as most guys in here are saying , beterbiev . Off the top of my head I can't think of anyone I would pick to beat him right now .Comment

This. I ain't gonna say that there aren't guys that might be able to beat him, but across 2 or maybe 3 divisions there's a plentiful supply of very good fighters that he can or should beat and without any disrespect to the dude we know that the close decisions are likely to edge his way.
Honestly don't see him losing til retirement unless he voluntarily goes into a passing of the mantle kinda scenario late on to the next annointed Vegas/WBC superstar. .Comment

On even terms, probably no one right now...if he used his A side powers, I can't imagine anyone KOing him right now under 175.
Canelo does benefit imo from the fact that he knows he can play it rather safe and still will get rounds he needs...see his fight vs Kovalev for a good example of that...this helps to not get KOed.
I think some guys should be favored in a neutral venue right now vs Canelo...but you're right that no one is favored vs him at 175 and below outside of maybe AB and Bivol and maybe a couple other guys.Comment
