    As far as athleticism, it's a toss-up, IMO. Neither has brilliant stamina. Eubank's stiffness offsets any athleticism he has. He's not flowing like a a truly athletic fighter would be.
    Not sayin Eubank is future ATG far from it at this point.but I deff think he is more athletic and a bit faster.I don't see this as easy fight for Canelo but hopfully some day we will see it and find out.

      Eubank is very good but I would pick Canelo to win a close fight. I think Canelo is the 2nd best middleweight in the world right behind GGG. Canelo has an iron jaw, very, fast accurate and powerful combinations and wicked body punches.It would be a great, close fight but I give the edge to Canelo.

          Closer to the way I see it.But I would pick D Jacobs to beat Canelo bad style for Canelo imo.

            But isn’t Eubank fight super middleweight now? Wonder if he could just shred those pounds off.... it would definitely be a war!

              A high output(more openings) sloppy brawler(super counterable) with neither the power(Canelo didnt get hurt by Golovkin, Canelo will counter even more) or chin (like Golovkin who took a lot of punishment) to trouble him or keep him overly focused on the defensive and not countering him on literally eveything he throws?

              People use their bias(or worship) to cloud their judgement. Seems like a gimme matchup wise for Canelo. Only advantage he would have is stamina. And against a good counterpuncher when you have neither good power or chin, sounds less than favorable.

                He lost to BJS, a lesser fighter than Canelo in all aspects. Canelo wins this one in a one-sided UD.

                  Canelo is by far the most complete boxer

                    Jr beats her, Candelita knows where she stands at 160 now. Bought off judges could only get her a draw she got whooped so badly.
