I ain't saying Chavez doesn't have his own personal controversies. Familial issues, alcoholism and ******* addiction, cartel association, the backing Don King which gives him a edge like the rest of King's fighter who he had leeched on.
But a picker ain't one of em.
Julio is a crafty infighter, who gave his utmost in top level fights.
Canelo is a generalist who has above average attributes and skill wise, can press and counter who do a tad of either, quite solid but isn't the best at any area nor shouldn't had been winning on the scorecards so dominantly excepting some fights.
Alvarez Waits for the appropiate conditions, whether it's a aged fighter or a fight brought up a division.
Then waits for a opportunity to turn the tides to have the sucess to win on the scoreboards. Whether it's Plant or Saunders, Cotto or Mosley, and Khan or Charlo.
Can't say I ever seen him do such memorable fights to what Chavez at his prime displayed performances when it came to top level competition when he did win.
Personally opinion is that ability and skill wise in respective division. Alvarez isn't as good, just had major backing and quite well skilled enough to pull off wins with more opponents with certain conditions or circumstances though they are exceptions.
If you enjoy his fights that's good for you, though even if I wasn't around to see Chavez, Finito Lopez and Sanchez time from 80-90s, their fights are quite entertaining like Barrera, Morales ans Marquez. Can't say the same for Canelo though he had entertaining displays of head movements and finishes.
