Comments Thread For: Oscar De La Hoya: It's the fighters who are killing the sport

Canelo has fought way better opposition than Munguia. Munguia has never faced anyone in the level of Erislandy Lara, and never will.

Yes, still it's the same path, after his loss vs canelo he should put him against a boxer with a 50/50 chance, but like you I doubt that he will do that.

There's plenty of blame to go around. Fighters who are afraid to risk their undefeated records, managers, promoters and networks hyping up B and C level opponents into mismatches, and casual fans who are easily duped into believing the hype around some fighters.
