    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.
    Take from my comment what you will.
    To say Nelo should always fight the top guys available while these loveable boogeymen sit around waiting for their turn while beating up BUMS is exactly what's going on
