    To be honest, If Canelo was European, he would be considered average guy

    Nobody would care watching his boring style at 154 and 160. After loses to Mayweather, Lara and GGG 2 x, he would be suggested to move to 175 and thrown to the wolves ( Bivol, Beterbiev) and forgotten after 2 losses.

    His reputation would be something like Derevyanchenko`s.

    Nobody would care finding some great way "collecting 168 belts" for him, fooling casuals how is he on "another level now."

    Derevyanchenko vs world (not including Regular or Interim) titlists: 0-3
    Derevyanchenko in world title fights: 0-3

    Canelo vs world titlists: 17-2-1
    Canelo in world title fights: 18-2-1

    I agree that GGG got robbed twice but even still, that's just a ****** comparison.

      No it is not. If Canelo was European, he wouldn`t be managed that carefully. And Saunders, Plant, Callum would be thrown to David Benavidez, not Canelo.

      It is what it is. Take you purple glasses away and imagine Canelo was Irish.

        David Benavidez is the king of imaginary fights you clowns keep thinking up, but he never actually fights anybody worth a damn. His best wins are against the guy who used to be David Lemieux and the guy who used to be Anthony Dirrell.

        If Benavidez didn't lose his title twice due to ******* and being fat he'd have already gotten one of these big fights and probably lost.

              Canelo runs through British fighters like a hot knife through warm butter.

              He'd have more drunken idiot fans than Ricky Hatton.

                If he was from the UK he'd be a huge star there.


                If he was from anywhere else in Europe? he wouldnt be as well known as he is now. Not because he isnt good but because he wouldnt have a large rabid fanbase behind him.

                  Another ****** post from NSBs village idiot. This idiot's only success prediction was Bivol fight which was not rocket science. She works as War Room's lesbian gf at weekends.

                    ive said this for the last 10 years or so about canelo, hes a good solid world level operator, nothing special whatsoever but depending on styles will have some good nights and bad nights. hes NEVER been a p4p type fighter, what p4p level fighter loses that badly to bivol and mayweather. i mean he was completely outclassed looked like a novice. just imagine showing them fights to your girlfriend or someone who hasnt heard of him and telling them that the slow ginger guy plodding round the ring is one of the best fighters in the sports, they would never take your opinion on sports seriously again
