Alvarez should have stayed at 160 or even 154

[JakeTheBoxer]

He is a flat footed plodder in these higher weight classes.

He should lose a lot of weight, his body type is not made to walk around like this. He is even slower on his feet now.

He will probably find the way to beat old GGG at 168. Bivol already explained to him that he doesn`t belong to 175, if he ever meets Benavidez, he will find out that 168 is not really his weight class either.

The idea of him being a small Mike Tyson beating all dudes at 168 and 175 is...meh.

You are selling him short. He went up in weight and challenge himself with all the champs at 168 and then up to another undefeated champ at 175.

Great fighters most loose when the go up in weight because they will hit or exceed their limits. His style will not beat every style especially if the he is facing a naturally bigger skilled fighter.

I rather him stay at 160 and 168 but there were no marquee match ups except for a third fight against GGG.

Now he can fights the likes of Charlo, Benavides and can revisit 175. There are no other superstars around his weight class.

[Apollo7]

He became undisputed at 168 so no, he shouldn't have stayed at 160. Shouldn't have gone to 175 though. Bivol beat him clearly, prime Beterbiev or Kovalev beat him.

[Floyd is TBE]

He's a flat-footed plodder at every weight. That's just one of his weaknesses. Got nothing to do with size.

[Larry the boss]

he is to big for the weight

[StoptheFight]

This is kind of true. If you look at his light heavy fights they havent been great. there is no shame in this, as he is clearly undersized for the qeight class, but he lost to Bivol convincingly, we was getting out-jabbed a washed Kovalev going into the 11th. He dared to be great and it cost him. The promoter and team is at fault here, you need to reign in your guy here.

[davef]

I agree he should have but you can't really fault him for taking challenges at least

After facing Bivol hopefully he realises his limits more

[Sctrojan]

He couldn't. He has said it's still an effort to make 168,can't make 160 anymore let alone 154. After GGG it's time for Mall to move up and pursue that fight. Canelo doesn't want that Bivol or David work so Mall has a good chance as anyone landing that fight.

[Bret_Hart]

he has the best active resume in boxing right now. Canelo is like Manny Pacquiao who moves up in weight classes. He will beat GGG Convincingly this time
