Unfortunately when someone is too good compared to the rest of the division, even simply fighting and clearing out all the top ranked fighter in each organization in order ends up becoming a mismatch. I guess I just need to be glad that atleast Inoue doesn't have a peculiar habit of ignoring the existence of a top contender who's been in your own division for multiple years even if it meant fighting a bloated guy brought up not one but TWO divisions below.

Yeah, not that impressive but sometimes it is what it is. I guess that is why Canelo chose to fight Berlanga instead who had a win over...

...Serious question who is considered Berlanga's best win, the UD against Angulo who's notable achievement was lasting until the end 10R before retiring against Benavidez?Comment

...That statement is just unbelievably insulting to Canelo. By claiming Berlanga's best win is no better/worse than Benavidez or Munguia's best (Angulo for example sake) win, you are implying that Canelo fought...
Plant aka equivalent to Angulo (it was a necessity in order to go undisputed so I personally got no qualms on it)
Bivol (the last time Canelo strived for greatness. Even though he lost it doesn't change the fact that he had the willingness to challenge himself)
GGG aka stay busy cash grab (old and overrated as we both seem to agree, basically a pre-retirement cash out)
Ryder aka equivalent to Angulo (Berlanga's best win)
Jermell aka stay busy cash grab (bloated up light middleweight, seems to be a cash out prior to early retirement so far)
Munguia (best win the equivalent of Angulo)
Berlanga (who's best win is...Angulo)
Canelo could've potentially had Plant for undisputed, Bivol for attempting greatness, GGG 3 (cash out), Benavidez, Morrell, then Munguia before having to start facing the likes of Berlanga to claim that he went undisputed, challenged for greatness, got a stay busy cashout, then cleaned out the division of all the leftover top contenders from top to bottom, then just killing time going down the list until he's ready to go take on the 175 beltholders again.
Overall I just see it unfortunate that his refusal to take on Benavidez or Morrell all but confirms that Canelo won't ever be fighting Bivol ever again considering he thought Benavidez/Morrell were too risky to fight despite being the favorite to win if they had faced eachother. It is all but a guarantee that the winner of Beterbiev/Bivol will wipe the floor with Benavidez/Morrell, but if Canelo didn't even want to touch the latter what makes you think he will actually fight Bivol again who is significantly better than both.Comment
