Ryan flaws are obvious. Hes a lefty and drops his right hand ala Froch (Froch drops his left hand). He gets hit a lot and would radher take the shots than protect himself.
His defense is his movement. But he isnt that slick and turns his back, drops his hands and hasnt the best condition. He tires towards the end of a round and punches himself out sometimes. Canelo should punish his body when he moves to the side.
Canelo has had a good camp with strong sparrings partner (Golovkin) and should get past this guy.
Rhodes is a veteran with XP at domestic level, he works to the body pretty well and has a nice right hook. Lets see how he handles a young lion.
Spit Venom's prediction: Canelo wins by KO.
I'm not too familiar with Rhodes, but from what I saw on youtube I was surprised with the amount of bodywork he put in. Also seems to be a hard, inaccurate puncher. I hope Canelo worked on his defense.
Canelo with the decision. If Rhodes wins, it will be by TKO.
thanks for your prediction. Rhodes likes to exchange and in that kind of situation he leaves himself wide open.
I wouldnt be surprised to see Canelo catching him like he caught Baldomir.
