    One thing for sure is Benn wouldn't be running like Saunders and Plant. He'll bring it to Canelo in a way none of his recent opponents have even tried to do.
    Benn would put it on him from the first bell and show canelo no respect, the size and the strength difference would be too much.

          Based on being the overall better fighter better skills, better defense, better ring IQ, better power(or equal) and better Chin.

          just overall better than Benn.
          you still think that?

              Benn never beat McLellan. McLellan's brain beat Mcclellan

I think it’s maybe 55/45 to Canelo, as his skills are A- level and very refined (Mayweather and Toney and similar being A level and SRR and SRL and few other similar like prime Durán being A+ level).
                    Nigel Benn was more durable than Alvarez.

                    Benn's durability is more proven.

                    Alvarez is not a monster puncher, I don't rate him as a all-time great big puncher at Middle-Super Middle Weight.

                    I will make this fight a 45-55 fight, just in favor for Nigel Benn.

                    If McClellan could not stop Benn, then Alvarez has no chance of stopping Nigel Benn.

                    Nigel Benn is going to be dangerous all night, too the body and up top.

                      Why are people acting as if Alvarez is a monster puncher? Benn hits harder than Alvarez, has superior endurance, and his durability is more proven.

                      I think Benn can beat Alvarez, and via stoppage as well.

                      Canelo Alvarez is not a monster puncher, for me he has shown zero evidence for this claim.

                      Who has Alvarez knocked out? Amir Khan, Liam Smith, a ill prepared Sergey Kovalev with only 6 weeks recovery from the Yarde fight.

                      Alvarez is not a monster puncher, so if Benn was wide open 'So what'.
