    Mosley, Cotto. Trout, Lara are potential, or at least better than any opponent AJ has fought.
    None of them ruled any division for a decade

      That wasn't your question. Your question was How many future hof fighters has Canyellow beat???? Definetly no more than Joshua. And definitely not in his first 20 pro fights.

      I answered it.

      Fury beat Wlad when he was in his decade long reign. AJ beat him coming off an 18 month layoff and a loss. And Fury had an easier time beating him than AJ did.

        Wlad was the best, was the face of the division for eons and Joshua got off the canvas to crush him. He didn't just outpoint him with cute moves; he broke his face.

        When did Canelo crush a valid opponent? Ever?

        Oh wait, he DID fight an ancient Floyd. Did he win a single round, really? He ******.
        Like I said, you must be on crack if you think Wlad was the best in the division two weeks ago.

        Fury already had beaten him. Wilder, Parker and Ortiz have been more active.

        Wlad hasn't won a fight since April 2015, but as of two weeks ago, he was the best in the division? LMAO!!

So if you want to go back to Canelo/Smith then the proper comparison is Joshua/Molina. As for Cotto fight I brought that up because clearly Canelo's fight tomorrow doesn't have any figures yet but we do know that it has ALREADY exceeded the live gate of Canelo/Cotto which had the same ticket prices as Canelo/Chavez but in a smaller venue. Please son try and keep up. Either way you want to play with the numbers Canelo's fight's draw more. You all giddy because Joshua filled up 90K but Floyd literally owns the entire top 10 alltime in live gates generated and he never fought in even a 20K venue to do that. Tickets for Canelo's fights simply cost more then UK cheap tickets. And Canelo's PPVs cost more then cheap UK PPVs thats why he generates more. The Cotto fight sold just 10k tickets yet made MORE money off ticket sales then what Joshua did last week and Chavez will blow that number out the park tomorrow.

          Joshua based on the price of his PPVs has to SELL over 3X as many as Canelo does just to match the money he generates. Because UK PPV cost about 20 bucks while in US they cost about 70 bucks for PPV. He sold 90K tickets and still made less money off tickets because they charge MORE money for each ticket in vegas. Avg ticket sold for Joshua fight last weekend is about 100 bucks. The avg ticket sold for Canelo fight is well over 800 bucks.
          No I didn't but since that fight hasn't happened, it's pointless to compare.

            Can see Joshua being the face of Boxing, he's great for the sport I'm a fan of him.

                Canelo will be the bigger star because he will last longer

                  This is a toughie.

                  hypothetically, if they both win all their fights available Canelo would be much bigger.

                  Canelo Opponents: GGG, Jacobs, Charlos x2, Lemieux,
                  Andrade, Lara rematch.

                  Joshua Opponents: Wilder, Fury, Ortiz, Parker, Ruiz.

                  Joshua has a much easier task but less impressive fights. that stamina and chin might be his downfall.

                  Canelo has a tough tough task especially coming up to a new weight. Its probably not the case that if they all fight each other at 160 no one leaves unscathed.

                      Canelo is Ginger, which works against him, even in Mexico.
                      Please

                      Canelo looking white is what mexicans LOVE about him.

                      If he looked like the average mestizo(like you) he'd be fighting in a bull ring somewhere...that's when he's not washing dishes at the Olive Garden.
