    What about Zab Judah? Was he a great fighter when he was young, undefeated and untested too? After all, he had atheltic ability, raw talent, insane handspeed and good power. He was certainly more athletic than Canelo is now. I wouldn't even consider Canelo to be too athletic but for argument's sake let's pretend he is.

    This makes him a great fighter? Pretty ****** way to look at it.

    Is he a great fighter? The answer is obviously a resounding no.

    Will he be? That's yet to be seen as he's completely untested.

    Judah was also Undisputed Welterweight Champion of the world regardless of what era welterweight division he fought in but like I said time will tell. Canelo is 23 years old he has 7 years before he turns 30. This is about his popularity and how people just get all upset and wanna downplay his talent because he hasnt fought Pac, Floyd, and every major player in the division before his 21st birthday.


    Don't hate his popularity dude it's not his fault that people like him they just do.

      If Canelo was a WW I feel there would be little call for him to fight Floyd , they would all be saying he is too green , not experienced enough etc etc , in that , the Canelo fight is purely competitive in peoples minds because of the size Floyd is handicapped .
      Dude it's been over a year since I posted here last and you still got that Pic in your sig LOL!!! Update it man!!!

        Ok? And? Was he a great fighter when he was untested and undefeated too?

        This has nothing to do with how popular he is. I couldn't care less about how popular he is nor do I hate Canelo. What I hate is people calling him "Great" when he's done nothing to show it. And when people consider him to be the next Tommy Hearn's with his punching power when he's not finishing European level WW's.

        The fact of the matter is, Canelo is not a great fighter. Or atleast not yet and saying he is a great fighter at this point of his career and after the so little he has done is outright absurd.

            I don't think anyone on either side should get bent out of shape because it seems like hes fighting both.
            You think ginger is faster & smarter than the Ghost?? And a better boxer?? How the hell did you come to that conclusion??

                Guerrero is tailor made for Floyd. isn't that what you guys hate? Fighters choosing other righters that are tailor made for them?

                  Well, Canelo has been blasting WW's better compared to Guerrero who has to take them to decisions. I see their arguement

                    That doesn't necessarily mean he's faster, smarter or a better boxer though, does it?

                    It means he's probably a harder puncher, which is obvious.

                      This is true. Matt Hatton, Cintron, Gomez & Mosley were welterweights.

                      However Ayudin & Berto were better than all.
