    but now that we’ve seen more of Canelo career, objectively speaking who’s actually the better fighter between them?
    Better boxer? Floyd all the way. Better fighter? I lean toward Canelo due to his power.

      I think Floyd does edge Golovkin, the head-movement would give GGG fits.

      Canelo vs Maidana? Maidana's wild attacks throw Canelo off for a few rounds. Then he gasses and Canelo dominates the rest of the fight.

        Floyd. Canelo struggles with top competition. Canelo in his prime lost to GGG and Lara.

          Ok so how many all time greats did both beat in their prime.

          Was Canelo a prime, all-time great when Floyd beat him.

          I'm waiting.

            He was a unified young champ..Floyd was past prime at 36.

            canelo is a damn good fighter..but all you are doing is trying to discredit a man with a far better resume who beat him while not giving me one reason canelo is better which is the topic on the thread

              Fraud doesn't have a "far better resume" than Canelo. Not even close.

                  Dude you going all around the mulberry bush.

                  Was Canelo, in his prime, when Floyd beat him? Yes or No.

                  If you felt without conviction that Canelo was at his absolute prime when Floyd beat him you would have said yes 2 days ago.

                  Just admit Floyd hasn't beaten an all time great fighter in their prime, and Canelo wasn't in his prime when he beat him.

                      There is no arguing this....
