    Even though I'm betting on Angulo...

    This is Alvarez' moment to prove himself to fans. This could be his Mayweather-Corales moment in his career.

    Let's see.

      Alvarez might not be the puncher he's made out to be by certain individuals in the media, but he's certainly no pushover, either. Power aside, he throws some seriously wicked combinations and often rips the body very well within those combos.

      I can see a scenario wherein Alvarez shocks a lot of people and shows off his meaner demeanor and punishes Angulo over and over again with combinations.

      Alvarez outboxed Trout because Trout let him.

      Why go toe-to-toe with a guy that you can comfortably beat with your boxing skills?

      I do believe people are dismissing Alvarez simply based on the Mayweather fight who is so different from and better than everyone else.

      Angulo definitely has been out boxed before.

      Angulo is an attractive underdog, but the fact that books still have him has a big underdog says a lot because they aren't in the business of losing money.

      I can see a stoppage but am more inclined to the UD for Canelo.

        Maybe but personally I see it as Angulo performed so much better against Lara then people expected knockdowns aside he was cutting the ring down fairly well and then landing sick bodyshots.I'd favour Canelo by decision stoppage isn't totally outta the question hoping Perro can pull of the upset
