How big would an (untrained) guy have to be to beat Canelo Alvarez in a street fight?

Is there any size (like 6"8 320lbs) where the height/weight difference would simply be too much for Canelo or is he gonna whoop pretty much anyone's ass?

If he's powerlifter strong, as in he can get Canelo in a bear hug and it's over. As far as being tall and muscular, it ain't gonna do sh!t. You'd be surprised how little the average Guy knows about fighting, too. Canelo buries many many bigger Guys in under 10 secs in a street fight. There are Guys who are just naturally too physically powerful for Him out there. One dumb mistake and he can punk them though. He can't do much against a UFC heavyweight in most cases.

assumptions

- its one on one
- lots of space to move around, like say outside
- canelo is alerted the fight is about to go down and he is sober

pretty much nobody unless like legit huge, like shaq level huge, the mountain level huge, those guys are so big that they can take some big shots, that level is where size matters.

but some bloatlord that is 250 pounds, that everyone thinks is "big", he is still getting sparked out


You can google shaq boxing mosley and de la hoya for some kind of charity thing. It was mosley i think that was punching him harder, he took them well, at that size you can absorb more. someone like an andre the giant ect.

some random "big" guy that isnt super human big though, they are getting sparked out. someone like say the rock that everyone acts is big but is really 6'2'' and naturally off gear is like 220 pounds, he is getting sparked out.

6’8 320 with a lot of fight experience checking in and while I’m not afraid to fight canelo, assuming it’s a street fight not boxing match, I wouldn’t want to do it very bad. The odds of him not hanging 4 on me before I got ahold of him isn’t very good.

the thread premise was "unskilled", which i could take as athletic but not fighting experience.

i am a highly skilled street fighter myself and it wouldnt even be close with me and canelo in the streets but thats not what OP is asking

Probably like twice his weight before you even entertain the idea.

Big guy needs serious chin and basic wrestling. I guess if they’re a power lifter Marius pudzinawski type they could bum rush him and take him down.

Unless they naturally have a chin though, an overhand right should ktfo anyone untrained, no matter their size.

I honestly think that Canelo could take the mountain in a street fight. One quick hook to the liver and Hafthor is down.

Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."

Bum rushing is a quick way to get ko'd ur literally gling towards the punch. Its going to do 2x as much damage when it lands

Dude was a jackass, he killed himself basically. Canelo doesnt take no chances
