    yeah he is not all that charismatic. sure there is a language barrier but you seen pacquaio have tons of charisma and guys like Usyk who isnt that famous has tons of charisma.

      In a nutshell it is called marketing. Sell a piece of poo to the people who don't know what they are buying.

          1 or 2 are coincidences not excuses - but having over 10 situations where circumstances were in your favour/protected from losses/fighting old men is not coincidental. All these things happened because Canelo was insecure in his abilities to win fights or performed to a poor standard and needed help... You must be a colossal diqhead if you can't see that! Then again, you're Canelo fan (still trying to defend his ducking of Benavidez) so I wouldn't expect any less...

            Bivol/Beterbiev ducked each other for 6 years, when morons around here have heroes that didn't take so long to make a fight, they have nothing to cry about.

              Get back to me when Benavidez isn't crying or when he actually fights a live opponent.


              Or when he isn't on coke.

                He is one of if not the greatest p4p fighter since Money.

                If you don't agree, save it, we all already know it's because you got a tiny pee-pee.
                Lol, his marketing team have clearly pulled the wool over your eyes I see, Canelo's career best performance (GGG rematch) was a fight most agreed he lost - that says it all. Other than that it was all catchweights, weight bullying, advantageous clauses, old men and domestic level bums.

                  Definitely the looks. I know white women that are fond of him just because they believe he's truly Irish, lol.

                    it does seem that everyone who watchs boxing either hates him or falls in love with him. for me he never had the type of fights that made me want to watch him again and again.....
                    There were no stand outs to me, is a decent fighter sure, but then you get into the sweepstakes everytime he is making "a decision" on who he is going to fight like he is the most important fighter in boxing, then he fights guys who are not able to give the man a real challenge and the way he is written about and .....let those that follow him follow him he is not the driver of boxing.

                      Because of his deep resume but more importantly, he doesn’t look like Munguia.
