Canelo wins in my opinion. I think Ward is very much overrated. Canelo has faster hands, hits harder and takes a punch better. Canelo can beat him at close to mid range fighting and Canelo is just murder to the body. Sure Ward is much bigger but if he has to make 168 it would weaken him. He out grew 168 by 2015 and said himself he could no longer comfortably make 168 and was never returning to that weight.

Well, Canelo having such star power means that Ward wouldn't have the ref and judges on his side for once and that would make a big difference. A ref who shut down the dirty spoiling tactics Ward employs (jab and grab, lead with the head, clinching and mauling, low blows, elbows etc.) would greatly nullify his overall effectiveness.
In a straight boxing match Canelo is the superior fighter and would win.
