I think Canelo Beats everybody at 154 and 160 not named Floyd Mayweather.

    I think Canelo is a much better better boxer than most ppl on the site that I have read give him credit for. After watching many fights of his and GGG's. I honestly think he's a better boxer and harder puncher than GGG. I also think he knocks out Maravilla. It may sound crazy to some but does anybody else see what Im seeing with Canelo?

    Indeed. I think you are quite correct in believing that it may sound crazy to some. Including me.

    Who the hell knows, his 2nd best win is a shot, undersized Mosley. He should start by beating some SWW contenders. Lara would love to fight him, so would Molina, Vanes, Andrade etc.

    I think if Canelo can hit you then he beats you. I dont see anyone other than Floyd being able to not get hit by Canelo. Lara is slick but he can get hit. GGG is good but I think he's a lil overated at this point and I dont see any of his opponents on Trouts level. Even Maravilla at this point in his couldnt avoid Canelo for 12 rounds imo.

    The afore mentioned GGG as a dead cert. I'll reserve judgement on Maravilla till his comeback. Most likely Quillin. Murray almost certainly. Geale, Barker, at least 50/50. I'll have to see how Mack's weathered his storms but probably he's around 50/50 too.

    There's even a couple at 154 I think could stretch him.

    Floyd did get hit by 'Nelo, so did Trout. He's got a solid average KO rate but has been pretty carefully matched. Where do you get the idea that he's packin' bombs? TBH he only scraped past Trout.

    I'd say he's solid, but careful promotion and matchmaking have perhaps made him seem more than he is.

    I dont think He hit mayweather clean up top all fight with a power shot. he had a couple grazing hooks but thats about it. Trout got dropped... And Trout is hard to hit clean up top beacuse his length and distance control. Its not that Canelo is packing bombs but he has GREAT timing and studies his oppponents in fight well. He feints alot and has a high ring IQ. I dont see a higher ring IQ than his other than PBF and SOG. His technique and control is VERY good.

    Yes, I see, a quick flick through your old posts reveals the source of your delusion.

    Look, yes, it was a decent win for Floyd, but exactly what everyone expected. Floyd is still a great fighter , possibly the greatest of the era, but 'Nelo is just not that massive of a win. OK

    You honestly have a post in your history saying that only Floyd and 'Dre Ward can beat 'Nelo?:patsch

    Can we stop this silliness already..?
