So Alvarez Is Done w/ 168 For Good

Depends how heavy he comes in for his next bout.

He's not changing his weight at all. He's about 180 in the ring. That's about what he was at 160, maybe 3-4 pounds more.

I hope not. I think it’s Canelo’s best weight class. I thought he lost a little speed in that Kovalev fight.

I don’t think so nothing left there he has all the belts I think he’ll look to campaign at 175.

I agree with you. He will never weigh in on fight night though so it will be all speculation of course. He just won’t need to cut any weight, and maybe add a couple pounds of muscle tops. His opponent is not a big cruiserweight or tall like say Usyk was. I’m sure this is very calculated. Still it’s intriguing enough that it lets him bypass the Beterbiev’s, Bivols, Benividez’s etc, at least for now

I think so

175 is doable if he handles a cruiserweight in impressive fashion

Yea I think he’ll be fine at 175 he knocked out Kovalev cold( tho the haters would make you believe Kova was 70 yrs old and on crutches) when a huge power puncher in Yarde couldn’t beat him.

Yarde the same guy who doesn’t spar and had a fat UK domestic level padded record. Funny how we rate these guys so high when your favorite fighter beats them haha

Cruiserweight? You really think he's going to fight there at his height?
