I seriously think canelo is on a white crusade.

I'm almost 100% certain canelo feels like he can not lose to light skinned fighters. The whiter the skin the easier they are for him. I wouldn't be surprised to see canelo fight uysk one day.

I'm not saying he can't beat a benavidez or charlo, I just think canelo feels they are tougher fights. Every white guy he's fought has been easy for him. He's so confident, that he's jumping up weight classes and even fighting the killers at 175. Beterbiev is next.

charlo is not even at his weight class & didnt he actually turn down a chance at nelo at one point? & benavidez has weight and drug issues and didnt he lose his belt too, what is canelo supposed to do with these guys, hold their hands and lead them to the ring, id like to see nelo fight a variety of styles and a few latinos and AA but where are they

[Rip Chudd]

But Canelo is whiter than those guys

[Dakuwaqa]

Ooooookaaaay then!

People said the same thing about FMW Jr and Latino lunch box. Put this in context. Lara was the #1 contender and pretty much mando for the WBC and WBA 154 and FMW convinced fools that Maidana for 2 PPVs and 70 million was a greater challenge. Imagine Lara vs Madiana in an eliminator. Do you think he busted up like Angulo?

Bob Arum once said, boxing fans are like rocks, you can keep them in any which way.

Beterbiev & Bivol are far bigger men than Benividas or Charla. So…… if it was so easy to whip both lite heavyweights. Why hasn’t Charla or Benavides stepped up??
As far as your white guy theory. He’s just was going after belts that happens to be owned by white Europeans. U see the bigger you get. The more white guys soooo…….

[lizard_man]

I'm not saying he's purposely avoiding black and Latino fighters. What I'm saying is that subconsciously he feels like he can't lose to white fighters so he takes these fights against them without a fear in the world.

[famicommander]

You realize that both Bivol and Golovkin are half-Korean and Canelo is white himself, right? He's got bright red hair, bro.

I dont think it has anything to do with skin color and more to do with the fact that all the guys he has recently faced dont have power.

Are you saying light skinned fighters have no power?
