Canelo would end up like Margarito.
I do actually yes. Bigger and better version all around.
Better footwork, better jab, his upper body movement is lightyears ahead of Marquez's - Great fighter but a pretty one-dimensional one who only ever shone against offensive minded fighters. A more educated right hand. He has greater ability to set shots up than Marquez who is reliant on facing wreckless opposition - Manny, Katsidis, Diaz and so on.
Canelo isn't going to be stood static letting him zip in and out he's an elite counterpuncher, twice his size who will step back, time him and put him clean out. He's all wrong for Manny even without such a size differential.
People will pick Manny on the basis they can't ever be proven 100% wrong and GGG fans are also Manny fans so they'll take Manny but they don't truly believe it and I really do hope boxing fans don't seriously believe he'd do to Canelo what he did to Margarito, its emotions that are talking. He'd straight up swat him like a fly.

Im not for one second saying that canelo is better than pcquiao but you know what i would favour him stylistically and with the size difference (which is pretty considerable) to beat pacquiao. id favour him against the others but maidana under garcia could possibly chin him at some point.
