    Hagler kills him. Not even fair. I think he'd go life and death with Sibson and Antuofermo. Probably loses to Minter, Mugabi. Loses to Calzaghe. Loses to Herol Graham.

    Knowing what we know now about McClellan, he might have a chance .

    No chance Vs Julian Jackson except some freak injury. He'd be in survival mode.

    Griffith.....just small enough for Canelo to have a chance.....Canelos best chances against marquee 160lbrs are the ones that came up from 147.

    Fullmer, Tiger, Giardello, Archer, Pender they're all beating him.

    Actually, Vito Antoufermo in a 15 rounder would make Canelo have a heart attack.

    Lol Marciano would have Suzie Q'd peak Canelo out of the ring, nevermind this sloth version that fought Crawford two nights ago

    Probably Alvarez. Just. Single shots. Like the shit he hit Saunders with..

    But Froch can get around the ring just as fast.

    Froch looks awkward. Loads of slick guys couldn't get out of the way. And he was on them in a shot. He'd cover the ring in 2,3 bounds. Loads of plenty smooth guys got penned into the corner by Froch and teed off on.

    It really wouldn't matter whether it's the Canelo of last night or the Canelo of 5 years ago. Patterson stops any version of Canelo.

    A lot of light heavys would kill Canelo. Yeah, DM would stop him.

    Thats why I was trying to limit it to guys 154-168.

    There's no way in Hell Canelo splatters Froch. Canelo's firepower is inferior to Kessler's.

    Missed that last part.

    Yes, obviously Canelo would KO the current Frochy.

    Canelo vs prime Vargas is not a guaranteed victory, imo. That would be close but Vargas has the work rate to out hustle him.

    Norris had a bad chin but the version who beat Brown in the rematch would definitely out box Canelo.
