    Which fighter or fighters would best prepare Canelo for a style/fighter like Golovkin "IF" he were to fight him?

    Lemieux?
    Stevens?

    Someone in middleweight division? junior middleweight? Who best resembles GGG in either junior middleweight or middleweight division?

    Thor.

    Not Lemieux. Maaaaybe Khytrov.

    Or he could just, you know, stop being a *****.

    If Margarito was still around and somewhat still decent, I would say him.

    You know, a come forward merciless iron chinned beast.

    Canelo doesn't beat any top MWs.

    Nobody. He can't beat GGG no matter what type of training or who ever spars him. That's why he's ducking.

    Derevyanchenko, but he'd probably beat Canelo, so bad idea.

    I say Lemieux over Stevens because Lemieux is more offensive minded and jabs more. If Canelo Lemieux happens, Canelo will get a good simulation of ggg powerful left but only more of it in real life.
