Comments Thread For: Reynoso: Canelo's Best is Coming in Second Stage of His Career

[Blond Beast]

I have to admit, he's earned my respect over the years

Same. At one point I thought he was pretty flat footed. He’d have to step back and reset after all his combos. I still don’t know if he’s capable of really pushing and getting into a high punch count in a round. Maybe he won’t ever have to. But his footwork, defence, has really improved. When Kovalev got stumbled Nelo ended it in a blink. Still I’d like to see him in a fight that forces him to really increase his output. He reminds me of Oscar in that u know at sum point he’s going to take a round or two off. He always finishes strong though. I know the 12th round is worth the same on the judges paper as the first round, even if the commentators always give the impression that the “championship” rounds are worth more. But boxing used to be until someone couldn’t toe the line, so I understand how being the guy winning the last rounds effects the perspective. Beterbiev vs any top guy would make my day at this point. Heck vs anybody.

He going to test positive?

I dont follow Canelo as avid as some on here do.. how many fights in his multi fight deal does he have left?

Could that be the possible insight into hand picked fights?

We’ll see what happens. He could actually retire now and be considered the best middleweight of all time.

dumbest comment I've read on here in quite some time.....and that's tough to accomplish.

That's the dumbest comment? Coming from you who thinks Crawford could be in the HOF if he were to retire right now?

[Death_Adder]

Hopefully Canelo starts taking some real challenges instead of wasting the rest of his prime fighting guys like Rocky Fielding, Kovalev, and BJS

Like who.

Name some names.

He still has 8 fights left on his 11 fight deal. Started with the Rocky Fielding fight in December of 18. He got $15 million guaranteed then he has 10 fights at $35 million guaranteed for a total of $365 million.
Fielding, Jacobs, and Kovalev are the first 3 of that deal.

Now I know you just started watching boxing.

Arturo Gatti and Hamed are in the hall of fame, you don't think Crawford is getting in? Stfu
