I can't see anyone 100% beating Canelo, he's proven himself against all styles and has a granite chin.
Lightheavy - Beterbiev has the natural size/strength to bash him up and Bivol the size/skill to outpoint him. Whether they can do it is another story. In fact several light-heavyweights give him a challenge.
Supermiddle - Smith gets stopped. Saunders and Plant have funky/slick styles to trouble him but get outpointed. Benavidez outpointed/stopped.
Middle - He's never going back to 160 but Charlo and Andrade have no chance of outpointing him.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
He does have a great chin, but I think he has lost to more than 3 already. Decent fighter, but seems a bit rigged.
No Ones mentioned Golovkin?
Golovkin has and can beat him again
The thing with Canelo is you need to either be a rock hard and bigger cunt and just bully him or keep him on the end of a great jab and out box him.
Look what a tiny Amir Khan did for half the fight (he was landing that jab with ease it just had no power to keep Canelo away), Yeah he got put in a temporary coma but we all knew that would happen.
I'd fancy a 100% fully fit Saunders to beat him on points (Saunders has WAY better footwork and speed) and Beterbiev to Be able to bully him around and win that way.
Ah so fighters of today to beat the roided up bastard? I guess a list of All-Timers would get too damn long.
Let's see here
My A#1 with a bullet is Andre Ward. I don't care how long he's been out of the game I don't care if he ever laces the gloves up again, he'd school Canelo...but seeing how he's retired for the time beign I'll list 3 more.
#1. Artur Beterbiev
#2. Dimitry Bivol
#3. Caleb Plant
To me it depends on what is meant by "beat". If it means getting the decision, forget it. Only way of getting a "W" on the books against Ginger is by KO..... and then you have a 90% chance.
As for the responses from the rest of the knowledgeable gentlemen.......
Yes absolutely. But see note above. It would have to be by KO to get the nod.
Yes, Beterbiev would certainly ruin Canelo, which is precisely why he'll never get the chance.
Slick southpaws AND.... orthodox fighters cause Canelo problems. He's been outboxed countless times. Power is an issue, though.
Did you say "rigged"? As in he's a rigged fighter? Pretty sure what you meant, and yes....... everything about Canelo fights screams "RIGGED."
Absolutely..... Golovkin DID beat Canelo the first time around. But there again that cursed word "beat." He beat Ginger to all us knowledgeable fans..... but didn't get the nod. Weird, huh?
Yes..... Khan was pitching a shutout when he got caught by that "Teofilo Stevenson-like" right hand. Only punch needed from Ginger. Floyd did the same thing, but escaped without getting caught.
With BJS it'd be more of the same. Ginger getting a boxing lesson as long as Saunders could avoid getting tagged.
Haha! My favorite quip (about the list of All-Timers being too damn long).
On Ward I'm not so sure. He'd get dragged into the most ridiculous catchweight imaginable (something Team Ginger was sure Ward couldn't handle coming from his fat and lazy retired status).
The rest of the deck would be so stacked it would make WWE seem real in comparison.
Well Andre Ward has pull like nobody else Canelo would fight has pull (bar Floyd). The fight would be in California(Oakland) not Vegas, catchweight wouldn't be a thing (not that Ward would agree to).
The others might be facing an uphill battle, but that's why I think Plant is the guy to do it. He's slick and he has pop, he's got quick hands and size. However he is relatively inexperienced which might be something that piques the interest of Canelo's management.
