I think Canelo's technique and skill set look pretty damn solid for his age. I'm a fan, hopefully he can finally get one of these legit guys in the ring with him.

No announcement yet.
IMO Canelo is way over-hyped (he is hyped as the next superstar)

Vice versa, if you are being given superstar hype, it doesn't mean you have superstar abilities.
I'm talking about his abilities, not his pull power. (which GB of De La Hoya are really pushing for.) At the moment he isn't a superstart fighter for me, only in name, not in the ring. As was said, he needs solid competition. Old Mosley has out and out been his biggest fight.

I think he could be the real deal but he needs that one good victory that sets him in the next level.. but imo it HAS to be with someone naturally in his weight class. Not the Cotto/May/Mosley, 'cause then there'd be the obvious size different and people are gonna clamor about that or some other crap.

the problem is Canelos promoter doesn't believe he is a thoroughbred. If they did he would have already faced a quality opponent- K9, Trout, Lara, Vanes, Angulo, Molina, Rosado, a healthy Kirkland. GBP big wigs have spent their whole lives around top shelf fighters and can easily recognize talent, yet they match Canelo rediculously careful-tells ya something
