I think his punch power is above average, but it's not that devistating as the commentators yap about. What impresses me is how much Canelo's speed and defense skills have improved. With that being said I can see this kid being a devistating puncher within a year cuz his punch volume and speed has increased. IMO he doesn't have that one punch KO power that Roy Jones was talking about...

i like canelo but come on every1's speed n defense wud look mproved f he fights a guy that doesn't punch back n when he does its 1 @ a time.

He's wearing Winning Gloves, if they were Reyes he'd probably be knocking them the fuck out!

edit*
Did you see what happened to Baldomir once he caught him flush?!

What's your deal bro?..

you waiting til he's top 5 p4p until you decide to hop on the bandwagon or will you still have this "hype job hate" for the kid?

He's humble, powerful, and has all the tools necessary to be great at 20, yet you find reasons to hate on him?...I guess you have your reasons, just hope you stick to them if he's in the spotlight and on top some time down the line

i agree, he fought 2 euro bums in his last 2 fights and couldn't ko either of them.
