    Would Canelo be #1 at 154 if he moved back down?

    If Canelo moved back down, would he automatically be the #1 guy? If not who would you say he has to beat to get the #1 spot? Or do you think he would/could Unify 154?

      The only fights I care about seeing him in next are either: Golovkin or Middleweight fights.


      Unless, he fights at 154, then he better fight Andrade or either Charlo brother.

            I think you'd have to put him #1. I surely would, but that division would be tough for him to fend off. Jermall Charlo, Andrade, Julian Williams would be gunning for him with the potential Brook and Spence moving up in the future.

              The guy to beat is Lara, but I scored their fight a draw. I can live with Canelo winning because he just acted like he wanted to win more than Lara. Idk how Lara let that fight slip from him

                154 is actually better with out him right now, they're all set to fight each other, almost like a Tournament setup for 154 right now. Of course the Charlo Brothers won't fight each other but hopefully the winner of Andrade vs Willie Nelson gets a shot at winner of Charlo vs Jackson or Charlo vs Trout. That is probably my favorite Division right now, also have Lara vs Vanes, not sure how long Lara will remain at 154 but that Division is SO talented and it is great to see everybody at the top of 1 Division getting set to fight each other

                As for Canelo, yes he would still be #1 IMO if he would've stayed at 154. The only problem is with his Promoter suing Haymon, how would it be possible for him to actually FIGHT all of those Haymon fighters. Yeah I know he is fighting Khan who is still with Haymon but I think Khan situation seems a bit more different.

                Stop with coming up with a exit plan for him from fighting GGG and put pressure on him to STEP UP and fight GGG. If Canelo drops the belt and is still a Draw Afterwards then I honestly don't know what to say about Today's "Boxing Fans"

                    It was a terrible gameplan. Lateral movement is apart of boxing but he overused and made him look scared. It allowed Canelo to take over ring generalship at times. But i agree, i had it a draw but a Canelo win was expected & ok with me.
