If Canelo wins today, is he the best mexican fighter of all time?

Why do clueless casuals creep out of the woodwork after every big fight? He’s not even a top five Mexican fighter all-time.

For me the hierarchy of Mexican boxing history is something like this Teir 1 - Julio Cesar Chavez Salvador Sanchez Ruben Olivares Teir 2 - Miguel Canto Ricardo Lopez Juan Manuel Marquez Marco Antonio Barrera Carlos Zarate Teir 3 - Erik Morales Humberto Gonzalez Vincente Salvadir Pipino Cuevas Rafael Harrera Teir 4 - Lupe Pintor Antonio Margarito Daniel Zaragoza Kid Azteca Jorge Arce Rafael Marquez Rodolfo Casanova Baby Arizmendi Efren Torres Jose Luis Castillo Isreal Vasquez Juan Zurita Jose Luis Ramirez Chucho Castillo Gilberto Roman For me Canelo is at the second tier right now and he still has work to do if he wants to be up there with Chavez and company I agree with everyone on your list except margirito other than beating a prime cotto what else did he do?

Nope. Far from it.

I don't even think he's top 5 mexican in the last 20 years TBH

If you are writing this thread, then he already is the greatest mexican of all time, in your bedroom, in your mind and in your tissue you are holding in your right hand with your left hand on your shaft... So TS is a southpaw eh?

Canelo is easily a top 20 all time Mexican fighter probably around 15th best ever for that country.

The drugs in Mexico and the US look really scary. The strength of British drugs is crazy, but they look like you wouldn't want to smoke nor snort them. Sorry, but i don't want to dribble that much. Canelo has only 3 good wins over Trout, Jacobs and Kovalev. And the problems with those 3 are clearly obvious to anyone who knows boxing. FOH!!!

Maybe top 10 right now but by the end of his career he will be top 5.

How well does Canelo take body shots? How's his gas tank when under pressure?

??? Morlaes, De La Hoya, Barrera and Chavez are all better at the moment, you can even make a argument that Marquez win over Pacquaio is better than everything Canelo has done, bro I love Canelo but he doesn't choose to fight the most dangerous opposition, he fought Golovkin after arguably losing to Jacobs, he fought Kovalev 9 weeks after he went life and death with Anthony Yarde, he's fighting Callum Smith after John Ryder laid the blueprint on how to beat him, it's not like when he jumps weight classes he's fighting killers, he didn't fight Beterbiv instead of Kovalev, he didn't fight Golovkin after beating Cotto, he fought Khan, Liam Smith, and Chavez jr., he could have fought David Benavideis clearly a better fighter than Callum

He needs to fight David Benavidez.

morales has wins over prime barrera and pac barrera has wins over prime morales and hamed canelo has wins over past prime ggg and kovalev, but he did beat lara although lara is not on the level of any of the previous guys i mentioned. are we putting callum smith on the pac, barrea, morales level now too? or austin trout? what am i missing

who are all these great prime figthers he is beating? im confused
