He's younger, has a great chin, has fought better opposition, has more experience fighting in these big events.
Edit
2000 won the Junior World Championships in Budapest, Hungary as a Light Welterweight
2002 won the Asian Games in Busan, South Korea as a Light Middleweight.
2003 won the World Championships in Bangkok, Thailand as a Middleweight
2004 Middleweight Olympic Silver Medalist as a member of the Kazakh Olympic Team.
In terms of big events G has as much or more than Canelo.

Yes the judges are in Oscar's pocket, I agree. But Canelo lacks stamina, footwork and sheer activity. He's going to get ground down. The judges will give him everything they can, but only up to a point.

BUT styles make fights and I can honestly see Canelo clearly winning. Moving around the ring does Canelo no good. Canelo should box center ring, slip and counter. Canelos quick reflexes will be very very telling the 1st 5rds. Meaning he will only have to win 2 more rds after that to secure a win assuming theres no KD's. As long as Canelo keeps his D tight and sustains a lil higher than normal punch count he will win a 7-5 type decision.

The same way the referee always seemed to judge things in Floyd or Oscars favor,that should be true for Canelo as well.It takes a slight underdog like Canelo and makes him a slight favoriteLast edited by TonyGe; 05-24-2017, 11:09 AM.
