      Because he's a cherry picker Larry.

        The worst part is that so many people jump to agree. I aint progressive, but we sure need to progress past this ignorance.

          I think it's understandable, even if harsh. A few things to factor in, whilst Canelo was many people's 1, Bivol was not in a top 10 anywhere, plenty of top 20s I'm sure, but not top 10. Bivol had not been seen anywhere his best form for a few years, varying reasons for that, but that's a factor. Then there is also the manner of the defeat. Canelo won only 2/3, or at most 4 rounds, depending on how you score the very close first 4 rounds, and never looked like winning. He also put in probably the least inspired performance of his career (since he became a name) Canelo can recover from this, but until he does, he deserves the drop in ranking. The Great Nash also believes that going Vegan did him no favours. Nash out.

            "Soft yet successful".

            That's well said. To me, that's the name of the game for most modern mainstream boxers. Part of it might be that they worry a loss could tarnish they're brand. But part of it is definitely that they're afraid to lose, and probably worried to really even be challenged.

            I actually understand the business side of that decision, not that I agree. But the other half is just mental weakness and lack of ambition.

              ''Experts'' should know better and rank fighters accordingly....without bias.

              Bias POVs are for us fans

                    I don't agree with this at all. 6 is too low
