Canelos a mediocre fighter. True "hypejob," IMO

[Showtime..]

They got weight classes for a reason,, no catchweight, manny has no chance vs 170 lbs canelo.. Maybe the super manny of 2008-2010 but not the present version, though I would give manny a better chance than bradley

"Maybe" ? Lullzzzz. That Manny would make Canelo quit in under 10.
I could see the modern-boxer Pacquiao beating him to a UD. Not as badly as he did Margarito though, I over-exaggerated that.

I don't think he's done enough to completely separate himself from the rest of 154lbers, but at least he's fighting them and is having competitive fights. He isn't an A-level fighter, more like B/B+. He's getting the victories though, which is what counts for most people.

Sorry don't take it personal bro and I don't mean to offend anyone.


I have nothing against Canelo. I just think he's an overrated boxer

Wow, I appreciate such a respectful reply. I respect your opinion and the thread is turning into an actual discussion, glad to see that. I personally think Canelo will improve, he has showed growth throughout his career and believe he will continue to do so. I just wish he would have a dominating performance that would make everyone stop, think and actually dwell on his future in a bright manner. Till now he has yet to pull off such feat but I think his time is coming..

I just don't see it happening unless it's a catch weight..

[ramses07]

he's a B-B+ fighter, but he's got the "it" factor so he's an "A" fighter. nothing wrong with that.

not everybody is may weather or manny.

and plus canelo's willing to fight anybody, so I'm glad he wins these close fights especially against lara, who was unwilling to engage.

[niceyboo3]

He got completely outclassed by Floyd. Austin Trout isn't very good, and he barely beat him. Angulo is an old caveman. And he just looked terrible against Lara IMO.



154 is weak as hell.

No he did not. I'm a Maweather fan and I'm talking about running. That was not boxing HE Ran!!!! Lara shouldn't be on any network again. Canelo tried to kill him for all his Cuban boxing school woofing. Canelo is the real deal. watch and see.. Canelo Cotto will be awesome. Cotto will fight. Sweet science my a$$ yeah h0mo sweet.

[cupocity303]

He has yet to dominate any top fighter. Trout fight very close and if it wasn't for the kd it would have been a draw IMO and he lost to Lara IMO, 7-5. Plus angulo was a shot fighter and not to mention extremely basic and limited.

He will lose bad against the guys at his real weight class (middleweight).

Damn, can we at least wait a few years until the fight is ancient history before we make these type of fallacious, negative posts.

[joesaiditstrue]

He is no hypejob didn't gas either.He did better than expected, but that is it no Canelo fans other than him and his mom openly saying he won the fight. That fight was a draw for Canelo best case scenario for him . But we don't live there now do we.

that's bullshit, I picked Lara to win and picked Angulo to beat him as well, check my post history

Canelo won the fight

your argument is total bullshit

He does have youth on his side and to his credit He does seem to have a genuine interest to fight anyone.


We'll see. I'm definitely not rooting against the kid
