    Who is seen as the biggest threat to canelo?
    Lara
    Who knocked him down twice and gave him one of the hardest fights of his career?
    Angulo

    Canelo has been pushed around and has fought WW's for his whole career. Don't know why he's afraid to step up to a real JMW ****er. He'll fight a WW and a LW one

      The fact of the matter is, despite the knockdowns, Lara is in an entirely different league. Has anybody seen Angulo's technique? He's throwing punches like a baseball pitcher. He is so technically deficient that it is alarming. So what if two of his Western Union punches land? I never understood the attraction of C- fighters at the highest level, sure they make nice under card material. I thought the point of watching boxing was to see a level of skill a notch above the bar scene?

        Everybody knows he doesn't have much technique, but if you can't handle the pressure, you could crumble. That's what Angulo does and what he does best.

        Alexander's a good boxer, but he can't do anything if you smother him.
        Broner was supposed to be good too, but we've seen time and time again he can't do anything if you're in his face and troubling him

          it will be an exciting fight, people are now calling canelo a bum after losing to the #1 p4p... he's still #3 best jmw behind floyd and lara. assuming floyd goes back down to 147, he's #2.

            I'm liking this fight. But not ppv. No need for it. Should be on showtime championship boxing as the main undercard.

              #3? The **** you smoking. Andrade is ahead of Canelo too. Soon the Charlo twins will be as well.

                C- is a bit low... a C- fighter is someone like cory spinks or delvin rodriguez... angulo is not a top level guy, he's a clear step below.

                  It shouldn't be, but him and his team seem content with having it on PPV.
