    Why is GGG and Crawford rated higher than Canelo

    Canelo has one of the best resumes n the game and superb boxing skill yet he seems to always be rated below guys like GGG and Crawford who don't have as great of a quality resume? Why is this?

      Because some think that Canelo lost more than once.

        Canelo has defeated Lara, Cotto, Kirkland, Trout, Chavez Jr, and Khan. I've watched all these fights and it's pretty clean Canelo won them all.

            Famous names on a resume does not translate into a better resume, especially when the fighter in question usually has most of the advantages. At middleweight, GGG has a much better resume then Canelo.

              Coz Crawford and GGG didn't hide out at Crawford weight and GGGweight to avoid all the champions in their division, they also didn't drop their belts to avoid a a dangerous mandatory challenger.

                  THE perceived two best Middleweights in the division at 160 since 2014, when asked, including their mgmt, both said "not right now..."

                  #Jacobs #GGG

                  Until the WBA got shook regarding perhaps the WBC fiasco (behind the scenes), they forced two "Champion" WBAs to be a mandatory when Brook vs GGG was in play

                  People forget the WBA didn't acknowledge the Brook fight.

                  Lastly, when Lara ran up on Nelo he took the fight... again... both Jacobs and GGG wanted no part of each other, milking out their "Champ" powers

                    No it's not pretty clear that he beat Lara. Many think he clearly lost to Lara. Some even think Trout beat him-I don't but some do.
