Fuck! @George Crowcroft my bad bro, I accidentally deleted the Canto video trying to merge threads. Please repost it in here.
You're very welcome George! And thanks for uploading this rare fight on YT! This fight shows that Canto wasn't just a purely defensive fighter. He shows great punch selection with some spitefulness.
That’s a very good question. Might have to ponder on this one. Harada with one punch KO to go along with his offense is a scary thought though.
I'd say Harada, especially if it's at bantamweight and it's like Pimental-level power. So fast, so smooth, so skilled, endless stamina with a retard workrate, hard to hit and tough to boot. Now he can KO you with one punch? Not to mention, Harada with power would probably beat Canto with power. Also, I saw someone on discord say that Tim Bradley with Pacquiao-esque power would be the best 140lber ever
Bradley's one of the most overrated fighters of the last 20 years. That's not to say he wasn't quality, but often he's put on faarrrrrr too high a pedestal. A guy who goes life and death with Provo and Kendall Holt does not deserve greatness talk. I consider Timmy more-less Hatton level, and you can make a strong argument that Ricky peaked higher. But they're about on the same level. Neither guy was a great, but both were quality. I've heard Bradley called Mosley level, and frankly, that's a huge fucking insult to Shane.
Yeah, I think 05 Hatton peaked a bit higher. It was a few years ago when multiple guys on Eastside said, "Bradley was just as good as Mosley." Such a statement leads me to believe they didn't watch ANY of prime Mosley. Young Shane would have given Bradley a terrible beating.
Agreed. Mosley was a different level, both in the skills department, and talent. I've seen people saying similar things about Crawford. Seems premature again, but Crawford seems much better than Bradley.
Mosley would be undefeated fighting Bud's comp. No Crawford fan can make a case for any of Bud's victims even having a chance with Shane, nevermind winning.
Canto was alright, but he didn't have that modern age, Andre Berto-like skill level, so I don't rate him. Guys didn't know how to box until Floyd Joy Mayweather showed them the way.
