    I think Canelo is freak of nature and physical phenomenon. He started his career as 140 lbs and now he is thinking a fight at 200 lbs! There are 60 lbs ****ing difference here! Canelo's body frame looks limitless. He is built like Mike Tyson or Sam Langford imo. You don't have to be Roy Jones to be freak of nature.

    Thoughts?

    I don't think his body frame looks limitless at all. He looks filled out close to his limit right now, really. In terms of lean mass that would be advantage in boxing. He's making 168 pounds.
    A "limitless" body frame would be a really tall person with wide shoulders and wide rib cage.

    hes gonna be much slower, relative to where he is right now. but still fast enough to match a cruiser. he will be matching his skill vs makabus strength. he will utilize movement and get makabu to walk into his shots. move to his weak side and attack from there. if he can avoid shots the deplete him, cause this guy has the strength to do it, he can outpoint him. if he takes the shots the average cw takes in a fight, he probably gets stopped late.

    Its not totally unusual , Guillermo Jones started as a WW & ended at HW.. Toney.. Hearns.. Pazienza.. Barkley etc.. all rose through the weights.. Canelo is short but he's built like a tank and I suspect he's weighed close to 190lbs for years.. ive been watching Makabu & apart from size there is literally no advantage he has on Canelo.. in every other area the ginger is vastly superior… It will be interesting to see how much he slows at the weight tho ..

    Clenelo is a known drug cheat
    He lost to GGG twice
    He lost to Erislandy Lara
    but he is lauded as the p4p number one

    In context I would say no plenty have moved up the divisions. He is limited by height I think cruiser is doable for him but much higher his gas tank and general mobility is going to suffer.

    Not of nature, but a freak for sure.

    Yeah he is PED's or not you still need to be a savage and a great fighter to do the things he has done.
