You missed the point, which is WHY their legacies are secure. Many here argue that their legacies depended on them fighting and not ducking. Actually taking the fight and winning would go a long way to secure his legacy, but when you finish out an otherwise HOF career with so many soft touches that you could open a mattress factory, it's got to taint it at least some. And when achieving undisputed is one of the biggest achievements in your career, but you ducked the #1 and #2 contenders for the entirety of your reign, it puts big asterisks on your victory.

A siders like canelo are only a siders because they have the fans who buy their ppv events, so he can be all smug and im a king etc etc but he has disrespected his fans & he takes them for granted as well all the while they are on here and other places defending him like hes their son, its a strange sport in that way & they almost buy any ppv hes in as well, in the end they are actually great fans but they fuel his crap at times because he feels he can get away with anything & he mostly if not all the time canComment

He should take note of how Floyd’s career has aged. Floyd thought people would still be demanding he fight pro fights at this point of his life and it’s not the case. Stars built on bandwagon riders come to realize it later on. The ones who will still talk about you twenty years later are the real fight fans and them same real fight fans don’t hold back tearing em downComment

Canelo is a great fighter. He's elusive and hard to hit and when u do land, you won't hurt him anyhow. He also punches very hard and knows exactly what he's doing. You can't make mistakes against him or it could be lights out.
Having said all that, he's a cherry picker, and I don't support cherry pickers. So I never buy his pay per views. I get it, he's robbing the game like Mayweather did, but he's scared of David. Or scared of losing to him. And how is he the idol of boxing when Bivol straight kicked his ass and he never pursued a rematch or even mentioned his name anymore? Where's the Mexican pride?Comment

CrimsonFalcon I didn’t miss the point rather you missed mine .I’m pointing out that even the most highly regarded boxers of all time have weak spots in their resumes.And they’re judged on the totality of their careers as will be Canelo.Now apparently you mean Benavidez as the #1 contender but who is #2 ? Morrell ? If you are claiming Canelo avoided Morrell then I can’t take you seriously.Comment

Canelo is looking to fight Beterbiev if he beats bivol, he has the style to win that fight (you heard it here)Comment
And Berlanga barely gets mentioned: "Alvarez fights Edgar Berlanga on September 14." Even the article writer doesn't GAF about that fight.
