    Remember, Canelo looks ordinary on elite level

    very controversial win against Lara
    two very controversial fights with GGG
    a loss to Mayweather

    I won`t be surprised at all if/when Bivol wins, even with a KO. Bivol is a legit champ at 175, he is much stronger than anybody Canelo has ever fought so far and well skilled also.

    Callum, Plant and Saunders are not on that level.

    Certainly lost to GGG, especially the first fight he was completely out classed. Very close against Lara who wasn't even elite tbh, same goes for Trout. Lets not forget Canelo was getting picked apart by BJS early as well.

    But I heard the Bivol match up would be at 172? Either way Bivol is not that good and completely untested.

      What makes Lara not elite?
      Also BJS got his face caved in. Read that again.

        So when it’s official let’s do a ban bet OP. I got Canelo to win straight up. Loser deletes their account.
        You in?

            And if Canelo dominates him, ya'll will just down grade Bivol and make more excuses not to give Canelo any credit.

              Lara's skills were elite as fak. Prime Lara could beat any 154 lbs fighters in history. Prime Lara escaped from baby Canelo all night long. Lara fight is actually an example of how great fighter is Canelo.

                I'm going to play a little devil's advocate here. If we're saying Canelo is only ordinary on elite level, yet he went life and death with GGG in very close fights, what does that say for GGG on an elite level? GGG's best wins would be Jacobs, Lemieux, Geale, Murray, D-Chenko. Not exactly elite level themselves. Seems to be a wash.

                  GGG doesn`t claim he is top p4p guy in last years.

                  My point exactly. canelo and GGG are the same level.

                    Bivol murders everybody on Canelo`s resume, including GGG.
