Canelo undoubtedly and unsurprisingly has the wider and thicker build. however as far as height and reach goes there is not as much as a discrepancy. Thoughts?

      lol@ some of the posts. Thats right, canelo does love his shoes haha. Well i think the reason i brought it up because i feel like some people think that canelo being the "bigger" fighter is giving him more of an advantage than people may think. What i mean is that canelo has less of the physical advantages of a de la hoya, where de la hoya was bigger,taller, longer reach, etc.

      de la hoya was also having success early on with that jab, which i think was largely due to his size advantage (he always had a good jab i know) and even so mayweather took it away (plus he faded).

      I just find the dynamic intriguing and I'm interested to see what canelo's gameplan will be come fight night. With Trout i think people were surprised with how he fought. He varied his attack, and even though not completely polished yet he showed some skill set that many didn't think he had (myself personally). General consensus was that he would have a come forward seek and destroy type approach

      He still gets hit, and he fights only half the rounds and he'll be in there with the best. He gets better every fight though so we'll see where his learning curve is at 3 weeks from now

        Don't say another goddamn word. Up until now, I've been polite. If you say anything else--word one--I will kill myself. And when my tainted spirit finds its destination, I will topple the master of that dark place. From my black throne, I will lash together a machine of bone and blood, and fueled by my hatred for you this fear engine will bore a hole between this world and that one. When it begins you will hear the sound of children screaming--as though from a great distance. A smoking orb of nothing will grow above your bed, and from it will emerge a thousand starving crows. As I slip through the widening maw in my new form, you will catch only a glimpse of my radiance before you are incinerated. Then, as tears of bubbling pitch stream down my face, my dark work will begin. I will open one of my six mouths, and I will sing the song that ends the Earth.

          Yeah I know, once since 2007. I'm by no means saying Floyd would be heavier, nowhere near. I just want to know his fight night weight and not have to guess based on what he weighted several years ago, or even 30 days prior since this is apparently so easily cheated.

          If you gonna be asking to unify at a CW, for being too small of a champ, you need to step on that scale fight night. Especially after slamming another guy for using CWs 2+ divisions higher than you've ever went.
