    Gabriel Rosado
    won 20 (KO 12) + lost 5 (KO 1) + drawn 0 = 25

    Sure but not yet. They're both young and with talent. I'm sure they could meet in a showdown later on in their careers and have a Mexico vs PR showdown. ( I believe Rosado is Puerto Rican)

    At the speed we are going, first Ortiz and now Maidana's name coming up, I'd say Rosado vs canelo sounds like Floyd vs PAC.

    I would. Gaby is my boy I used to train in the same gym with him, I think he has a great chance at beating Canelo who I'm a fan of. Good fight Camelot may have the edge but I back my boy on this fight, I believe he can pull of the upset

    There are so many better fights out there, but since GBP refuses to take one, why not?

    NO, Rosado is not a worthy opponent. Rosado would get TKO'd in 5 rounds or less

    Thats what I'm saying.
    We got who:
    Lara - GBP is not having it
    K9 - Would get his ass kicked
    Cotto - Not fighting till end of 2012
    Molina - ??
    Kirkland - Would get KTFO

    Rosado is the safest yet probably the most interesting bout GBP can make in my opinion. THis kid won't be a push over. Hes a legit 154 lber. Hes young and on a winning steak. He has gotten exclusive coverage on NBC sport so casual fans might know him too. Not to mention this kid could probably test Canelo in some type of way if not win. Plus like dude said its another PR/MEX rivalry.

    I think its a good idea.

    He might lose and yes might get KO'd but it won't be easy.

    I know Powell is past his prime but did you see his fight with Rosado? Rosado is becoming alot better in ring generalship. Canelo wouldn't go in there and KO him easily. **** not like he pushes for a KO in his fights anyways.

    Canelo-Rosado is not a good fight. ESPECIALLY if you consider all the possible, and deserving opponents. There are SOOO many more fights to make. infact 4 Jr. middle weights are fighting this weekend, all of which are better fighters than Rosado.

    I'd love to see Canelo vs Sergi Dzinzurick.

    Shame Sergi already has a fight scheduled.

    Yes but of realistic available light middleweights, King Gabriel is up there.

    That's just the competitiveness issue, too.

    If we're talking about "entertainment value for however long it lasts" Rosado ranks even higher among potential Canelo opponents at 154.

    I have a terrible hunch that we'll see him fight Mayorga.
