    like i said in another thread: B-Hop would take Canelo all the way back to preschool and leave him lookin like a confused toddler trying to find Waldo.

      Canelo by decision in a *VERY* controversial manner in a horrendous fight full of clinching after single punches. Someone probably hits the canvas...due to roughhousing.

        Canelo will be an ATG that's underrated because he's polarizing.

        Canelo is too slick, too strong, too intelligent for B-Hop.

        Canelo by split decision via slick defense, and power punches to the body and face.

        Bhop would be trying to hug Canelo all night anyway, we don't want to see that fight.

            Canelo. It'll be a close ugly boring fight with two counter punchers and no way in hell does hopkins get a decision against canelo in a close fight.

              Nonsense. I was one of the biggest Hopkins fans. But let’s not forget, this guy struggled with guys like Howard Eastman, and lost twice to Jermain Taylor. Canelo doesn’t have a strong gas tank but he would be way more active and crowd pleasing, winning a UD. Hopkins would cry robbery as per usual.

                B-Hop too skilled, big, strong, long & has better ring generalship & defense.

                  People think Bhops amazing because he fought until he was 50.

                  I've been watching him fight for decades. Not as special as people think. Just very crafty with good clinching.

                    Prime Bhop will do to Canelo what he did to Oscar De La Hoya.
