    I’d still say Oscar but Canelo is closing the gap.

      I think he’d stop him. Naturally bigger fighter. Canelo’s natural weight is 160-168. Oscar’s was 147.

        I think today's Canelo is much better than Oscar was on his best day. Oscar was undefeated at age 26 and then he lost 6 times in his next 14 fights. He lost to Trinidad, twice to Mosley and once to Mayweather and was KOed by Hopkins and Pacquiao. Canelo was already very good but he just started to get much better at age 26 and went on a great roll with no losses. He just gets better and better not worse like Oscar did at age 26.

          Tbh Canelo lost to Cotto & GGG twice. Should have 4 losses. ODLH greater at the moment.

            plus, Oscar fought anyone. He didn't play the A Side BS to pick and choose
            Except he did that all the time.

              He has a hard on hatred for Canelo.

                Canelo legacy is far greater than Oscar de la hoya.

                Canelo resume is amazing!!!

                  De La Hoya resume kills Canelo's. Only argument one could make is he lost some of those big fights but if you're going straight resume it's Oscar easily

                    Bro..u just lost all credibility.
                    If you think Miguel Cotto beat Canelo you don’t know **** about boxing. Canelo absolutely outboxed and dominated Cotto... and I’m a huge cotto fan of a poster of him in my living room.

                      Oscar at middle wasnt anything like hes prime.He started at super feather.Its the equivalent of judging how Canelo does at cruiser or heavy in the twilight of hes career.
