Any thoughts? The question is what 147 or 140 fighter will Saul fight? |

I hope they do lace up against each other this year. I'm not as high on Canelo as most people seem to be and it's not just due to the opposition he's faced. His defense is mediocre and that's putting it nicely, he's not this power puncher fans and others make him out to be, he's just heavy handed
The only issue I can see Floyd having in a Canelo bout is the size of Canelo. Canelo is a young bull and he'd be we'll served to try to bully Mayweather against the ropes and land those body shots. Ultimately I see Mayweather beating him in a competitive fight. Mayweather's boxing IQ and his defense will carry him thru this fight. Canelo is too easy to hit and those shots are coming from 140 and 147lbers. Imagine what Floyd or even a legitimate Jr. Middleweight would do to him. Fightnews has reported that Canelo's opponent is likely going to be Trout but Cotto is still in the mix to land the fight. Why Miguel's name is still being considered is beyond my comprehension outside of him being a name fighter. |
