Canelo at Middleweight

[Cut Man]

We all see that Canelo is no longer comfortable making 154. And after he beats Kirkland, his next fight should be at the Middleweight limit of 160.

But who, out of the current crop at 160 do you think Canelo beats?

I believe he beats everyone, including GGG.

What is your opinion?

Does he beat, Cotto, Lee, Murray, Saunders, Quillin, Eubank, etc?

[PK3434]

I think he should be a middleweight and would be more comfortable there. I think GGG knocks him out though. Most of the other fights would be good, with canelo winning the majority of them..but he could also lose to a few.

Canelo beats Cotto Lee Saunders Eubank right now, loses to Golovkin brutally and loses a decision to Murray.

He also beats Quacklin that POS.

[ИATAS]

I think GGG beats him, Quillin would be 50/50. I would favor him over Cotto (in a good fight). Not sure how he would do against Murray or Lemieux.

GGG and Canelo needs to happen at some point

[babynuts]

GGG destroys him at MW. I'm definitely not a GGG fanboy but even Floyd started walking him down. I just don't see what Canelo brings that can beat Golovkin. He might have some success and land a few but i think Golovkin walks him down and traps him and gets him out of there, or a referee stoppage.

I think he could beat pretty much everybody else, but some might be competitive

He's lose to GGG badly though he would last longer than Cotto simply because of size. Cotto would lose 3 rounds max against Canelo... I would think he would beat Quillon, it's pretty sad though that I think that's a close fight. He'd probably lose to Murray and well... there is a reason he's had 3 fights at MW but is only fighting JMW. He doesn't have a chance against many MW's in my opinion, not A or B level MW's anyway.

[Cut Man]

The reason I say Canelo beats them all including GGG. Is because GGG showed me in the Murray fight that his defence is suspect and a fighter with good movement ,power and aggression would cause him some major problems.

Why do you think the Quillin fight would be 50/50?

And... Canelo against Mayweather didn't show you Canelo is total **** in front of elite competition? Canelo and GGG are the same size, GGG would be favored to beat Floyd that didn't happen with Canelo for a reason other than size.
