I predicted it a month ago....
Canelo pressures and his upper body movement is similar to Dmitry Pirog. He'll try to back up Danny and catch him on the ropes over the top with a right hand. Derevianchenko put pressure on Danny, pushed him back and he had some success and Canello is better than Derevianchenko
Canelo is 5’8”, he’s not tall and long like Pirog so the question is, will his upper body movement be enough to make Danny miss or will he get caught at the end of a long, fast jab? If Canelo can't close the gap and Danny doesn't gas out Canelo loses a chess match.
For the record, based upon observations, I see Charlo as one of Canelo's easiest opponents. He's there to be hit, his footwork is just ok and he tries to stand and fight....he's tailor made.
Derevianchenko is a lesser version of Canelo, a step shy of the elites .
The killer is Andrade, I've said before and I’ll say it again, Andrade is Canelo's undoing. Demetrius is bigger than Jacobs, he’s 6’1” and moves in and out and uses a very long jab that has allowed him to control the distance in nearly every fight. Demetrius would be up for Canelo and that makes him too dangerous. Think BJS with power, a nightmare I expect Canelo to avoid.
Gennady will always fight very, very close to Canelo in a 50/50 but he doesn’t have anything Canelo needs and it’s not realistic to think he’ll lift a belt from Demetrius Andrade. GGG is always going to be dangerous for Canelo and for that reason there’s not likely going to be third fight.
Said this a month ago, nothing has really changed.Comment

Andrade and triple duck need to fight each other. It really is bullshït that they're taking soft touches next month while Canelo fought a dangerous opponent.
But by guess that's why Canelo will be remembered years from now, while those two will quickly be forgotten.Comment

I said it would come down to upper body movement a month ago. I also said Andrade, stylistically will be Canelo's undoing.

Spence isn't going to fight Canelo any more than he's fighting Crawford and any mention of his name is a attempt to inject his name were it has no place. Spence fought a light weight and gives changing excuses for not fighting Crawford. By the end of the year Errol will move up to 154 with a new excuse.

Did Pacquiao duck Crawford, or was it the other way around? Are you a Crawford fan, or just a Spence hater?
Spence will face Porter, then the Pacquiao vs. Thurman winner, then maybe Crawford! He would be a fool to do otherwise, especially if Pacquiao beats Thurman! However, if I were Spence, and I had the option of fighting Canelo or Crawford, I would choose Canelo! It would be HUGE in Texas!
I do feel bad for Crawford, (I am a Crawford fan & Bob Arum hater) but I don't see what he can do, other than following the blueprint: Oscar, Floyd, Cotto, Mikey, and Manny!Last edited by Bronx2245; 05-05-2019, 10:00 AM.Comment

That "Lightweight" was also Jr. WW Champion too, just like Terence Crawford! You seemed to have conveniently forgot that part! He was also P4P#3 in the world! You forgot that part too! Has Terence fought anyone in the P4P Top 10? I'm done with you for the day!Spence isn't going to fight Canelo any more than he's fighting Crawford and any mention of his name is a attempt to inject his name were it has no place.

Spence said he's taking the easier route...how much clearer can it get? Spence is ducking Crawford, period, full stop, that's the truth, that's the point. And what does Spence taking the easy route have to do with Pacquiao? Spence is ducking Crawford for easy pickings and everyone out side of the PBC echo chamber heard it, was disappointed and accepted it. This isn't Foxandfriends, you can't just say, "oh well that's not what he meant" or what you see is not what's happening...it's happening.
