    canelo can be outboxed thats clear

    he also has a strong punch so you have to be able to take that

    this canelo we see now is not as good as he was 3 4 or 5 years ago, hes definitely slowed down and is not so sharp in the ring

    joe can be dropped but hes busy and good, id put my cash on calzaghe if the mytical matchup could ever happen

    would be a good fight

      you see what has to happen though,

      it has to be canelo fighting THE #1 British fighter of all time according to this publication, boxingscene.

      thats how top shelf canelo is

      i guess there is no questions abut all the rest, no in betweens for canelo, never any rest

              Awful style matchup for Saul.

                calzaghe has a great workrate, dynamic jab, underrated footwork and defensive awareness, a granite chin, but especially an educated punch to the back of the head

                  Definitely not wrong. Calzaghe would win 12 out of 12 rounds in that fantasy fight. The styles make fights trope really comes into play here and like they said here the work rate would be like kryptonite. Calzaghe beats him even more thorough than Floyd or Bud did.

                    Hmmm
                    One guy at his best /natural weight
                    The other willing to chase greatness

                    Reminds me of how May is matched with every PRIME WW HOFer

                    Nelo might not be able to catch up to Slappy
                    The fight would not take place in the middle of the ring

                    This is when a catchweight can make sense

                    I wonder, who would Paulie match himself against
