GGG has 19 KOs in a row and against mostly decent opponents. I have watched boxing forever and I can't remember anyone knocking out 19 fighters in a row of this quality. It is a bad time to be a top contender in the middleweight division.
Canelo at Middleweight

As long as Canelo doesn't get Ko'd and the fight is held in Texas, no one is beating Canelo, period.
I never seen judges so in love with a fighter.Comment

Good post..
Haven't seen a wrecking ball like this since tito Trinidad at welter n 154..
Ggg beats everyone at 160
Canelo vs Quillen is an interesting matchup...
I would favor canelo over all the guys like lee, macklin, n'dam, geale, etc
I think Curtis stevens could be dangerous for caneloComment

the reason some non-title fights are fought over the weight is because they are usually tune ups and the fighters have less time to prepare. canelo has months to prepare and yet he's fought his last 3 fights at 155. this is a main event ppv and 2 guys in the same division are fighting at 155. it makes no sense. he doesn't want to struggle to make weight but he doesn't want to fight at 160 because he would be killed. hence the canelo-division.Many fighters set the weight limit of their non title fights a pound or two over the limit of the weight class they campaign in. What Canelo is doing fighting non title fights at 155 is not unusual at all and many other fighters do the exact same thing. If he had a fight for a 154 pound world title I think he could make weight.Comment

The only one I would be worried about, is GGG. The rest of the division should be beatable for Canelo. Doesn't mean he wins them all, it means I think he could beat anyone in the MW division, however, GGG IS the one fight that I could see him losing...Comment

You really think he would get killed at 160 though? I can't see it....the reason some non-title fights are fought over the weight is because they are usually tune ups and the fighters have less time to prepare. canelo has months to prepare and yet he's fought his last 3 fights at 155. this is a main event ppv and 2 guys in the same division are fighting at 155. it makes no sense. he doesn't want to struggle to make weight but he doesn't want to fight at 160 because he would be killed. hence the canelo-division.Comment

is he even good at 154? trout, mayweather, and lara he looked pretty bad in all those fights. sure if he finds an angulo at 160 he could probably beat them but most the guys at 160 aren't punching bags so i'm sure he would struggle even more than he has at 154.Comment
