    Mayweather-Canelo is far too low, that was a bonafide super fight. Canelo-Bivol is way too high too, that never really felt like a mega fight despite the significant upset win.

    I’d go:

    1. Canelo-GGG 1
    2. Mayweather-Canelo
    3. Canelo-GGG 2
    4. Canelo-Cotto
    5. Canelo-Kovalev
    6. Canelo-Khan
    7. Canelo-Chavez Jr
    8. Canelo-Plant
    9. Canelo-Jacobs
    10. Canelo-Bivol.

      I agree with most of the rankings here, but would switch Plant for N. 3, Cotto for N.6 and Khan for N. 8.

            Its absolutely hilarious to me that the fight listed as number 1 is a fight where Canelo was very publicly caught using PEDs in the lead up to and its also a fight viewed as controversial where an overwhelming majority of press row viewers and fans had GGG winning lol. Says all you need to now about Canelo and his career...

              That’s fair enough mate, it’s obviously subjective.

                Agreed. I know this sounds su****ious, but to me Boxrec fan scores are pretty accurate (when thereŽs enough scorers) and there GGG took 1 and 2 (I got both 115-113 G), Canelo winning the trilogy vs 40 yo GGG. Maybe boxing fans arenŽt such idiots after all, but youŽd never guess that reading these articles and the comments after..
