    canelo is still unproven imo, but isn't really a hypejob cause he doesn't win his fights by SD or anything. every guy they put in front of him, he blows them out of the water. why doesn't he knock them out is a mystery. i remember larry merchant said during saul's fight with either cotto or baldomir that he went to decisions with guys levels below him, and his answer to why he did is because he wanted to gain experience. im not sure if he did that with his last or recent opponents, or he just couldn't knock em out, but it still remains to be seen. I really want to see him tested soon, like everyone else, i wanna know what saul is really made of against top opposition. but good for him getting the cover. he keeps building a bigger following, he gets boxing more exposure i guess.

        Ummm...

        He didn't blow the DREADED Mathew Hatton out of the water.

        I guess you missed his last fight..it was "boring" as hell.

            i'm talking about the scorecards man.
            and yeah it pretty much was. i have no clue why alvarez didn't KO him, i'm pretty sure he was capable of doing it....

              Hatton was a tuff skinny guy.. You got to give him credit.. He took big shots... That cotto punch did affect him, mind you he's still young.. He still ended up taking care of him... I don't think he's small at all?... He has good power and underrated speed.. Goes to the body with a good left.. If he continues to get better and I don't see why he wouldn't, we should have a great fighter.

                He didn't blow Mathew Hatton like I did in the water.

                I guess you missed his last fight..or else you would have seen me riding matt in his corner.

                  Lol, i wasn't yelling, just not very cool when you put words in my mouth. Canelo is just a kid he didnt look good against Hatton. Well have to wait a few years to find out if hes the real deal, or all hype.

                    Why do people hate hype? honestly? You complain about the sport not getting enough recongnition, and then when someone does get popular, you hate them.

                    no one is claiming he is the second coming of a Ray Leonard or Ali or anything. hes just a young, exciting fan favorite.

                    stop being such ****s.

                      It's not like he didn't look good. He disappointed by not KOing Hatton. He looked good in the sense that he just beat him up. I think he needs to grow defensively, he's still getting hit more than he should. I don't think too much of him because he's still unproven. If he beats Rhodes, I can say he's on the right track to becoming a real star.
