Cotto built a career at 140. He was also too small at JMW yet alone MW. As for the whole Canelo vs Margo/jmm argument as to why Pac loses to Canelo, lol. That’s like saying Canelo is a bigger version of Castillo therefore beats Floyd. Or Margo is a bigger version of maidana. It’s pointless, JMM is JMM, Canelo is Canelo. Canelo can easily be outboxed, B level trout did it ffs and Pac was levels above these guys.
The pac-man that beat the breaks of margarito would beat the canelo that fought mayweather in similar fashion! Quite comfortably!
The current Canelo would do that, I agree. The 152lbs Canelo that Floyd fought would not. I think everyone has this image of the current 160+lbs Canelo, and so yes, this huge Canelo would pummel both Floyd and Pac no doubt. Dont forget that we are talking about the same exact 152 canelo that Floyd fought, and we are talking about the same Pac that fought Margo and broke his eye socket, and was still throwing 800-900+ punches. I know it's hard to believe that this little midget 5-5 asian dude from a third world country is kicking ass and taking names, but he just is/was.
Completely different. They’re both counterpunchers but that’s about it. Canelo is a lot more squared up in stance to start with. Their punch selection is completely different. Canelo uses a lot more head movement for defense. And so on and so on.
This content is protected Floyd has been called is the biggest runner for the last 10 years yet you act so shocked. If floyd fought in UK or anywhere else you don’t think judges would score against him for all that running? Lol.
Fair play to Yarde. He did a LOT better than I thought he would. If he gets the right trainer and experience, he could be a top quality fighter!
Canelo and JMM are better similar. Both counter puncher, both can also fight in the pocket, both masters at throwing the uppercut, both have very fluid combinations, both are excellent at using feints and traps. Obviously they have some differences as they are different people. Canelo has better defense, has a better chin, and body attack.
