    No he is not. I would say Canelo is Cotto level fighter. He is just fighting worse opposition, that is why he has only 1 loss. He has some elite skills, but he is not on Pacquiao`s level.

      Maybe I haven’t watched enough yet

      but Beter looks like another East euro caveman

      i see the bigger man taking a beating. A modern Dempsey-Willard

        So I’m not the only person who isn’t a fan of manny’s fruity persona

          I don`t believe Canelo would fight him before beterbiev loses a few fights and gets old.

            To be fair there still work to be done at 168

            Alvarez-Benavidez will happen. Good money

            Mexican vs Mexican-American rivalry. I like Alvarez style more but David owns a home in my area and I run pass the dude on the beach every couple months

            who to root for

              His record shows one loss. We all know he should have a least two more. Stay safe.

                Achievement wise you'd have to say no.

                  Best fight out there for Canelo, David is the only guy that can hang with him.

                  Ability wise Manny has quicker feet and lots of angles and would beat the same weight Canelo the same way Floyd did, it's all about the foot speed because Canelo is slow there, every fighter that has not only beat Canelo but to take any rounds of him all did because of their footwork, it opens Canelo up when he is chasing you, if you have the hand skills you will win some rounds before he catches up to you if you have ATG skills and conditioning as Floyd Manny have Canelo is very beatable.

                      manny destructed a great fighter in Barrera and dominated the very good Miguel Cotto

                      on the downside manny got conquered by 2 of his 3 rivals
                      Yes but he also did give Marquez 3 rematches and had 2 wins, he didn't clown out like Canelo and say "I EASILY BEAT MARQUEZ, WE DONT F*** AROUND IN THE PHILIPINES, NO REMATCH HE IS BORING."

                      This is why I can't support Canelo when he displays poor character like this.
