    An aggressive counter puncher is how I'd describe his style.

    Very versatile and beautiful to watch.

      I want him to fight Beterbiev though. Just to see how great he really is.
      Alvarez whoops Beets

      Beets is eastern euro caveman with primitive skills compared to Alvarez

        Alvarez got much better once he found his identity and started fighting aggressively

          oooo so this why fleet footed Mexican fighters are hard to find

          Long torso Mexicans So the style evolved to hit the body where there plenty of target
          I feel like Lara is an extreme example. most guys are going to have slow feet when compared to Lara. Very few people can move like him. Andrade and BJS are probably who people think of but they are bigger than Lara and thus slower. A more experienced Canelo shouldnt have major issues with their movement.

              I think he is a complete fighter who does everything well and some things great. He is usually an attacker with a very good defense and quick reactions. he is a good counter puncher and also throws fast accurate combinations to head and body. He has very good power in both hands and he has an iron jaw. His body attack might be the best in the sport. He could be better on stamina an punch output per fight. It is not bad but it could be better. Some top middleweights throw over 800 good punches a fight. Canelo averages closer to 500 punches a fight. Sometimes he has to take a round or two off against top guys to get his wind and strength back and he usually loses those rounds.He is such a good all around boxer puncher that it is hard to put a label on him except to say he is very hard to beat.

                Alvarez VS Andrade is dream fight of mines

                Andrade is an awkward high volume pressure fighter who brings it to Alvarez

                If anything exploits Alvarez stamina issues, it’s Andrade’s activity

                  He's like a bulldozer coming at you in slow motion, but the bulldozer is like half the size of a midget. EASY WORK!

                    Flat footed power puncher that occasionally moves his head. Good boxing skills and timing.

                      See man; this is what I have been saying man. Clownelo has no skills, it's just fishnets that's been carefully guiding his career man. We all know fishnets has no skills.
