Hopkins,Taylor and Tito all would beat the kaka out of Canelo.
I'm sure you are really unbiased Team Cotto XD....
The same Tito that schooled by Oscar? Nah not happening pal
Hopkins and Taylor might win and would be favourites but I would not be surprised at all if Canelo could time them and counter them making the fights competitive and even scraping a win against a less experienced Hopkins and chinny Taylor.
It's always fu(king one way or the other with you guys, Never a competitive fight no? That's impossible right....smh
Hopkins maybe by knockout. But to be safe, MD or UD. Canelo gasses once you get up to round nine. In other words, he's not sharp and game in the later rounds to compete at the best of his abilities. His power is also vastly overrated. He's not a power puncher. He's a boxer, pure and simple. He doesn't raise the bar to physically destroy his opponent. He just does what he needs to do to stay in the lead and not get ballsy. His biggest problem is he's too flat footed. Meaning if someone wants to rip shots on your face, your giving them more of an opportunity to inflict more damage.
If felix couldn't do it, then Canelo definitely can't. Felix was lighting fast and light on his feet. He couldn't implement a winning strategy with Hopkins in the course of the fight, where Hopkins just improved
Terry Norris was amazing...Damn that Julian Jackson though XD
Well you just proved your lack of intelligence, a smart man could debate anything.Hopkins,Taylor and Tito all would beat the kaka out of Canelo.
lmao..
Why do you keep bringing up sadam ali... The kid is talented, had a setback, if you actually knew boxing, this happens all the time to fighters,, How many times did terry norris lose before he had a hall of fame career, do you even know who terry norris is...
Prime hopkins and taylor would both beat canelo at middleweight,,, I don't know how anyone can debate that

Hopkins was already 28 when he fought Jones.... Canelo is 25
Hopkins still improved after the age of 25 why can't Canelo??
I think Canelo could scrape a 1-2 point win against a 25 year old Hopkins, yes.
And Yes, 12 rounds, Canelo's not going anywhere and he's gonna land his counters.. Taylor goes down...Hell maybe he gets up and earns a hard fought decision but if you don't think Canelo catches him you're nuts.
I don't have to resort to any further insults other than you believed in "Mr.Brittle" Sadam Ali ...That's the beginning and end of your boxing knowledge.
lmao..

Here's you basing a fighters willingness to fight at a weight the deciding factor in a fight...and you actually have the balls to laugh?
I said Canelo beats a Hopkins the same age as him and yeah He would catch Taylor and stop him like anyone with a punch at the top level. You nostalgic assh0les are hilarious.

Here is a poster that thinks canelo, who won't even fight at 160, could go up and beat 2 of the best middleweights in the past 25 years.
Canelo ain't that good, def wouldnt be able to keep up with a prime Hopkins or taylor

Great Triangle theories .....
Now can I start by saying I thought Canelo lost to Trout and Lara and that Cotto deserved a draw or lost by 1-2 points at the most, now that said you are criminally underestimating Canelo. Dude is not the guy who lost to Floyd. He has better reflexes than anyone listed here and I honestly think he'd beat the Crap outta Vargas and Tito and Tito is the man who got me into boxing. How can you watch Tito's embarrassing footwork and think he'd be able to land on Canelo with getting his head countered off? Did you not see the Oscar fight?
Wow..I see why you thought Sadam Ali was actually the goods...Jermain Taylor...Jesus...
Hopkins from the Jones Jr fight gets beaten close UD...Hopkins from the Oscar fight wins Close UD
Lmao...

From what I can remember, Hopkins was one of the stronger middleweights during his time there as far as strength goes and was able to move around on feet pretty good without having to plant his feet too much when throwing. This alone is why I would easily favor Hopkins to beat Canelo quite comfortably. Canelo to me would not be able to muscle Hopkins around and wouldn't find really any opportunities to sit down on his punches while being in range. Factoring in the fact that Hopkins has about 5 inches of both height & reach on him makes me think that there is a possibility that Hopkins might just bully him in the ring so to speak.
It would be much worse why??
1-They said "PRIME" Hopkins
2-Canelo is smaller then Pavlik with less reach
So which Hopkins is that? What fight?
Wow so being smaller with less reach automatically makes you a lesser fighter?
Hopkins executes him in about 10 rds.. It would be just brutal to watch Rds 5-10.. Hopkins would start slow, and then pick apart and do severe damage to Canelo in the 2nd half..
Canelo isn't as good as vargas, who wasn't as good as tito, who was brutalized by hopkins..
Prime jermain taylor would beat and probably stop canelo.. No doubt
