Whoever was talking about him being "huge", "out of shape" was wrong.

He's as natural a Middleweight as I've ever seen. This comes as no surprise.

I think he was 163 last time. Might have cut a bit for it to try and entice Canelo.

I think he's going to look a good bit bigger than cinnamon.

I like Alvarez but I think that GGG is kind of superhuman.

He's human, he's just a really good fighter. A better fighter than Canelo in my view from what I've seen. September 16th will tell us for sure.

For a 6ft, or ever less actually, guy, this is a very natural weight right?

How is this superhuman?

I'm glad you posted that, I actually thought he was superhuman for a second.

Am I correct to assume the reason why Canelo isn't participating in the 30-day and 7-day weigh-ins is because they're part of the WBC's procedure for championship fights and Alvarez is not challenging for that title? :confused:
