    Canelo with a 20 lb weight advantage takes on the great Joey Napoles

    I think in my mind even a midget Napoles would out-box Canelo

    Napoles was small for welterweight, never mind higher weights

    The size difference would be ludicrous

    Give Napoles some PEDs

    Yeah, Napoles wasnt built for higher than 147.

    The guy was really made for 140.

    Yup

    It's a testament to his greatness that he still managed to be an ATG at 147

    Imagine him at 140 right now.

    He'd eat Prograis, Taylor, and Ramirez alive.

    Those guys would have trouble with Adolph Pruitt, never mind Mantequilla

    Incidentally, Pruitt has to be the only black dude called "Adolph" in history

    Without the unfair stigma attached to the name, I'm sure there would be piles of black kids named adolph by the parents of big Kentucky wildcat hoop fans

    Canelo has become so overrated it’s disgusting.

    I’m currently seeing him get compared to the likes of Leonard. He wouldn’t have even beaten Benitez.

    But Nápoles is rather small for 154 pounds

    Only people that either A) don't know anything about boxing or B) are trying to sell something would seriously make that comparison

    A and B aren't mutually exclusive
