    Canelo maybe faster than a 39 year old McCallum but he never was and never will be a better body puncher. Canelo probably would beat Castro but I doubt Gonzalez especially since he was a very large lightheavyweight and Canelo only fought once at 168 against a lesser titleholder. Enjoy that island you have all by yourself.

    Canelo's definitely not as smart, either.

    Roy wasn`t landing much against McCallum early on in their bout and the crowd even started booing at one point.

    Canelo`s very savvy in the ring and far smarter than Gonzales and Castro ever were.

    Oh I agree. I meant in relation to McCallum.

    Roy took some time to get started, but it's not like we're talking about a close fight here. We're talking about basically a shutout where Mike hardly landed a telling blow.
