What if Canelo Alvarez looked like the typical Mexican fighter?

    Is it for the same reason as the hate for Calzaghe, the Klitschkos, etc?
    I don't think there's any racial thing about people hating on Canelo, he has some indigenous blood looking at 2 of his brothers that are "morenos".

    It's more about the hype he gets, and how GBP protects him, Lara a GBP fighter is now in the shadows thanks to Canelo, and even tough Lara is one of his fighters GBP will try to dissapear him slowly, so he will not be a treat to Canelo.

    People in Mexico hate Canelo a lot, because Televisa always sells his opponents as the best ever, and people are not fools and now they are putting him vs smaller fighters like Jose Cotto and Matt Hatton, or shot fighters like Mosley and Cintron

    They are now calling him Grandpacutioner or "Mataviejitos"

          I agree with you in Televisa issue.

          I remember they were doing more promotion to him against Mosley, than promoting the main event that was Mayweather vs Cotto.

          Televisa should disappear seriously

                And yes, I think JCC beats a very overrated Martinez. No, I don't think JCC is a great fighter, but a solid fighter.
                you mean a steroid fighter

                      I think it's definitely because of the way he looks that people from some people from Mexico don't like him. It goes both ways really, if he was a "morenito" no one would pay attention to him, but since he's a red haired paled mexican people outside of mexico pay attention to him. Some people in Mexico usually hate or pick on the pale looking kid, they always make fun of him by calling him a "guerito."
