weighed 174, either way Canelo was 170 minimum.

    GGG is just scared to go up but creating that delusion for his fans makes him seem a lot more fierce than he is. I truly believe that he should look at an Arthur Abraham or maybe a Sakio Bika just to get used to moving up. Ward & Dirrell is out of his league so he might want to position him self to get paid fighting Lil Julio or Froch !!!

    Angulo weighed more, which seemed odd to me because Canelo looked heavier.

    I thought Canelo was 5'7". He doesn't look 5'9" when compared to other fighters. 5'8" looks right.

    Portly Dan said Canelo was 174 and Angulo was 170. Like I said, some sources have Canelo at 174 and others say it was Angulo who was.

    See that sounds right. Showtime tale of the tape put Canelo at 170.

    I'm pretty sure it was Angulo who weighed 174. Angulo weighed 174 against Lara. Canelo looked ripped with not a lot of fat.
