Is Canelo a top 50 - p4p fighter?

[The Surgeon]

I can agree that Canelo is over hyped as hell but he definitely has more talent then most the guys you named.

The problem is just that, its talent and not resume. Most of them have fought better fighters but wouldn't beat him head to head.

He gets way too much credit but he's still elite for hanging with trout

Hanging with Trout? I wanted Trout to win but Canelo was a CLEAR winner there. Some of em fought good fighters who were past it, he aint giving Saul credit for beating an old Mosley...

He is top 50, but I would rank him as top 30, perhaps top 20.

Danny Garcia. Who he beat? Glass jaw Khan coming in off a loss? Ancient Eric? Old Zab? And its not all about your resume though it certainly helps. Canelo is just better and its plain to see.

Juanma Lopez. Guys sloppy as hell and is probably finished.

Richard Abril. Yeah he deserved to beat Bam Bam, so what Rios isn't anything elite. He has losses on the record to Lundy and Presscott too.

Geale is pump, Alvarez would even beat him now at Middle.
Steve Cunningham, Marco Huck, Estrada, Viloria, Khan...**** there's loads mate your just plain hating and its weak.

I agree, except Estrada. He just beat Viloria, who was fringe top 10. And Gonzalez was a tossup.

I don't know if those are 50, but if not, they are ALMOST 50:
- I rank all those fighters above Canelo in the p4p list - and I will say it again: The only top fighter Canelo fought who was not smaller or past his prime, is Austin Trout and at least 50 % of all the people said that Trout beat Canelo. Here is the list:
Floyd Mayweather
Manny Pacquiao
Sergio Martinez
Andre Ward
Juan Manuel Marquez
Carl Froch
Wladimir Klitschko
Vitali Klitschko
Bernard Hopkins
Timothy Bradley
Lucas Matthysse
Danny Garcia
Abner Mares
Nonito Donaire
Robert Guerrero
Chad Dawson
Gennady Golovkin
Tomasz Adamek
David Haye
Steve Cunningham
Marco Huck (not the most talented fighter, but has wins against high quality opponents on his record)
Lucian Bute
Jean Pascal
Mikkel Kessler
Daniel Geale
Miguel Cotto
Devon Alexander
Amir Khan
Adrien Broner
Ricky Burns
Richar Abril
Yuriorkis Gamboa
Takashi Uchiyama
Mikey Garcia
Chris John
Juan Manuel Lopez
Guillermo Rigondeaux
Leo Santa Cruz
Anselmo Moreno
Shinsuke Yamanaka
Omar Narvaez
Brian Viloria
Juan Francisco Estrada

This is one of the ******est posts I've ever seen. You really complain about Canelo's competition then go and put Lucian Bute on your list?? Really?

Don't get me wrong. Most of this list is bad. How you have Santa Cruz, Ricky Burns, JuanMa, and Abril above Canelo is a mystery to me, especially if it's based on resume....Bute though lmao. That one is just too much.

I didn't even count them, I just put out a long list. So what is your point? I said 50 fighters are above Canelo on my p4p list and I gave you a list and now you found out the list is not 50 but almost 50? Now you want me to throw out 7 more names because in the 43 I gave you, you saw that those guys are INDEED above Canelo p4p. So now you want to hear 7 questionable names so you can attack me? How about go through the 43 names I gave you and try explain to me who is NOT deserving to be ranked above Canelo.

Whoah calm down, I just wanted to see the 50 fighters you think are better than Canelo.

[boliodogs]

I have him #10 now and I bet on him to beat Mayweather. If he does beat Mayweather then he will be on everyone's top 10 pfp. list

[Haterfree]

Yes he's a top 15 fighter

The thread should have ended after this post.
