    Thoughts on this one?

    I think Norris whips him good and wins a clear UD. And if Canelo's chin isn't as good as some believe, he may get stopped late.

    Norris by clear UD. He'll beat Canelo to the punch consistently with his quick hands, and has a huge edge in footspeed. The movement would have Alvarez all sorts of problems. Norris's mix of speed and power would probably make Canelo hesitant.

    Canelo still might score a KD or rock Norris, because, well, it's Norris. But Norris would recover and outbox Canelo by a pretty wide margin.

    Canelo by KO. You guys underestimate how good this guy is. Only the Greek God known as Tax Evadius can school him. Norris was no Tax Evadius.

    Actually, I pick Norris by decision. Norris was an excellent fighter and I'd expect him to outbox Canelo and avoid being KO'd
