Canelo's KOs are gonna come from body shots going forward, on accumulation shyt. He put's way more into his body shots. Also mixes up doubling the left hook upstairs/down n vice versa. I mean Canelo's game is really his left hook and jab. Both of which he has ++ variations of to the body, so I think he'll be okay power wise.
floyd said canelo's power is ridiculous. said he was feeling his shots for a while after their fight. he doesn't have one punch KO power but his shots will take the juice out of you. which is why you always see guys who take some big shots from him then get on their bike. and those guys who do have the courage to trade shots don't make it to the final bell. I never looked at canelo as a puncher though. He's a boxer with a good punch. he sets up everything with his fundamentals, but if he lands clean he can hurt anybody. that's what makes him an exciting fighter to watch. and truthfully I think he's gonna be even stronger at 160. middleweight will be when he reaches his physical prime.

Well, well, well.......what do we have here?:jbhmm:



PACQUIAO INSISTS HE CAN STILL MAKE 135; TALKS JESSIE VARGAS CLASH AND KNOCKOUT DRY SPELL || FIGHTHYPE.COM



Manny, you haven't won by knockout since 2009, does that matter to you?

MANNY PACQUIAO: Remember my minimum weight is – I can still make 135. I can still make 135 and my natural weight is 140. When I move up into the higher weight divisions it changes my preparation – I eat a lot to make 147. Where I may gain a pound of two between the weigh-in and the fight, my opponent may be a lot heavier. I am not saying that I cannot do that, but what I am trying to do in every fight I try to do my best. It just so happens that my opponent is tough and bigger than me. But I am still trying to do my best to get a knockout in the fight. I am not saying what I am predicting for this fight but if the knockout comes, it will come – it is the bonus for all of your sacrifices in training.

MANNY PACQUIAO: My opponent is bigger than me but that doesn't matter – I am not disappointing the fans that I have and I did my best. I work hard in the fight and in training and I have proven that to the fans.

BOB ARUM: There is another factor. The fighters that Manny is fighting, because he is so powerful and he throws so many punches and he throws them in bunches and he hurts guys –is that they tend to fight in defense. Now any fighter or trainer will tell you that if that happens it is very difficult to knock somebody out – very difficult. I think with Jessie Vargas, who is an offensive fighter who is going to go after Manny, whose goal is to knock Manny out – I think you will see, one way or another, a knockout in this fight. And it's a lot because Jessie will be fearless and some people say reckless, will be going after Manny to try and knock Manny out. And when that happens it is easier for the other to knock that guy out – you know that.




But, when Terence Crawford called him out, and asked to make it at 140, @Black_Jesus claimed that Pacquiao couldn't make 140....even though I reminded him that Pacquiao had said he still could. Now, Pacquiao says he can STILL make 135???:sas1:



So why couldn't we get Pacquiao vs Crawford again Black_Jesus? Crawford wanted it, Arum wanted it, HBO wanted it, fans wanted it :sas2:
