    He’ll certainly be judged harshly for avoiding a fight with Benavidez, if that ends up being the case, but If Canelo retires this year, he won’t be judged at all for not fighting the others you mention. Why would history judge him negatively for not fighting Crawford who is three weight classes below him? Why would he be judged negatively for not fighting Beterbiev or for not rematching Bivol who are both much bigger than he is? The man simply ran into his size limit at 168 after climbing 4 divisions. Finally, unless Mungia and Berlanga (especially Berlanga) do a hell of a lot more before Canelo retires, why would he be judged negatively for not fighting them? Who were they ever?
    I agree with you if he retires and stays retired. But if he continues to fight for a few more years without fighting any of those opponents it will reflect poorly upon his legacy.

      The fans will decide that. I think that it is definitely a black mark on Canelos legacy.

        But you're a clear case of what i mean when i say Canelo's fans have no shame. Look at you using fallacies for why Canelo is ducking the fight. The figth isn't happening because Benavidez lost his title. It isn't happening because Canelo is a scared little fraud. Now go and have a cry in the corner and delude yourself that you're not an absolute clown for this embarrassing nonsense.
        You are a clown, I said Canelo should get stripped for not fighting him you dumb flying ******, David already fought Plant and Andrade to get the canelo fight, dumbass clowns like you are comical, least I don't ride UK fighters ****s like I do it to Mexican fighters I'm the damn truth not a dumb fangimp like you

          Sugar Ray Leonard never ducked Aaron Pryor , that's a myth.

            Define these advantages, so that we are arguing the same points. Otherwise we will go round and round with you endlessly strawmanning the argument and we’ll soon be arguing about something entirely disconnected from the topic at hand (Canelo ducking, manipulating the Benavidez fight).

              Say what????

              Where's that thread too where you supposedly own me? Don't tell me, you can't find it? Of course you can't. It doesn't exist, that's why.

                Well, list the opponents that you think are clean. If they're not, i'll happily point it out.

                Advanatges are facing shot, smaller, inactive, drained, waiting them out for bad performances or age, or not giving them enough time to train. I want wins that don't have robberies either.

                Yes, this thread is about him ducking Canelo. But the point is he's looking for advantages before he'll face him. Just like he's done his whole career.

                  It was a thread where you bashed Eduardo Nuņez saying that he was gonna get destroyed and you said racist shieet so that's the thread and you can't deny it

                    Apart from size all of those other advantages you list are subjective. The same claims could be made about virtually any fighter. I think it’s a reasonable to cite instances where Canelo manipulated a catchweight or imposed a rehydration clause, or said his opponent had to wear two left shoes. Outside of stuff like that all the rest is b******t whining.

                      Yes, for sure.
