    he just got lucky he doesn't have a tougher competition in this era.. but floyd who has the tougher competition just went on vacation and just cherry picked

      I don't see Canelo losing either, even if you can avoid his powershots all 12 rnds, he'll get the decision no matter what. His chin is solid. I don't remember him ever being wobbled and he took clean shots from GGG.

        Every elite athlete is on peds.

        even dart players and golfers

        but it does seem they did a very good job with Canelo's weight jump

          Look at Calzaghe, RJJ, Ward, Pavlik, Taylor..

          Him beating everyone at 168 right now means it is a weak era or he has a great stuff.

          We saw what can bother him, a mover with speed but he found a way to adapt to BJS. I too specifically thought about RJJ and Calzaghe last night and they would have the right style to beat canelo easily, with calzaghe having a relentless output and conditioning, not slowing down like BJS and RJJ having the power in his shots unlike BJS. BJS could move on the outside and throw but only for a few rounds before both being worn down and Canelo adapting a new strategy with the uppercuts.

              Canelo is juiced to the absolute gills. His increase in power and velocity is the most unnatural thing I have ever seen. He throws every shot at 200% and could do it for four days. All he has to do is plod forward throwing juice bombs an the cards are rigged already, couple that with his iron chin and he is completely unbeatable.

              I don’t think I have seen him throw a jab in three fights. He just throws maximum effort hooks and shoes no sign of slowing down, in fact he appears to get stronger hahaha
              Beterbiev takes all he's got and starches him. Probably Bivol too. He's staying at 168 because the talent is weak there. 168 is a historic weak division that's why Calzaghe never left it until certain names got old and beatable.

              Canelo's lack of tempo has been an impediment his entire career. He doesn't throw a lot of punches so it appears he could do it for days, he can't ---> it's just his output is low so it looks like it.

                  I think if CVS or Walgreens take the fight they could KO Clenny in 2

                    Carl Froch, Joe Calzaghe would of both beaten him.

                    Billy Joe Saunders is not really a super middle weight etc

                    Alvarez is a great fighter, but he is opportunistically exploiting this way below par era in the middle weight divisions.
