    Smith the number 1 at 168 and now Saunders?? That's two top fighter's at 168, You are just too blind to see that Canelo has gotten better since those ggg fights.

    Maybe plaster? I think you are confusing Margarito with Canelo here.

    See this is how dumb you Really are, Triniadad was not as complete as Canelo, and Canelo is not a alcohol drinker drug addict that Pavlik was when he faced Hopkins.

    The judges know how to handle that problem, they are well seasoned. There's not a fight they can't handle.

    Canelo might beat the 51 year old Hopkins that Smith knocked out of the ring. Prime Hopkins though, hell no. Canelo is too flat footed. He wouldn't win inside and wouldn't win outside. He'd probably get beat up.

    The Taylor and Calzaghe fights weren't Hopkins prime, they were post prime. That being said, Canelo doesn't have the legs of a Jones jr. He is fairly flat footed and short. Prime Hopkins doesn't have a problem with flat footed short dudes. It's a recipe to get Canelo abused.
