I still see Mosley losing early, unless Canelo is shitter than we think
Ok I may have come across as a bit of a cheerleader for Alvarez in my post.

He does have a high percentage of inside the distance wins though, some of them late too. Ndou has never been stopped (I think) so won't hold that against him. He has shown vulnerability in a few fights but this is most likely down to his inexperience.

I'm not saying he is big puncher the same way Foreman was but he is definitely powerful both Rhodes and Hatton both said they were shocked by his power. Granted Mosley is a level above them even now.

Mosley can definitely last the distance but I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't. I'm very excited to see it. Mosley could shock us and Alvarez could look very average, It could be a toe to toe war or Mosley could be blown away very early. It's interesting as it's one of those fights where it's very hard to make a confident prediction. I have to go with Alvarez winning but imagine if Mosley can turn back the clock!
