    Canelo Isn't Top 2 At 168 Now

    Benavidez and Morrell both beat him. He peaked. He's on the decline big time. He's been a pro since 15 or 16 and fought a ton of killers. Had a HOF run. But he's on the down side. All the wars, the money, the golf career aspirations. But let's face it. He's too small at 168 for Benavidez and Morrell. They both beat him decisively and possibly stop him. It is a travesty that he is talking about Bivol at 175 when he's had those two as mandatories for a year and a half plus. Canelo is #3 at 168 now and I don't want to see Benavidez vs Morrell until Canelo fights one of them. If he doesn't want to, that's fair, vacate the WBC and WBA. PERIOD.

    and when I say Canelo is #3 I mean in terms of ranking who is the best right now in the division. He's undisputed and ranked #1 in terms of being the champ and his resume. But I think both David's beat him.

      Look at my join date. I have been praising Canelo since he fought JM Cotto. Doesn't mean I can't recognize he's on the down side and those 2 young savages do things to him in that ring. You on the other hand probably started watching boxing when Floyd fought Conor.

        Criticism does not equate to hate. You'll learn that as you get older.

          Personally I think Benavidez is tailor made for Canelo.

            You may eventually be proven right but without a victory over Canelo, we can’t just say they beat him. Until that happens, Canelo is still #1 at 168.

              I like it as well, but if David can handle Canelos power he is toast, style wise its a shoot out I would want Canelo to take over Bivol.

                Stop smoking that weed, Plant made Benavidez look like an amateur for six rounds, and didn’t get KO’d. All Canelo needs is seven rounds.

                Morrell? LMAO. Nine fight Morrell? Why is he #2? Because he KOd some no name Brazilian dude that nobody is able to name without having to google him?

                    Isn't top 2? He is undisputed at 168 and hasn't lost a fight there
