    Should Canelo KO 20 bums to equal GGG? Or does GGG need to catch up with Canelo, by knocking out more than one champ in Lemieux to equal his KO record?
    come to think of it, even Lemieux was kinda bummish.

    Canelo stopped more world champions because he moved around in weight and fought for those belts when he moved up. GGG stayed in the same division since becoming a pro, and was fighting mandatories. He had most of the belts for many years, so technically he was the only world champion in his division during these times

    Can't fight world champions when you're the only world champion in your own weight class lol it's more of a logistic thing

    Canelo is the better fighter, but not a better puncher. It wasn't that long ago where he won a decision against a blown up 147 pounder in Cotto

        Knocking out bums makes "the eye test" look better.

          Because we see it from a scientific approach as to which one without the PED's was a better KO artist. Clenelo Pharmacy man is great with the PED's but without them, we don't really know.
