Who has a realistic chance against 160-175 lb. Canelo?

[The Big Dunn]

Did you see the photo Hurd posted of him and Crawford from sparring yesterday? Unbelievable that it's one division separating them.

no I didn’t see it. Hurd needs to get back at it.

Agreed. Fell off the Fking map when he lost to Jrock. He's fighting next month against Luis Arias. Maybe a good fight after that?


EDIT - It's a fine fight if Hurd is moving to 160 I guess, or is Arias going down to 154?

Man I didn’t even realize he was fighting again. I hope he goes to 160. Think that would be better for him.

He's ****ing huge for 154, he's gotta be draining himself like crazy. He says it's easy to make the weight but.....come on lol


yeah, he's on the Mayweather/Paul undercard.

I have to watch some of these other guys, havent really been watching them. Beterbiev is already 36 but has huge power. Bivol is atleast only 30. The kovalev fight was so strange, he looked like he was pulling his punches to me. Some people say he was trying to punch faster and others say he wasnt trying at all but threw the fight.

Oh that’s why I didn’t see it. I have no interest in that garbage. Funny thing is my 14 ye old son and his friends are really into it.

someone who isn't european

must come from the black or mexican schools of boxing

Canelo a slick bruvva despite being Mexican. only chance of beating him is a black Mexican.

That's who it's marketed too. I watched the PBC card, and switched over to Triller just for the Prograis fight, and **** did I ever feel out of place.

ggg has the best chance to beat him i think even though he hasnt been overly impressive lately

[F l i c k e r]

Nobody.

If I "had" to choose, I'd say Bivol or Beterbiev then. Simply because they are live bodies, in their primes, with a puncher's chance.

Fighting those kind of guys. Those Provodnikovs, Kosta Tszyu types take f.ucking years off the life span. Even if Canelo would beat them (which I think he would), he's going to feel it after.

I think he out boxes both of those guys though.

Canelo isn't losing anymore for the rest of his career. Nobody in boxing has that level of skill and combination of natural power/athleticism with boxing IQ either. (corection: Spence does but that fight isn't going to happen)

The only one would be a 100% healthy and committed Andre Ward possibly. Who even then, would probably need a tune up before fighting Canelo.
