    They were extremely popular, as is Canelo. But we're they doing big PPV #'s (without the likes of De La Hoya, etc.)

    I don't recall them carrying PPVs and doing big numbers.

    AND as for Trinidad, anyone as good as him from PR is destined for stardom. Their special fighters are far and few in between.

      I think Canelo owns more horses than cars, he doesn't carry himself like some godly human. I think it's about the boxing with him, more than the superstardom.

        It just doesn't mesh well. You NEED to speak English to be a superstar in USA. It can be broken, it can be ebonic, but it just has to be. PERIOD.
        yup, he seriously needs to start brushing up on his english and giving interviews, cant be worse than golovkin lol.

          His ticket to super stardom is by beating GGG

            That's all a bunch of BS.Canelo is not only an excellent fighter but he is extremely popular especially with Mexicans. Why do you think he gets paid the big bucks????????? I know you hate him but saying he isn't popular is just fucing ridiculous.

              no kidding.

              english has NATHAN to do with being a big draw.

              like if roberto duran wasn't in his prime right now he wouldn't be killing the PPV game.

                  True but Tito had that young kid look and smile, and Chavez's will and passion showed through when he fought. Canelo could overcome the lack of English if he showed that sort of urgency in the ring...particularly against Floyd and Cotto. He showed some passion during his post fight press conference when talking about Mexico and GGG...that was pretty cool. First time I've seen him show emotion that came across on TV

                    The only unique aura canelo has is being a white mexican with a red hair.
