Before Monroe............... I seen his flaw's before/during The Geale fight same as I seen the flaw's in Tyson before Buster capitalised on it afew year's later every fighter's got flaw's the logical choice to really TEST GGG is Canelo but he isn't ready

Cards on the table - Canelo comes through Smith on Saturday then has one middleweight fight, say against Billy Joe, and wins to setup the super fight. Does he have any chance of winning?

Most WORLD class fighter's have a chance against another WORLD class fighter as long as they are not too far apart in weight wich Canelo has never been too far apart in weight for him and GGG to meet.......... It would be one of the BIGGEST if not the BIGGEST fight out there right now in any weight class and YES of course Canelo has got a chance but my money will be on GGG

I read Leonard's bio a while back. He said Duran was one of the key events for him believing he could beat hagler. Duran told him, after he fought Hagler, "if you box him, you beat him". Not to say the Mugabi fight wasn't influential although Hagler had been trying to fight Leonard for years. Leonard clearly admits that he was a diva and he was battling AOD issues for years thus his retirement. This does not take away from his defeat of hagler, whom he did defeat in one of my favourite all time fights.

I guess what I'm trying to say......the person who survives getting knocked out by GGG, that will be the big deal. A fight I really don't want to see and the person who could potential survive GGG is Erislandy Lara. And when i say survive I mean survive not win. I dont want to see this fight because not only are they in separate weight divisions, you are pitting one of the most boring boxers in with one of the most exciting and ruining the momentum that is GGG, the momentum he deserves and you are still chasing that Canelo dream. GGG will be bigger than Canelo, give him time, he doesnt need fight his ex-opponents.
