Canelo is the ONLY fighter today that actually challenges himself with other great fighters. He’s done it since his early years. Examples are Bivol, Kovalev, GGG, Jacobs, all the belted 168 pounders, Cotto, Trout, Lara & Mayweather.
Charro’s, Tank, Haney, Ennis & Garcia all talk more than they fight REAL THREATS.
Props to Canelo, Loma & Teo For taking risks.Comment

What makes him great? He dropped the belt to run from G, then when the fight was on he took Clenbuterol. Lost both times, been 90% picking cherries ever since. Pays the judges off, should have 7 losses. Explain to me how you think this is great again?Comment

Do you really think he actually beats Benavidez, Charlo, Andrade, especially after last night?
I think Bivol exposed once again that if you're defensively competent, Canelo's punches are very easy to avoid because he swings for the home run on every shot. His ability to mix up the speed of his punches is very poor, almost embarrassingly poor for a p4p fighter. Second, fighters who can constantly pump a jab in canelo's face will always frustrate canelo because he can't lull you to sleep with his slow pace. And finally, Bivol proved again that when you know how to use your feet, canelo gasses very quickly from swinging and missing all the time and drowns when he gets to deep waters.
JMO but I don't see how Canelo beats Andrade and Charlo. Maybe Benavidez but I do believe Andrade and Charlo's jabs, defense, activity and footwork will be enough to take a decision from Canelo.
yes, he will land on those guys, benavidez blocks punches with his face, andrande and charlo arent near the skill of bivol who completely shut everything down.Comment

What defines a great fighter is their ability to bounce back from a loss. To continue to march forward despite all the hate and obstacles thrown their way. This is why Pacquiao is such a great inspiration to everyone worldwide. After almost every loss he has bounced back stronger. And I know Canelo can do the same. So instead of hating on Canelo, we should support him. We support you Canelo!!!! The entire world does! This isn't the end it's just an opportunity at a new beginning! A new fresh start to reinvent yourself!

Again, Alvarez`s best moments are GGG fights at 160.
He didn`t like that taste, because these fights were very controversial, so he decided to move up thinking he would fool you guys how he beats everybody around, even Usyk, lol.
His run over 168 is not really great, because Callum , Saunders and Plant are not really like Lara, GGG, Mayweather.Comment
