Yea canelo will be a top ten 154lb fighter if he wins, hopefully he does

[HattonFaithful]

If Canelo wins, does it make him legit to the point where he can get in the ring with Angulo late this year?

Ya, I think it would put him up on that level but he has to win in impressive fashion. I'm excited for this fight, think it's gonna be a good one!

[JJRod]

Would like to see if Canelo has improved his defense, as his team has said.
his defense with Matthew Hatton was horrible, but I give him the benefit of the doubt, because Hatton couldn't hurt Canelo at all, so he just decided to walk through his punches.
Won't be able to do that against Rhodes.

If say Canelo wins: decidedly, will he be consider a legit boxer or still just a GBP overhyped boxer?

I would say legit too, Rhodes is no push over, This fight is going to be on point and could go either way, no doubt...

[UglyPug]

If Rhodes wins, nobody should be surprised....at least if you really follow boxing like I do...this is a TOUGH fight that can go either way...Canelo knows it and GB knows it

i think so too. they know that eventually canelo is going to have to test the waters before he gets thrown out without a life vest. this should be a good enough indication on whether or not he's ready for the beasts of the division. It'd be nice to see Rhodes pull the upset, but I don't wanna see canelo lose in front of his people. Canelo doesn't wanna let his people down, so it should give him enough to pull out the win if it gets ugly

natas = dead. . . meat. . .

Its a test for Saul but in fairness if he can't get a win against someone like Rhodes his career is in real trouble. By the way Rhodes kO'd Jamie Moore for whoever said his best opponent was Gary Lockett.
