Dude might not be the elite talent, but he might be. He's improving a lot between fights and he's great to watch, leads and counters, always throws more than one punch, ends all exchanges, picks of a lot of shots, has good movement. His hands are getting quicker, but his feet arent.
I really want to know what was going on in the crowd.
Ok guys for those of you who don't see anything speacial or at least great potential in Canelo, you have to consider this:
Yes he was rushed into the title, but he's 21(almost) he has YEARS to improve. In 10 years he's going to be almost Pacquiao's age, that's a lot of room for improvement and he has done a lot of growing with each fight. I see pontential in Canelo, maybe he's not going to be p4p king but he has the style to become a bigger star not to mention he has the fundamentals to beat a lot of todays B level fighters.
He seems to be a quick learner, improving with every fight.
I liked how prepared he was for the southpaw stance.
Some fighters have problems with it, but he was landing his best punches when Rhodes fought left-handed.
I think he's ready for anyone at 154. I don't mind if he fights someone who isn't great next time out but Mayorga...that guy hasn't won a meaningful fight for about 10 years.
Mayorga is an overrated clown. Great ticket seller though.
I see a very special fighter in the making.
I don't think people are taking into account just how much better and stronger he is going to get. He's barely a man at this point and he's already huge and powerful (his back and neck are ridiculous for a 20 year old)...when he fully develops physically he's going to be a tank. He's strong, he's fast, he throws great combo's and he's got a good boxing IQ.
He'll be a terrific fighter.
Golovkin got the better of him in sparring
So? Golovkin is an accomplished amateur, bigger guy, and badass. Canelo learned a lot from this camp, he improved a lot since the hatton fight. And got his best sparring ever. Even think that might he a good thing?
Was rhodes thatmuch of a joke or is canelo better than many think.
The style matchup looked to be horrible for rhodes.
Canelo is definitely a strong 154lber. Looked stronger than rhodes
I'm not on the bandwagon just because he really hasn't fought anyone, BUT i will tell you I am very impressed with some of his ability. He is extremely composed/relaxed in the ring which is rare for a fighter his age, he throws excellent combinations, and he seems to have nice power. I would like to see him use the jab more often and continue to develop as a body puncher.

I was reluctant he was going to live up to the hype, but after the 4th round of the Rhodes fight I was reserving my yearly pass to the Canelo Express.
I think the kid is gonna either be special or he's gonna give us a ton of action packed fights trying to be great.
I know people have trouble being objective, especially because Alvarez holds a belt, but look at the pace this kid is at at the age of 20. Alvarez is worth the hype at the moment, and is doing exactly what he should.
I'm on the general consensus...He's improved, he slips punches, and has great form...the kid is getting better every fight. At this point he would need to continue to learn new things and get more comfortable....but overall he's getting better.
I like him. He's only 20 so he's got plenty of time to keep improving and have a great career.
A lot of peoPle say he's gonna get exposed soon, but they wont say who they think will do it...
