Canelo vs Calzaghe

Now that May is retired, Nelo seems to be the de facto guy everyone will be hypothetically matched against :boxing: GGG who ?

The work rate of Calazaghe would give him the lead for the early rounds. Against Plant, Canelo was struggling every time plant actually threw punches. Plant is a known gasser, and he thus faded away in the later rounds enabling canelo to stop him. Canelo will come back and take rounds 8,9,10, but Calazghe doesn’t get tired and will adjust. Calazghe by an entertaining but comfortable decision.

Whislt its common knowledge that calzaghe wouldn take a fight with a atg, not till canelo was 44 - prime vs prime it would still be close. Canelo will outbox him narrowly, but not stop him. Might be an issue in Cardiff where Welsh ref will stop the fight when Calzaghe lands harmlessly on the ref's belly, and then refuses a rematch and moves up to fight 40somethings.

This fight depends on whether Calzaghe's punches can sting Canelo enough to slow him down, or if his punches can come quick enough so that it can land right before Canelo has a chance to respond. Calzaghe's most notable fights were the RJJ and the Bernard Hopkins fights yea? This fight might play out like the Plant fight since both are much taller fighters than Canelo, but then you can argue that Plant had quicker hands and better mobility than Calzaghe. Canelo still found a way to deal with it and landed that devastating haymaker that landed Plant on the floor...

Really good fight damn, either wins by close decision.

Canelo can't handle 1000 slaps. Calzaghe UD.

Calzaghe with his little girly punches aren’t going to convince the judges when compared to Canelos bombs to the body. Besides, Calzaghe isn’t quick enough to run for 12 rounds. Canelo catches him and brutalizes the body and stops him.

lol it doesn't even have to be close calzaghe could clearly win every round and the corrupt judges would still give the fight to clenelo remember the gayweather jr fight? LMAO!!!! Bro, your shit is hard to read. Learn to use a period once in a while. Damn.

One guy would certainly be a pitty patting ring running machine Never known Calslappy to have stamina issues so he could slap and run all night. Calslappy is very crafty and would not be easy to corner without getting clinched. However, Calslappy is going to feel like he has the fight in control and go in for a lazy ill advised ''attack'' and get caught. Never to regain his composure. Nelo TKO10

LOL Canelo cracks that chin and breaks his body down...and I'm not even a Canelo stan Different levels

In America Canelo wins easily. Joe was floored by 43 year old Hopkins and scraped a very close decision. Canelo would hit him a lot harder than that and take him to pieces. UK judges always rewarded Calzaghe for slappy shots many of which wouldn't have broken an egg. Canelo is a class above Calzgage on any scale you want to measure. like clenelo stopped danny jacobs? or how about when he stopped smith? you overrate his power but of course you do because you're a fanboy who probably got clenelo posters above his bed.

I’d say Canelo by a close and possibly controversial decision. I could potentially see Canelo winning by stoppage and could potentially see Calzaghe out working Canelo and winning on points but the most likely outcome is Canelo by decision IMO. lol it doesn't even have to be close calzaghe could clearly win every round and the corrupt judges would still give the fight to clenelo remember the gayweather jr fight?

calzaghe would embarrass clenelo. cal's work rate and speed as well as his awkwardness would be to much for ginger. clenelo is flat footed alot of times and he has trouble dealing with guys who move like lara. plant was making clenelo look clueless in their fight at times
