    I don't know, man... the thread's title makes me think about Emerson, Lake & Palmer, though.

        Chavez Jr. walks around as a cruiser weight. When he fought Canelo he pulled a Joshua Clottey and put his earmuffs on for the entire fight. He risked nothing so he wouldn't get hit. Canelo's power is as much about how he creates openings with combinations and counter punching.

            If I had to guess, I'd say he didn't respect Fonfara and was willing to take risks against him, probably underestimated him, he also came off an over one year layoff. Fonfara was also more of a natural light heavyweight when they fought. With Canelo, he didn't take any risks, he fought scared the whole time.

              Canelo is in his prime years, he is at his peak at this moment. He has always been good, combine that with not cutting as much weight and his improvements seem out of this world, but they are not.
