    The cross dressing coke head is wrong [again].

    The second biggest fight that could be made in boxing right now is either Pacquiao Alvarez or Alvarez Chavez. Both of these fights do better numbers on Cinco de Mayo than Cotto Alvarez - EASY...

    Chavez would brutally smash the **** out of Canelo, and I say that as a Canelo fan.
    But no one will agree with me:verysad

    Not if this fight happened @ 160. Alvarez would be too much for Chavez at middleweight, IMO...

    I think Alvarez would win, but Alvarez Chavez would definitely be a fight I'd like to see. Though Saul might want to stay at 154 for a while longer, in case Mayweather is interested in a rematch. (of course with him moving to HBO that might be harder now)

    Chavez has 4 inches on Canelo and would come in 30 pounds heavier unless they have strict rehydration limit, even then I doubt Canelo's punches would affect Chavez in the least no matter what he weighed, Chavez' constant pressure would cause Canelo to gas worse than he usually does, the fight would end up looking similar to Cotto Margarito, Canelo would dominate Julio with counters while in retreat, until he tires and Chavez takes over and stops him around the 10th.

    That's possible, but it could also resemble something like the first 11 rounds of Martinez - Chavez. Where Canelo shows off his boxing skills and hits without getting hit. It would really depend on what kind of shape Chavez is in. Chavez has a habit of being super-defensive and losing rounds repeatedly.

    Manny wouldn't fight Alvarez, that fight won't happen.
    Alvarez won't go below 154, he is arguably the bigger draw now, so he doesn't exactly need to go below 154. And Manny won't fight above 150.
