Canelo has fought better opponents...but
If he beats Cotto and Oscar lets him fight the Kazak they should do it in Mexico city.
Azteca Stadium with 140k packed in? It would be a scene but I don't see it happening. At least not soon. I'd still pick GGG. I don't understand why this fight is so talked about, I've only seen about 6 people say they'd pick Canelo counting accumulations from multiple sites.
what a fight this would be
canelo could go up a bit and GGG down, how about that?
i think id bet on GGG but it wouldnt surprise me if canelo pulls it out of his knickers
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
GGG wins easily at 154 or 160. Canelo too one dimensional and not enough power to trouble GGG.
As long as neither fighter sacrifices in weight loss or gain to make it happen, I'd pick it as a FOTY.
All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
Canelo handles pressure fighters pretty well if they are used up by the time he face them; Kirkland, Angulo, Baldomir etc... still has the image in my head of when I saw him fight the first time, getting rocked bad by Cotto in the first round. GGG wins it no doubt, how he wins depends on the type of drama he want to give the fans. Total ring generalship in GGGs favor, Canelo has problem with that facing skilled boxers. And GGG is one skilled fighter, oh yes.
But, absent Mayweather, Canelo has to be the top junior middleweight with his wins over Kirkland, Trout, Angulo and Lara. The Ring Magazine, for what it is worth, ranks him as the best junior middleweight other than Mayweather, and Canelo has been slowing moving up in weight by fighting at 155. Thus, it would be pit the best middleweight versus the best available junior middleweight/rising middleweight. There's something to be said for that.
By the way, the same logic could be applied to Ward-GGG. I don't know many fans picking GGG in that fight. Most people pick Ward in an ugly, mauling fight. Don't you? Froch-GGG is more of even fight on paper.
