The thing is that he is canelo's best win, he was his toughest opponent that he didn't lose to, and old GGG was basically even with a prime canelo Alvarez so for canelo to be good than GGG has to be too. You can't separate their legacies no matter how hard you try but the thing is most canelo fans are just ex GGG fans who couldnt stand to see someone who looks like Bud Crawford atop the p4p list.

But I know most canelo fans say that the media is bull****, fine, let's look at the judges scorecards in that fight. The judges who are notoriously biased against Canelo. I do agree that the media gets **** wrong a lot.
Weisfeld 7-5 Canelo (same guy who scored the Bivol fight 7-5)
Moretti 7-5 Canelo (same guy who scored the Bivol fight 7-5)(
Glenn Feldman 6-6.
This means 2 things, if the judges are correct then it was a very close fight with G only needing 1 round on 1 judge's cards to retain his belts. Compare that to the Cotto scorecards who all had Canelo way ahead, it's obvious that version of GGG did better than that version Cotto. Neither were close to their prime.

I doubt it since everyone agrees Cotto won easily, but the majority of people scored both fights for GGG.

Maybe GGG has his number. But Cotto is a far better fighter. 4 division champ, 1x lineal. GGG was never "the man" at any division, and his best wins don't compare to Cotto's best wins. Even though the rematch was close, I felt Canelo won fair and square. Cotto wasn't prime, but I'd still rank it higher. Just my opinion.
But it's like let's say Bivol beats Beterbiev in a close decision, it's like saying who is a better win, canelo or beterbiev, well obviously canelo has the better resume but Beteibev harder to beat at 175.

Cotto may very well be a greater fighter than GGG, but Gayweather fought him when he had been beaten twice.
Beating 2018 undefeated GGG >>>>>>>>>> beating 2012 two loss Cotto.
