He is no ATG. He aint no Chavez, Morales, or Marquez. Morales beat a prime Pacman while he was shot to sht for god sake. Morales reached Mt Rushmore with that performance. Look what he did to Maidana too. El Terrible is in another class than somebody like Canelo.
Canelo is in the class of Oscar and Barrera.Stuntman Mike

Imagine Ward with a ref actually enforcing the rules or boxing. It’s over for his one landed pillow style.
Toney got outboxed in his prime by complete journeymen several timesGrandpaBernard likes this.

He’s essentially just doing exhibitions except getting paid far better than if he was retired. More power to him.
Opinions are opinions. He’s ****** rich. That proves how great he is, not our opinions.Stuntman Mike likes this.

I don’t think Canelo is an atg. ATGs take on all challenges, no ducking. And you can’t deny that he has done a lot of cherry-picking throughout his career. Also, many of his high profile wins were against boxers that were past their primes/on their way out.
Boxing has been around for a long time so it’s difficult for me to consider him, or any other modern boxer, an atg.

You know who is great, Duran, at 38yo he was fighting the 160 pounds Champion 10 years his junior and won, and he had 91 fights under his belt at the time, he is great. Floyd is great, he schooled canelo at 36 while canelo was 13 years younger and had 44 fights under him, you know another great, SRL with half of ginger's fights he fought Hagler, Duran in his prime twice, Hearns in his prime twice, Kalule and Wolfred Benitez, all in their prime. GTFOH with that inflated resume full of old people and domestic-level fighters.
