Before you start referring to Floyd Mayweather's Majority Decision over Alvarez, keep in mind that Canelo was extremely inexperienced when 2 of the 3 judges voted against him.
Also remember how badly Whitaker crumbled when he fought a true striker in Felix Trinidad. Whitaker literally sat down 6-10 times to avoid being pummeled.
All that being said, pretty obvious that Canelo is actually a hybrid of Whitaker and Tito. Canelo's defense and ring generalship is some of most underrated skills ion Boxing history. Also remembering that Whitaker had almost no power and would be walked down vicously by Canelo.
Whitaker and Alvarez would be a 154 -155 fight to accommodate Whitaker, who was 154 champion.
Outcome:
Canelo KO4 Whitaker or win by DQ even sooner if they had a ref that was intolerant of Whitakers attempts to avoid a fight.
