- The fighting pride of Laredo, TX, Canizales was born November 25, 1965 and turned pro in his hometown on August 25, 1984.
In 1986 he was unsuccessful in an NABF flyweight title bout with Olympian Paul Gonzales (L 12). However, Canizales rebounded to win the title from Armando Velasco (KO 4) in 1987 and in 1988 added the USBA super flyweight title with a 2nd round TKO over Olympian Louis Curtis.
The slick-boxing Canizales moved up in weight and on July 9, 1988 he won the IBF bantamweight championship with a 15th round TKO over Kelvin Seabrooks. Over the next six years, Canizales would successfully defend his title a division record 16 consecutive times, including wins over Seabrooks, Gonzales, Clarence (Bones) Adams, and 1992 Olympian Sergio Reyes.
After struggling to make the bantamweight limit (118 lbs), Canizales abdicated the belt in 1994 to campaign as a super bantamweight. He challenged WBA champion Wilfredo Vazquez in January 1995, dropping a 12-round split decision. Canizales, whose brother Gaby was the WBA / WBO bantamweight champion, continued boxing until 1999 when he retired following a 10-round split decision loss to Frank Toledo.
Canizales, who was an aggressive boxer / puncher, posted a pro record of 50-5-1 (37 KOs). In May 2003 he graduated from Texas A&M International University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology.
I watched him for the first time last year in 2018 and I fell in love with his fighting style the incredible foot work he had to create angles truly world class 🥊
ALC ALC Me too, I only started to look back over his career fights the last few years and I was amazed to see such technical ability from a fighter from way back in the day. He really was ahead of his time with the style he fought with in the ring.
@@thankyouplease9870 Orlando Canizales for me he was one of the two king's of the angles, first was Salvador Sanchez A.K.A The Three Lungs

Enserio que muy pocos boxeadores han mostrado técnica tan fina para pelear canizales, salvador sanchez y el mantequilla eran técnicas superiores
There is so much boxing today I stopped going on the forums. So many Afro Latino fighters and now we, we come from great ancestors. That Incas, the Mayans, the Aztecs. The Songhai, the Egyptians before , Arab invasion but ethnicity and culture has nothing to do with boxing. We all lost our true cultures from European invasion. Many people who speak their8 Spanish. Spanish people were White people. We all lost our original languages like Nican Llaca many Mexicans and there are Afro Mexicans. When I started hearing all that trash I stopped watching. It breaks my heart man. Where did it all come from?
@@GeeLove si hay mucho boxeo hoy pero es como si fuera en retroceso en lugar de avanzar y tener talentosa como lo hubo antes boxeadores con mucho corazón y resistencia, antes se les exigía mucho mas al peleador no como hoy que lo vencen antes de subir al ring con contratos y clausulas que solo le facilitan a otro peleadores regalando el 50% del triunfo, los grandes que están en un salón de la fama escribieron su legado con letras de oro al hacer lo que pocos o nadie a hecho, Una Cultura, Raza o País de procedencia de un boxeador no define su grandeza, muchos afroamericanos han logrado cosas que nunca otros peleadores hicieron o han hecho un ejemplo el mejor libra por libra de todos los tiempos Sugar Ray Robinson, no solo la segregacion y mezclas de razas en el continente americano han logrado algo, un ejemplo y opinión personal el mejor boxeador africano Azumah Nelson, de filipinas el mejor libra por libra de este siglo Manny Pacquiao esa manera de ir adelante y tirar golpe tras golpe usando el juego de piernas y contra golpeo lo hizo ganar y lograr lo que ganó lo que si no se por que o a que se deba que la región donde eres entrenado desde un principió define mucho al boxeador sin importar que raza sea, a que me refiero? muchos boxeadores ingleses tienen una característica que trabaja en contra de ellos y es que tienen mandíbula de cristal y te puedo nombrar varios Hatton, Nassem Hamet, Joshua pero solo a un boxeador proveniente de esa región eh visto que aguantó castigo su mandíbula pero su pómulo no me refiero a Joe Saunders, Una Raza o nacionalidad No define al boxeador a el lo define sus habilidades, pasión por lo que hace y el hambre de triunfo cosa que muchos pierden al tener su primer cinturón puede que tenga razón puede que no al final es mi opinión personal
