RJJ wasn't even fun to watch for me

[Silence]

The topic doesn't have anything to do with Canelo in general either yet you brought him into it for no reason what so ever.

You were the first to reply to my post. So our topic is Canelo vs RJJ. Otherwise you shouldn't have replied me at all.

You said Griffin was schooling Roy Jones which is patently false.

47% punch accuracy is basically schooling everytime everywhere. Even if we consider that Compubox has a margin of error of about 5%, it's still schooling.

You then used it as some kind of reasoning as to why Canelo has a chance with Roy Jones, which is illogical and on top of that I could easily see Griffin beating Canelo anyway.

It's not illogical. Reversely, it is based on a very good example from 1997 against "prime" RJJ.

It's neither here nor there, Canelo's chances against Roy Jones are less than 1%. There aren't many stylistic match ups for Canelo that I can think of that would be worse.

It can easily be deduced from this post that you are a low IQ casual. At least this is more likely than being "BoxingScene Icon."

Gtfoh now.

I responded to your point about Griffin schooling Jones which again is patently false. He was barely even winning let alone schooling. So again, that's false.

It is illogical because #1 he didn't beat Roy Jones and #2 they aren't even similar fighters so even if Griffin did school Roy Jones (which he didn't) that has no bearing on how Canelo would do.

I didn't add that Boxingscene Icon to my profile mate, someone else did. But nice try.

I always thought Canelo would school him with his smart pressure at 168. RJJ's weakness was smart pressure and forcing to fight on the ropes. He had mediocre stamina and low output. He also had mediocre chin. His raw athleticism was a make up for his low level fundamentals.

For example, Griffin was basically schooling him by landing "more punches" and landing "half of his punches" on him. His strategy was smart pressure. He was ahead on one scorecard. Griffin is 170 cm guy who has 178 cm reach. The same proportions with Canelo.

If we apply that on 168, Canelo is clearly better fighter than Griffin and Jones at 168 is a bit better than his 175 version. The technically outcome is Canelo win. I laugh with my a$$ when people see RJJ as God.

Griffin was underrated. He was coming off a decision win over Toney, and was behind on two of the judges scorecards at the time of the DQ against Roy. A highly motives Jones took him out in the first round of the rematch. I don’t see where Canelo is a bigger threat at 168 or 175. Griffith’s win over a prime Toney is > any wins Canelo has at 168/175. Canelo got schooled by Bivol, who isn’t nearly as fast as Jones was at 168/175. Canelo would have looked like a slightly bigger version of Pazienza against Jones.

It was hit or miss.
His opponents were usually trash.

The "muh Benavidez" crowd are mostly just anti-Canelo edgelords. If he gets chinned by Plant it will be "muh Andrade" again.

And if he beats Plant in better fashion than Saul, then what?

[Zaroku]

Benavidez' output will drop as he faces better opposition and it will become less effective.

Nice post bro!

Let's get the fight on!
