    Murray and Geale would be interesting fights. Canelo probably wins, but he wouldn't dominate them like Golovkin did....and Rosado would make it the distance versus Canelo. Lose just about every round, but he'd make it to the finish line.

    I agree as well. Murray is durable nothing more.

    you're saying canelo had trouble with trout, mayweather and lara therefore he can't execute a game plan or adapt to a difficult style? you tryna compare murray and macklin to floyd and lara?

    Mack is about shot. Rosados gonna be a tough out, but like eveyrone who beats him, Canelo would cut him to ribbons, but I wouldnt make Canelo more than a 55/45 favorite over Geale, and no version of Canelo, at least none that have shown themselves as of yet, beat Murray.

    This aint bringing the 135lb Josesito Lopez up 30 lbs....this is a GIANT MW, and would be the first guy Canelo fought his own size. :nono

    Canelo fights mostly in spurts and mostly mid to long range, Murray is a big, solid middleweight with a tight guard. He looked durable vs a fading Maravilla that was mostly throwing pitty patty punches thru out the fight. Recently, Canelo is going back to his roots and sitting on his punches more, being more of a powerpuncher than boxing. I don't think he matches GGG powerwise, but he can still do serious damage putting punches together. Murray would actually be a good test for Canelo. I agree he'd beat them too, but not as easily as GGG. He's not there yet.

    I think they all have a chance to beat Canelo...Canelo is not THAT good. I want to see Saul Alvarez vs Gabriel Rosado!

    152 canelo puts PAC in a coma, FACT!

    Well yea, especially if Murray turns out to be damaged goods. For Canelo to reach his full potential, he needs to not fight stiff, he has almost no head/upperbody movement, and the other thing is learning to infight/pressure correctly. Robert Garcia helped Maidana with certain issues and helped tremendously, if he could do that with Canelo, he'd be a real threat to anyone. But as of right now, Canelo should humble Murray.

    Trout is pretty useless by comparison, he's a glass-packer who almost got KO'd by Daniel Dawson.

    As for Canelo he's a natural LHW who is scared to move to 160, he can't even fight 3 minutes a round.

    I disagree completely. For one thing, Canelo is a stocky 154 pound fighter, he'd be an undersized Middleweight. Secondly, Canelo doesn't cut the ring off like GGG (forget about the power disparity). Canelo hasn't shown great stamina either (although it could be because he drains himself). I also think he is easier to hit than GGG.

    Now could Canelo beat those guys? Sure, but I don't think he has an easy time with any of them (except for maybe Adama).
