    An upset is an upset, doesn't make the upsetter a great/good fighter

    But who do you think the better win is on Holyfield's resume, a past his best Mike Tyson in 1996, or Buster Douglas just coming off of beating a prime Tyson in 1990?

    The better win will always undoubtedly be Mike Tyson, no matter if Douglas KO'ed Tyson

      khan and kirkland were glass chinned boxers who were chery picked to make canelo look like a big puncher because his fights against solid opposition like cotto, floyd, and trout were underwhelming to say the least.

        GGG and Canelo are both favorites of mine. I thought Canelo looked like a million bucks knocking out Kirkland who was still a dangerous opponent. You might as well get used to GGG getting hated because in addition to having many fans he has a huge group of haters. The very best fighters often get the most hate. Few waste their hate and jealousy on average fighters. They save it for the best fighters that they hate. Never mind that the fighter has done nothing to deserve so much hate.

          Ishida was a great win for GGG he could have retired after that masterpiece

              Lol at the poster acting ignorant, pretending they haven't seen Kirkland listed as a one of Canelo's best wins along with Angulo by several posters.

                    Neither one of you named names. You want to stir up **** but avoid confrontation with the individuals you are talking about.

                    Just like GGG. Talk bad about Canelo in interviews but while in the ring with him just stand there and smile to avoid confrontation.

                      You can find many examples of that here...
