Thread: Canelo vs Pac??

The Pac vs Floyd thing takes several turns..

One thing not often explored though is that given how handily Floyd out-boxed young Alvarez, how does Saddo see an encounter between Alvarez and Pac going?

It IS difficult for me to envision Pac being able to handle Canelo. The size, power and chin advantage is pretty immense isn't it!!

Canelo was a fucking test for MAyweather, no mistake. One he passed with flying colours though!

You would need to think Canelo stops pacman

Please clarify?

Yes one would assume Canelo would be able to weather and overwhelm Pac due to his size.

Which was kind of the point of the thread, illuminating a serious obstacle to Pac fans as myself to Pac handling Floyd.

Pacman likes to attack attack attack so with that style your going to get hit and Canelos to big and strong for pacman. So when Canelo lands he's going to hurt pacman and with his power I would expect Canelo to stop pacman.

Who would win the Margareto that fought Pac Man or Canelo?

I think Canelo would crush MArgarito.

MArgarito's length for his weight slows him down a bit and I think Canelo would be able to bang him out at some point.

That being said the man up above had what I would probably consider the best response.

If I had to bet, was forced to, I would put the money on Canelo.

Fortunately I like both these fighters anyway

I really respect Floyd as the best for his skills but he's just such a fucking toss bag!

To be honest, his total fights are boring but his highlight reels with all his landed counter punches are terrific to watch.

Pac is always good to watch!

How so, amigo?

PAC wins. On a scale that has Angulo at one end and Floyd at the other, Manny would be right up there close to Floyd.

Of course but make no mistake, in terms of effectiveness, Canelo ranks right up there on that side as well, given a median kind of weight between them all. Canelo is the bigger, stronger, younger man and is very fast for such a guy. We know is wasn't enough for Floyd's style. It could be enough for Manny's though.

Nobody watching Canelo's overall performance could fail to draw the conclusion that the kid is both talented and tough and strong. One of the strongest Mexican boxers of all time and still one of the possible futures of boxing at only 23 and such experience.

Turned out to be a no contest. In his own words, Canelo said he could not find Floyd. I'm wondering if he could find Manny, if Manny didn't want him to.

Marquez found manny.

A young faster and more powerful canelo would find manny as well.

Mexicans find manny.

Margarito found Manny. Sometimes bad things happen when Mexicans find Manny!

I wouldn't want to see the fight. I have no desire to watch Pac die. His fans, yes. But not him

Intriguing matchup, Max. I get mixed feelings about this matchup as it can go either way.

If pacman boxes more and uses his legs, I think he can when.

Margarito was his biggest opponent to date but I'm not going to use that fight as a measuring tool because canelo and margo have no resemblance in styles.

Canelo is an economical fighter who fights in spurts. He may be bigger but dude isn't a physical type fighter who imposes his size on his opponents.

He has questionable stamina too and when he tries to rest, pacman could swarm him and pile up points.

Only way canelo could win is by KO imo. He's just not active enough to outpoint pacman.

Pac of a few years ago would take Canelo IMO. Pac had the "David vs Goliath" fight down to a science.

Don't get me wrong, it'd be a tough affair and he'd take some heavy leather in the process at times, but he'd get the decision.

People get so caught up in power, power, power.

Guys like Floyd and Pac made careers out of avoiding power. Power is no good if it can't land, and Pac was a slick motherfucker.

I think he's washed up now though and I think right now Canelo would murder him. I don't think Pac is gonna get by Bradley anyway.
