How would Canelo do at middleweight?

[Augustane]

If Chavez Jr. Stays at middleweight, GBP and TR can make one hell of a PPV.

[ColdBlooded]

I think he can beat them all. I can only see him losing to Martinez if Martinez is on his slick A game, and being very crafty.

I think he's stronger then the rest of them(and Martinez as well), and that will be enough to beat the other (slower) guys such as Quillen, Golovkin, etc.

I don't think Alvarez is stronger than Golovkin. He definitely doesn't hit has hard. I think the only two he would have absolutely no chance against are Martinez and Golovkin.

I wouldn't argue with you about Golovkin being the bigger puncher. Can you imagine what type of fight that would be? It would be awesome.

At 160 vs a real top 10 middleweight,
He looks like oscar vs hopkins

Canelo is a guy that is built for one division,, much like hatton, tyszu, hagler

I think going to middleweight, he would not be as nearly as successful

He may beat quillen, but ggg would massacre him

I would favor Alvarez over Quillin. Quillin has no workrate and can't deal with pressure. If Alvarez could pressure the flatfooted Quillin and weave his left hook counters, he could probably break Quillin down. After all, Rosado had Quillin in trouble.

Yeah, I feel the same,,

Well he's 23 and struggling to make that division.

[IronDanHamza]

I think he'd be a good addition.

Only sparring, but I read somewhere that Golovkin talks highly of Canelo after their spars.

[Tom Cruise]

I wouldn't pick him to win, but i think Alvarez has the perfect style to give GGG problems. If he showed he had the size, chin and power to match the middleweights then i could even pick him to win.
