    What do Mexican fans think of Canelo?

    Mexican fans aren't dumb like too many American fans and weren't going to let Fishnets keep protecting Howdy Doody from GGG.

    What do they think of him now? there used to be a lot of backlash i heard because of televisa and canelo being overhyped. Are they less harsh now because he fought top guys?

    Or not happy, as the booing of Canelo during the post fight interview showed?

    They're probably cool with the Lara and Golovkin gifts...

          C'mon man so you bracketed mexicans into two piles? There are number of reasons that extend beyond what you've said. Chavez Sr still to this day is a god among mexican fight fans and he had a hell of a lot of press during and after his career..the jealousy angle doesn't cut it here man because Sr had rolls back in the day and every major tv chick on his c*ck and still wasn't envied like you make it seem.

            Most Mexicans think Canelo is a very lucky KID. He always gets a gift decisions from the judges.

            What else can you ask for as a prize fighter?

              It's impossible to generalize.

                Canelo is very popular with most Mexican fans and that's one of the main reasons he makes the big bucks. You shouldn't call him Howdy Doody although you can if you want. It's as ****** and classless as calling GGG lil' g. Boxers deserve the respect to be called by their correct name even if you don't like them. Mexican fans aren't dumb and neither are American fans.

                    Don't listen to the fake Mexicans on this forum. Most of them are undercover Floyd fans. Mexicans in real life despise Canelo.
