I’m not sure how the Vegas odds would be, but I have a gut feeling how these fights would play out...

160

Andrade
—————
I believe that Andrade is a good fighter, but not quite at Canelo’s level. I think that this fight would play out somewhat similar to the Jacobs fight actually. Canelo wins a close UD.

Charlo
————
I think that this would be the toughest matchup for Canelo at 160, actually. I think that Charlo is too long, lean, and quick on his feet for Canelo. I think Canelo would be outboxed by him, but not by too much. Canelo can give anyone trouble if he lands well. Split decision win for Charlo.

Derevyanchenko
—————————
I think that Derevyanchenko is a tough, strong bulldozer with a metal chin. He gives Canelo a difficult fight, but I still think Canelo comes out on top. Canelo wins UD.

GGG
———
We already know how these two guys match up, the problem is that GGG is a couple of years older now, and he’s just been through a war with Derevyanchenko to boot. Canelo by UD.

168

Smith
———-
Callum Smith is good ... really good. I think this matchup presents the most mystery to me, as I don’t really know how their styles would affect the other in a fight. I could see it going either way here, but I’m going to say Canelo by MD.

Plant
———
Plant is a solid fighter, but I think Canelo will turn this into a war and take it in the championship rounds. Canelo by late-round TKO.

Benavidez
——————
This guy’s bad news for Canelo. I think Benavidez roughs him up pretty bad in this one, but I have it going the distance. Benavidez wins by UD.

Saunders
—————-
Saunders has great movement and a flawless record, but his toughest opponent so far has only been Chris Eubanks, Jr. I think that he’ll come out boxing pretty and then Canelo will catch him on the chin mid rounds in a fight reminiscent of the Khan bout. Canelo by mid-round KO.

175

Bivol
———-
I think this would be an excellent fight, actually. So good, they’d have to do it again. I’m calling this one a Draw.

Beterbiev
—————
Beterbiev, in my opinion, is the Deontay of the LHW division. I think he’s probably one of the few boxers who could actually drop, or even stop, Canelo. I’m going to go with Beterbiev by 6th round KO.

[Phenom]

Maybe Plant.

Plant is the worst match up for him at 168

[Vegemil]

Plant is the worst match up for him at 168

Outboxing Uzzy didn't prove it to me.

Whenever there is a strong possibility of a fight happening you can get the odds om that fight. Just do a google search and you can find out the odds different places have on fights that are being talked about. The odds on GGG vs Canelo are almost even. Last time I checked Canelo was about a 6 to 5 favorite. Some of those young excellent champions at 168 and 175 will probably also be about even money with Canelo and Beterbiev might be the favorite. Canelo would probably be about a 3 to 1 favorite to beat Jermall and Andrade but that is just a guess. If Canelo starts talking like he might fight any of these guys you will be able to get odds. Not all betting places have the same odds and they vary a little from place to place. Kovalev was a 4 to 1 underdog because the bookies knew he was shot to hell. They are good at what they do because they do it for a living. None of the boxers on your list are shot. Canelo will be a solid favorite over Jermall and Andrade because he appears to be a much better fighter. Canelo was a 3 to 1 betting favorite to beat Jacobs when he fought him. Canelo was a 13 to 1 favorite to beat Fielding.

No one would be a favorite against Canelo BUT I think Caleb Plant is the only one who has the tools to beat him.

I'm not big on Caleb Plant either. To me, he's a guy who is imitating Roy Jones. Not as fast or powerful but fights the same way.

That would be a problem for Canelo. I don't think anyone else really troubles him. He has better technique than anyone at 160, he is too fast for those at 175. Beterbiev is basically a bigger GGG, with less polish.

168 is the division where I think the most. I think Caleb is big problems. Benavidez would get beat, it'll be a fight but he's there to be hit. Saunders is interesting because he's like a s/hit version of Caleb, yet wins. Callum Smith is interesting too because I like this dude but I'm not sure how that fight with Canelo goes.

Canelo will be favored against everyone he faces but 168, he's not walking through any of those guys. He's going to have big big problems against those guys.

Outboxing Uzzy didn't prove it to me.

Styles make fights.

You'd think a bigger, younger Canelo would walk through small guys like Lara and Floyd... Didn't happen.

So, again, styles make fights.
