    Canelo`s handspeed is better than Kalule`s was and better than Hagler`s in `87.

    No Leonard`s legs ran out of steam around the 5th round v Hagler and he wan`t as quick at 160.

    Well it's debatable how good Ayub Kalule was , he was stopped by Leonard in 9 and Ray wasn't that big a puncher at 154. He then was ko'ed by Davey Moore who had 10 fights. He lost to McCallum who had I believe 16 fights at the time. He managed to beat Sumbu Kalumbay in a fight I don't remember, ( may try to find it), and he retired after Herol Graham ko'ed him. I don't think there's much question Canelo would be a much more dangerous opponent than Ayub, Ray should be favored by UD but if Norris could starch Ray at 154 so could Canelo,,,,,,and I'm probably a Canelo hater.
