    I don`t really care about canelo becoming undisputed at 168

    Callum Smith, Saunders, and Plant are not really special fighters.

    Crawford unified 140. Anybody cares?

    Taylor unified 140. Anybody cares?

    discrediting Josh Taylor? Lol. Ok.

    Comparing Crawford beating Indongo to Smith, BJS and Plant is even more comical.

    Canelo would’ve Unified all the belts one by one in less than 12 months… nobody is doing that.

      i think its a good achievement, u need to be pretty good to do it in the ring & then have all the promotion stuff lined up as well, which is just as hard at times, all classes should have a clear road to undisputed built in, no excuses that way

        Just two years ago Canelo doubters said he wouldn’t face Smith and which is why he choose Fielding. When he fought Kovalev or Jacobs they said Canelo was avoiding Smith, Benavidez or that BJS was Lara 2.0 because “southpaws doe.” Now all of sudden it’s a “weak division.”

        Technically speaking, the #1 P4P guy in whichever division is the hard division since you gotta see him. Canelo is an excellent fighter. Why do you think Davis wears Canelo’s gloves mayne

          I agree 100%. Nobody gives a crap about the belts. Undisputed is more of a liability these days than something to brag about. Paying 12 percent of your purse to corrupt orgs is also outrageous. Except for Bud and Canelo, I see the rest as C level, not champs.

            So this is your justification why Davis shouldn’t unify with other Champs. Ok. Champs shouldn’t fight Champs because of purse percentages going to orgs. Ok…

              Didn't OP say that Canelo has to see BJS to prove he's legit?

                Yep.. because belts are garbage and sold to the highest bidder. Hopefully he drops the ones he currently holds. Also 140 and 168 historically and now, with some exceptions, are the weakest divisions in boxing, full of Euros. They are the hideout divisions for weak second rate fighters.

                  i think you have to be a fan of the fighter to appreciate what the fighter is doing. Like sports, not everyone is a fan of every single team. There are fighters I'm a fan of, and other fighters that are good, champions, but i'm not a fan of theirs. I am a fan of Canelo and enjoy his fights, when he wins it feels like I win. Definitely looking forward to undisputed.

                    Taylor being undisputed got him all the way up to the top 5 in some P4P lists.

                    Is 168 a great division? No, but still a nice accomplishment nonetheless.
