    I'm not seeing many names that stick out

    For me Billy Joe Saunders and Caleb Plant are the two with the best chance. Both can move and box beautifully, which is Canelos weakness.

    Same although I think jermall Charlo has the best style to probably knock Canelo out I'm not saying he can 100% I'm just saying he has the style for it

    Beterbiev probably kills him.

    The top 175s are far too big and good, they all dwarf Canelo and hit much harder.

    Stylistically i would say Saunders would be all wrong for him.

    It woukd be interesting to see canelo against Callum Smith and if the size difference between the 2 would be too big for Canelo.

    LHW is far too big for Canelo.

    There are plenty just at middle.

    Golovkin we've already seen, I think Jacobs will. Saunders style wise and possibly Andrade if he goes into it with his head screwed on right.

    You are boxing's version of one of those whiny SJW's who refuses to accept Trump as president cause HIllary won the majority vote.

    Canelo's last fight over GGG was LEGIT, get over it.

    I don't think anyone at 175 can KO Canelo. GGG hits as hard as any 175lber, heck he KOs heavyweights in sparring. And Canelo took his shots flush

    Would love to see Canelo bulk up and fight Kovalev. No idea who would win.

    1 Trump legitimately won so I willingly accept his as President. Heaven forbid Hilary as president I didn't vote
    2 So 85% of boxing experts & fans are wring in saying GGG won both fights. huh ??? You agree with the 15 % that voted Moonelo along with the corrupt Vegas judges & vommission
    Nuff Said !!!
