    Which GGG victim would give Canelo the toughest fight?

    Since Canelo's taking a tune up before the GGG fight I'd like to see him fight one of GGG's former foes just to see how Canelo would do against them.

    But which one would give Canelo the toughest fight? I'm stumped on this one.

    Who do you guys think?



    David Lemieux, Willie Monroe Jr, Martin Murray, Curtis Stevens, or Rosado???

      Gun to my head I'd probably pick Martin Murray but you can never count Lemieux's power out. He would definitely land on Canelo.

        Maybe Monroe, but otherwise Canelo beats them easily.

          Monroe's Southpaw stance could really give Canelo some problems.

            I don't think it would be easy since Canelo's never fought above 155 but I do think that he'd beat them all. Chepo Reynosa would have the perfect gameplan for all of them.

              I voted for Murray but I think Lemieux would be 2nd because of his fast hands and dangerous two handed power. Canelo would beat all of them but he won't beat GGG in my opinion.

                  Murray would probably be a tough fight, Monroe has some chance of making it a tough fight... The rest ought to be pretty easy for Canelo. Lemieux feels like a mixed bag in ways but wouldn't expect it to be a huge hurdle for Canelo, except that if it were at 160 Lemieux would be way the biggest fighter he's fought.

                    Murray
                    Lemieux
                    Stevens
                    Monroe

                    Monroe is very similar, arguably less skilled, version of Lara. Don't see him giving problems. Murray is a big, skilled guy who's hard to knock down. Canelo should still win a UD12, but it would have its moments.

                    Lemieux & Stevens have some power to bother Canelo. Probably first guys Canelo would fight whose power he would have to respect.
