      Speaking of Canelo you rarely see shredded Mexican boxers

        Depends on the guy. You don't want to get TOO lean in the ring. I'd say 10-12%BF is a good number to be around.

            Fatigue quicker, cramp up, lose strength, pull something, lose punch resistance, or all of the above lol. You want to find a sweet spot when it comes to your body weight.

              The top guys 6-10% body fat.

              Morales would have been 10-15%, lots of Mexican guys are never really ripped like African-American athletes.

                  Disturbingly low at weigh ins sometimes. I'd assume most top 10 caliber & serious prospect guys are under 10% at 160 & lower. Seems like the bigger weight divisions tend to have a lil extra body fat. And obviously at HW some of those guys are legit at overweight body fat percentages.
