Canelo is one of the coldest .

Charlo need to stay away from him & stop callin him out. https://t.co/MjpRvcckF9— 9one (@MoorishParadigm) December 16, 2018

After ripping in some brutal left hooks to the body, Canelo loves to feint with that shot then come up with a left hook or uppercut to the head. Lovely moves and very effective. #CaneloRocky https://t.co/30iCtcAlUm

‘Lost a bit of respect for Rocky Fielding tonight. Went down too easy and should have been boxing Canelo on the outside. That would have been my strategy.’ pic.twitter.com/Rcs4VEXgK6

In fairness, #Canelo has earned a "gimme fight" after fighting GGG twice. If you watched #CaneloRocky on DAZN for $10 you really can't complain, especially if you paid $80 for Khan, Chavez, etc.#boxing #CaneloFielding #MonteroOnBoxing
