Canelo's Resume Is Not Impressive - Let's Be Honest

[therealpugilist]

Gennady Gonad Garglers..... if you left a comment trashing Canelo's resume when your hero has the resume of a fighter in his mid 20s, not a top 3 p4p, well you need to shoot yourself in the head and lay off the sauce


no room to talk!!!!

These GGG fans are running rampant and butt hurt because other fighters are making moves and taking big fights while they are stuck, yet again, making excuses why GGG has a crap resume and is supposed to be the best at 160 and a toP 3 p4p guy

dUDE literally has the worse resume of any fighter to be considered top3 p4p

Don't hate the player, hate the game. Canelo took risky fights and has earned his spot in the game. He is now the one that can call the shots and dictate terms.
Trout was as big a risk as any fighter has taken in the last decade or more. He loses that fight then no Floyd fight and he is in a much different position.
He had a chance to be an ODL type star had he beaten Floyd. He came up short but raised his stock and built himself back up just as he is entering his physical prime.
You can pick apart any fighters resume in hindsight.
Mayweather's fights against Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana, and others won't look as good 10 years from now but were solid fights at the time he took them....damn now I am defending Floyd. Time to log off for the night.

The only thing he came up short with against Floyd was on the judges scorecards. Other than that he was totally useless in the fight.

That's a damn good resume and you desperately trying to turn it into a poor one. Lara made himself look foolish by running away all fight like a scared rabbit. The majority of fans and experts thought Canelo deserved to win a close fight by chasing Lara and landing the harder blows while coming forward. It's mainly Canelo haters like you who insist Lara won. Only the most extreme Canelo haters try to say he lost to Trout. Trout himself said Canelo beat him. Smith was a reigning world champion. Canelo is high up on the top 10 best pound for pound lists of many respected boxing places like Boxrec, ESPN, Ring magazine, HBO,Boxing Scene and others. Strangely enough they all think he has a good resume. Keep on hating while Canelo keeps on winning and making the big bucks that very good, and very exciting fighters sometimes do.

Meanwhile you are running rampant and butt hurt because GGG is so highly regarded by many fans and respected boxing experts. GGG has a good resume. It's only a crap resume to unreasonable, unfair bias GGG haters like you.You say his next fight will be against a no hoper. I say his next fight will be against champion Jacobs or champion Saunders and I'll bet you any or all of your points against an equal number of mine on that. If I knew you in person and lived near you I'd offer you a cash bet. PM me if you want to put your points where your mouth is and we can set up a bet. I know points aren't worth anything but I just want to prove you wrong because you are completely wrong about GGG.

I'm not much of a Canelo fan but he does have a good resume, whether haters like it or not. Of course he has some weak fighers on his resume, who doesn't? But he won every other fight except Floyd (which was just a money grab imo) so he deserves credit for that, regardless of how close those fights were.

Let's not pretend Canelo ever had a chance against Floyd. That fight was a money fight and i doubt Canelo gave a damn about winning it and Floyd schooled him regardless

I agree but disagree. His resume, the actual names on it, is excellent. On paper, it's absolutely excellent resume, especially considering how young he is.

I have a problem with his resume because of Canelo himself. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Canelo is ALWAYS bigger than his opponent. The rehydration game he perfected is the reason he's not on anyone's P4P list.

Exagerrating a bit, but imagine if Glowacki or Lebedev beat Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev and Stevenson.
