So you're saying even though both can make the cruiser limit,its only fair he fights Makabu because Usyk would possess attributes that pose too much of a threat?? Essentially cherry picking another inferior fighter to lift his belt off of him and claim another hollow title in another division? Got it.....Should come to no surprise since he did the same with Kovalev though,carry on.
    Why Pacquiao fought against Margarito in 152 pounds? Why Ray Leonard fought against Lalonde? Those fighters were not the best. But still being a risky fights.

    Canelo is small, i don't remember much fighters competing at this level giving a lot of adventages in reach and height.

    Just Pacquiao...

    Canelo faced the Best in 154, 160 and 168, 174 and cruiserweights are too much for him, but win a title it's not that easy.

    Lomachenko was crying yestersay that 140 was too much for him, only 14 pounds of a jump.

    Canelo 154 to 190 are 36 pounds.

    Look the size of the arms of Makabu.

    The bones... Canelo is a small but strong 168 pounds, he is naturally very strong, but he is not Big.

    Canelo vs Usuk is like Canelo vs Crawford in 168.

    Gavril vs Crawford is like Canelo vs Makabu, still a dangerous fight.

      Canelo is a better boxer than Usyk.

      Usyk still being great in skills, but rivals of Usyk are not.better than Troutu, skillswise.

        Better who do you think more skilled GGG or Usyk?

        And I won't argue with your comment I kinda agree after thinking about it more

          I think Usyk is just a bridge too far for Canelo. Combination of too big, too skilled.

            You never know, Uysk has been at heavyweight for some time now and? He is weighing in at 221 pounds 'A full 21 pounds over the Cruiser weight limit'.

            And if he is to face Alvarez at cruiser weight, that fight would be in close to over 1 years time.

            I can remember when Chris Byrd went down to light heavyweight, and was ****** out 'And he as ****** out, mainly due to the drastic changes he forced his body through'.

              Man that’s a good question GGG when he wanted could jab you all night and display very good skill he rarely relied on it. GGg obviously had that power/chin combination that made it difficult for anyone.

              Now I’m not saying Usyk isn’t skilled he clearly is but given the division he’s in it may look more impressive than it really is.

              Honestly that’s pretty tough to say.

                  If you wanted to say Usyk is as skilled as Canelo, no problem but no way in hell is 10x as skilled. What he is is considerably bigger.

                    That's what Pacquiao-Mayweather would have been, if Floyd hadn't ducked the fight when it mattered
