Something nobody is considering what if Canelo suddenly looks past it?

    Yeah, Hatton had balloon up damn seriously between fights despite he for sure had enough $$$$$ to use diectican, sports doctor, physiotherapist, massage therapist and hire S/C and fitness trainers.

    I think this shortened his prime cos he should had to cut a lot ( fat) before was ready to even start pre fight camps.
    He looked like some weight classes " larger " between some fights. Really heavy for his weight class.

    Yea thats just wishful thinking. Canelo is at his peak right now, and he doesnt take much punishment in his fights so hes still a very fresh fighter.

    He is at his prime right now but he will be at his prime version for the last time in the Plant fight probably. Then, the decline will begin because he will be 32. He can beat everyone until his 35-36.

    You're right.
    Gervonta Davis blows up like Hatton between fights.

    He wears thermal tape on his knees and elbows because he does a lot of high intensity training with weights to maintain the muscle mass he needs for quick and hard power punches.

    It's also the reason why his footwork has also slowed down and he does not throw the same volume of punches anymore. He has modified his style to a more economic output.

    He has more stresses and mileage on his body than people realise.

    boom this right here
    I was thinking the same thing with the knee bandages. Wouldnt suprise me if in 2 years from now Canelo is looking much more vulnerable than he is now. These are bigger taller stronger opponents he's fighting now.
    His peak will be earlier than other top fighters due to the high mileage for sure.

    He should be good for at least 4-5 more years. He doesn’t get hit that much and his style isn’t that dependant on speed or work rate.
