Canelo now calling out Sergio Martinez? LOL. sure.
Well, in my opinion Canelo was looking forward to a fight with Victor Ortiz. You know why? Cause Canelo fights only 2 sorts of fighters: totally shot ones, and much smaller ones. Ortiz fits in the 2nd category.
Ortiz is basically a 140 pound fighter (who just got beaten by another natural 140 pound fighter in a welterweight fight), and Canelo was thinking "this boy is way too small for me. Looking forward to beating up Ortiz".
Let's look at Canelo's opponents in his world title fights:
He won the 154 pound title against a natural 147 pounder- Matthew Hatton who has heart, but is an average fighter at best. Recently Kell Brook outclassed Matthew Hatton. So that's how the "great" Canelo became world champion. Then Canelo fought Ryan Rhodes who is a little above average fighter at the end of his career.
Next opponent of "the legend" Canelo was Alfonso Gomez, another much smaller fighter who cant punch. Gomez is all heart but no power and no big skills. Cotto outclassed Gomez many many years earlier.
Now Canelo fought 2 fighters who were on the elite level, but: they were totally done and at the end of their careers. Which means: they were NOT elite anymore when Canelo fought them: Kermit Cintron and Shane Mosley.
That being said: Canelo is a cherrypicking fraud. A piece of garbage. And I dont think he is a bum cause he is not. But I cant stand fighters who use their promotions to fight shot fighters and bums their whole career. Lets be honest, this dude is making a career of beating bums and totally shot fighters. And THAT makes Canelo a disgrace to boxing.
