    After all Canelo is the big PPV draw at 154 and the A-side.

    Swift lost to Keith "One time" Thurman. He faces "Showtime" Shawn Porter in about 5 weeks.

    I don't see him beating Canelo at 154. In fact I don't see him going the distance in a loss!
    It took Canelo over a year to gain enough bulk to go from 154 to 160! By the look of his body I honestly highly doubt he can go back to 154!

      Both guys have several asterisks in their careers. Both guys dont jab well and rely on counter punching, timing, and body work. Hell their physical builds are even somewhat similar.

      Danny G could've lost to Herrera, Judah, and even LP. Canelo had razor close fights with Lara, Trout, and GGG with conspiracist Trump supporters even suggesting Cotto beat Canelo (lol).

      Thoughts?
      Do you believe that the Cotto Canelo fight was a 118-110 fight?

        Thank you! I don't see Canelo ever coming down to 147! If anything he's moving to 160!

            Canelo is a tad bit better. However, if everything is equal I might favor Garcia.

                  I had it 116-112. I felt Cotto did his best work ~rounds 5-8.

                  Canelo landed better shots all night long

                    Generally speaking, Garcia seems to me a much more fluid and improvisational fighter; Canelo strikes me as robotic by comparison, but more disciplined.
                    I wasted 20 seconds of my life reading that ****,. Canelo robotic? My god
