I don`t see that being competitive, even at 154. Pacquiao was able to beat Margarito really bad and Canelo has always been bigger and stronger guy than Pac.
Margo in any weight wouldn't beat Canelo. I meant ODLH or Trinidad, a green smaller Canelo more than likely but this big skilled Canelo is hard to beat.
This version of Canelo is too big and too good to be sure anyone those name could heat him. If they would caught him early in a career more than likely but not know.

Margacheato couldn't beat Canelo on his best days, nor even without hand wraps. This old man is delusional and envious because he never achieved high level of success like Canelo.
He couldn't even beat a 154 Pacquiao, yet how would he handle the power of Canelo?
I think Oscar De La Hoya at 147 pounds, beats Canelo Alvarez at 147.
Faster hand speed, better combinations, tough, greater stamina, better movement, superior jab.
I don't think Alvarez at 147 pounds, was as good as Oscar De La Hoya at his peak 'There is zero evidence of this historically'.
There is very clear comparison to prove all what I have stated? Oscar De La Hoya vs Floyd Mayweather Junior. De La Hoya, was up against a better version of Mayweather and performed levels better than Alvarez 'When he fought Mayweather'.
I think there are multiple fighters that would of beaten Alvarez at 147 pounds.
Oh absolutely agree. Alvarez was just getting started as a pro at 147. He was no one at that weight.
margarito blocks punches with his face. he isnt beating canelo at any point in time unless you are talking like canelo as an 18 year old or some bullchit.
I agree that Margarito/Oscar/Tito all beat 147 pound Canelo and I would favor them all against Drainelo at 152 but Margarito is just hating on Canelo for the most part.
I will say that Margarito and Tito are two of the coolest people I ever met as a fan seeing them at fights in Vegas, and Morales was a total POS to the fans.
Cotton's smaller, older brother had the red headed Irishman on queer street. Margarito pounds carrot top into submission similar to how he did with Cotton.
That was Canelo's final match at WW when the young growing ginger was killing himself to make weight, he moved to 154 right afterwards
Cotto's fat brother momentarily buzzed a badly weight drained Canelo, only to get destroyed afterwards, that's what happened
Yeah, maybe the best version of Margo could beat THAT Canelo at 147
Any other scenario Margarito gets obliterated as if it was a repeat of the Mosley fight
I think it was Jack Dempsey that once said something along those lines. But he was talking about active fighters. When you’re retired and looking around, you ought to show a little humility. Canelo is much better than Margarito ever was or ever could be.
Very true but the spirit of a fighter never leaves till they die it's their soul, for some, it comes out as arrogance or a steadfast silence, its hard for many to be humble because its not an instinctual thing to be especially from a warrior mentality.
If you're a real fighter you cannot think anything else until its proven otherwise, the nature of the beast.

Fighters say the silliest things. Lol Everybody thinks they’re better than the next guy. Ever notice that? :lol1:

160 and above this current version of canelo beats prime tito and cotto the same night...
when canelo hangs his gloves, he will rank higher as an ATG than those 2...
