Video analysis: Is 'Canelo' Alvarez overrated?

Golden Boy Promotion's 20-year-old phenom took care of Matthew Hatton on Saturday night, but is Saul Alvarez all he's been touted to be? "Canelo" landed 294 punches, 257 of them with power, and he couldn't take out a natural welterweight. Should the youngster be down at 147? Is he simply a product of the Golden Boy hype machine. Maybe we need to cut him some slack. After all, he is just 20.

Yahoo!'s lead boxing writer Kevin Iole chimes in on the topic. He says Canelo, now a world champion, must take on all comers.
