    Great Resume for a 23-24(?) year old. Twice he's rose to the occasion and fought guys who many thought were a bad style match-up for him, and he beat them. A mediocre fighter loses against his last four opponents.

      Man this place is full of ****, there's no room for competitive fights. You either dominate or your a bum. The kid is all hype yet he fought the best in his last 4 fights winning 3 of those fights agaisnt quality opponents. The robbery claims are hilarious doe he's a hypejob.

        Lol come on. Canelo doesn't have to fight Ward or Hopkins to get schooled



        I don't think he even beats Geale or Martin Murray.

          Hype job???

          He's probably got the best JMW resume around right now. Trout and Lara were the #1 guys there basically or one of the top 2 there. And Angulo was a Top 10 guy. Lara and Trout were guys he was supposed to avoid and never fight, and then get schooled by.

          They were close fights but he beat them. And he's still only 23. I might just become a fan because of all the blatant bias hate coming from you guys.

            He is no hypejob didn't gas either.He did better than expected, but that is it no Canelo fans other than him and his mom openly saying he won the fight. That fight was a draw for Canelo best case scenario for him . But we don't live there now do we.

              His résumé/record is severely inflated.


              If he fights guys the level of Lara and above the rest of his career, and not old brawlers like Angulo. He can lose 4 in a row easily

                Who the hell wouldn't lose to 2 of the best fighters in the past decade.. Losing to Hopkins and ward doesn't make you a hype job

                He will lose bad against the guys at his real weight class (middleweight).
                Who dominates top fighters,, there is about 5 guys in the entire world that dominate top level guys consistently ie Floyd, ward, rigo, manny, wlad at heavy..

                Bradley, jmm, cotto, froch, and many more world class fighters haven't dominated another top fighter...

                I can see how canelo isn't a p4p guy, but he def isn't a hype job, he has proven he belongs at the world class level

                  I get the feeling that any 1 of PacMan, Bradley, Cotto, or GGG would beat him handily.

                    I just don't think Trout is that good. And Canelo barely beat him. Angulo is and old, shot brawler and he was punxhing air most of the night against Lara


                    Had Lara thrown more punches. He could of definitely won



                    It has Nothing to do with this fight. I always thought he was overrated

                      Title should have been the "OFFICIAL Bash Canelo Thread". It would have been more fitting
