    Canelo vs spence is not a size issue but a skill issue

    Spence is taller, has a longer reach, and is a massive ww. He shows up fight night weighing 160-165 lbs. Yes, canelo will be about 15 lbs heavier, but all the other advantages would go to spence.

    Problem is spence is a one dimensional fighter and his style is all wrong for canelo.

      I’m not sure there’s a fighter alive I’d favor over Canelo with a weight disadvantage. All bulls hit aside, he’s just too good. He’ll hurt them.

        I agree

        Also Canelo is built like a fighter a tank with a thick neck granit chin with superb skills where as Spence is built more like an athlete thin neck legs small waist and in a fight the natural fighter wins and wins big.

        This is a no contest for canelo.

              and Bivol

              it tells you how good ginger is, when you have to name guys who are like two divisions above his natural weight to beat him

              Canelo's not even a big MW, he's more a 'tweener somewhere between 154-160

              only reason he'll keep fighting at SMW is, once you go so high in weight, you can't come down, unless you want to get Roy Jon'd

                Canelo would steamroll Spence. Canelo skillwise is up there. Am a massive Spence fan but nah Canelo’s head movements alone would give him issues

                  Good god you’re thick. Height and reach aren’t the only factors when it comes to size. Canelo is a bigger man.
