    with that said - anywhere between 1-3 imo. depending on how dominant the win is - i.e if he knocks canelo out or wins a sd/md.
    Cant speak for everyone but i think the whole 'if they were the same size who would win' thing is impossible to judge.

    Joshua is never going to be able to do what a flyweight does, and a flyweight wouldnt be able to do what they do if they are 250lbs.

    I just judge on the quality of the wins. How good were the opponents, how did they perform, and obviously, are they still as good now as they were when they achieved what they did..

      Still sixth IMO, a win over Canelo isn't really that significant over a guy I don't feel should be top ten, Canelo is too limited. All the top p4p fighters should have at least good foot work as a bare minimum requirement, Canelo simply has not, his footwork is mediocre at best.

        No2.

        Ward has to be 1. His resume is the best in the world atm.

          Personally, I'd have him at #2, which I know is an unpopular opinion from those who think it's either too generous or too conservative.
          I think a lot of people saying it'll be easy are thinking that because of Canelo's cement feet. If he was quicker on his toes I'd probably pick him. Also while Canelo has better combos GGG has the better jab. I could see a lot of different outcomes since it's a toss up fight but lean towards GGG stopping him.

          Having said that I'd probably say #2. Ward would still be #1. Wouldn't hate on people having Crawford above him but would say canelo is a better victory than anything Crawford has. To the a$$hat saying he'd be behind Spence and Thurman pass that ish over here cause you got some fire.

            Yea, Crawford is so tough to place. He's doing things as impressively as Golovkin does, against similar level competition, but lacks that 1 big victory, same as Golovkin. If Golovkin beats Canelo, I'd have to place him above Crawford. But, that could quickly turn if Bud went up and beat Keith.

            Also, about Canelo's footwork, people are easily fooled by his lack of footwork but his upper-body movement is pretty impressive. It allows him to not only generate a lot of power, but work those famous combos of his because his feet are planted. I don't see it as a flaw so much as a different style that a lot of fans don't appreciate. But, that's another topic alltogether.

              I'd have him at #2 only behind Ward, especially if he wins by KO/TKO.

                He'd be #2, only behind Ward.

                      A good win over Canelo added to his already great record and fine displays of excellent fighting skills in recent fights would put him number one on my PFP list.
