    Comments Thread For: What the heck is Canelo Alvarez?s greatest win?

    I typically try not to use column space to pick on fellow writers, so I hope this will be regarded merely as a professional critique and in no way a personal attack. But in reading an article on ESPN.com?s boxing page Monday morning, my brow went full furrow over an opinion I read.

    It's probably better than buds best win. Plus Mel is bigger than bud, so will likely win on points. Sure decision might be controversial to some though

        You are making this way too complicated and the answer emphatically is GGG #2. He did not win the first one let's be real here, he was gifted a draw and this led GGG and fans to throw shade all over Canelo running and not fighting like a Mexican which seemed like suicide against a killer like GGG who before that second Canelo fight hadn't really shown a crack in his armor so when Canelo came in that second fight and gave GGG and the fans exactly what they asked for standing in front of him and fighting him and ultimately backing him up and winning those toe to toe exchanges he absolutely made fans (including myself) eat crow and won the event and gained the respect from a lot of detractors (again myself included only to lose it again with his duck job with David Benavidez) but he clearly impressed me more in this fight with GGG than any before or after no question about it.

          I still think Saul David can happen

          manny postponed Floyd for 5.5 years

          David is going through lot of wear and tear with Cuban David followed by Buff Guy Yarde. Possibly Artur next too

            Probably Jacobs but that was another close fight, another point on two of the judges cards and its a majority draw... Canelo faded badly in that one as well.

                Every boxer should have this question asked of them

                    His best win is Crawford. Specially if he KOs him before the 6th.
