    Canelo's maximum weight: Unknown at the moment.
    Canelo's usual weight: 185lbs
    Canelo's minimum weight: 154lbs

    Right now, he has to drain himself of 31lbs to fight. Right now, it's a massive struggle for him.

    He's getting older, which means draining will be more difficult, so I'm pretty sure that soon, we won't seen him fight at 154-155lbs anymore. By 2018, I'm pretty sure that he will only be able to drain himself of around 25lbs, which means he will be forced to fight at at least 160lbs by 2018.

    From then on, he's closing in on the 30s of age. Draining 25lbs in the thirties is much more difficult than draining 31lbs in the twenties. He may be able to drain himself of around 19-21lbs by then, which will leave him at 164-166lbs.

    In other words, at age 30, it's fair to assume that Canelo's maximum draining capacity will be around 19-21 lbs, which will allow him to fight at mimimum 164-166lbs, where he could make his own weightclass for a while.

    When the midthirties knocks on the door, all the unhealthy draining will have caught up to him and he will, at most, be able to drain 12-15 lbs, which means that he, minimum, will be able to drain himself to around 167-170lbs.

    In the late thirties, draining will be impossible for him and it won't even make a difference, as he can't beat anyone at 168lbs and up...

    His body type is a disaster waiting to happen.
    He's in for a bad time If he has to fight against 168lbs fighter a lot of those type of guys can be very rangey and tall obviously with the current state of the 168lbs division he might do okay at the moment DeGale is a pretty **** fighter and Jack... Jack nah nothing special.

    Not looking good for him at all.

      He's in a horrible situation. The moment his draining capacity drops from 31lbs to 25lbs, he will start taking one loss after another.
