Canelo vs. Abraham

[Dr. Uncle]

Canelo, a 155lbs champion, vs. Abraham, a 168lbs champion. Who would win?

They're equally tall, while Abraham got longer arms and Canelo got more weight.

I think that Abraham's power, chin, reach and timing would be a fatal koktail for Canelo. I don't see his advantages in weight, handspeed and youth as toppling Abraham and those three are Canelo's only advantages.

The fight would be at 168lbs, which both comfortably can make.

A bit obsessed with Canelo aren't you?

People want Canelo to fight Golovkin, who I consider more dangerous than Abraham, so it's not like this is a complete mismatch.

Sure buddy. Sure.

[Dr. Uncle]

Sure buddy. Sure.

Canelo actually does have a chance. If Abraham doesn't KO him, then Canelo will win by decision, as usual.

While weight will be an issue for canelo it actually isn't a bad match up stylistically. Never thought of it, good fight I think it would be but I doubt itll happen

Yeah, it probably won't happen, but it would be a good fight. I don't think Canelo would have weight problems, he would not even need to drain himself this time.

Sorry didnt mean hed be drained i mean if he fought him at 164-68 Abraham physicality might be a problem.

[Kaspa9t9]

Do you really think Abraham has the edge on timing?

[Dr. Uncle]

Sorry didnt mean hed be drained i mean if he fought him at 164-68 Abraham physicality might be a problem.

The fight would obviously have to be at 168, a weight that both comfortably can make. The one reason that this fight could be interesting now is that Abraham is not aggressive enough to be guaranteed a KO win, he has slowed down a lot in recent years.
