If Tank doesn't get credit for LSC, why does Bivol get credit for Canelo?

[Chollo Vista]

LSC went up 9 pounds and was actually taller than Tank. Tank also started his career at 126 pounds.

Canelo went up 7 pounds and was a career JMW/MW. He was also 5-6 inches shorter.

The people of this forum labeled Bivol FOTY for a win over a smaller person.

Why?

Canelo is a first ballot HOFer
