Donald Curry vs. Saul Alvarez @ 154

Curry re-hydrates to 160ish while Alvarez pushes 170. Is the cobra too much for Canelo?

 

As long as it's the pre-Honeyghan version, then yes. He'd be far too much for Canelo.

 

Is there any evidence that Curry was ever effective, rehydrated or otherwise, at 160 pounds?

Curry was, at his peak, an awesome fighter with fantastic skills, but the man we think of when we think of that fighter weighed 147 pounds and probably not much more than that hours after a same-day weigh-in

 

Well I wasn't gonna put in the Michael Nunn version

 

Cdogg has become a weight fanatic .

Curry could have handled 154 just fine, and he was plain and simple a far better fighter than Canelo and would have whupped him.

 

Ok, Curry could have weighed 146 and Canelo 165 and Curry beats him down::

 

Curry was really more a junior middle anyway. He was a big ass welterweight who killed himself to get 147, hence the Honeyghan loss.

Curry had about 3 solid inches of height on Ging too, let's not forget.

 

He hit way harder than Floyd, too
