This isn't even a good comparison because chavez wasn't a champion until around his 50-60th fight. So he wasn't expected to fight the top dogs division yet because he was still climbing title contention. Canelo on the other hand was basically given a title at 154 by fighting mathew hatton who isn't a 154 lb fighter, and just fighting the weaker part of the division and having fighters move up instead of fighting the other champions or contenders. When chavez became champion his whole championship fights are built around fighting the other top fighter in his division and not "milking the title" even tho canelo now is fighting trout, he still milked that title for to long.
Canelo was being crucified even before he was a champion so your post holds no ground or water or fire
