Fighter of the decade will be Canelo

[Wolfie*]

Most definitely have a case. If he beats jacobs and goes up to face Callum Smith and beats him. He'll be it unanimously. He has by far the best resume in boxing aside from pac.

[R_Walken]

Yeah the fighter of the decade should be Canelo

It’s not like he needed biased judging to get wins over Lara & Golovkin

Or was popped for steroids

Definitely FOTD material right there

[Lomadeaux]

2-3 losses? You're ******ed bro.

Do you watch boxing?

[BigZ44]

Larry, can you give us a prediction on who the fighter of the next decade will be?

[QballLobo]

how are they risks when he knows the judges are gonna back him???

People said BBB side was going to KO him in the first round.
Trout was coming off getting a decision against Miguel Cotto IN NYC.
Canelo was going up in weight for those fights, not a forgone conclusion it goes to a decision.
He had a Mayweather payday on the line. Most of these young fighters now wouldn’t risk that.

[Joe Beamish]

If the key criterion is "most dominant boxer", I'd give it to Floyd.

-- Better wins than Canelo
-- Beat Canelo head to head with ease
-- No positive testing for PEDs
-- Pacquaio won the award for the 2000s decade, it's Floyd's turn

But if the criteria are more about popularity, and who is the new face of boxing, then Canelo.

can someone give me a straight answer, how can you be fighter of the decade when youve never been considered p4p number 1, so the best fighter in the sport, at any given time????

just another guy with a bunch of great on paper accolades, but is far from convincing as a top p4p type fighter.

p4p could be just due to eye test, fotd is more of accomplishments ... canelo beats jacobs and got this one without a doubt...
crawford could be p4p #1 just like ggg was at some point but neither has enough accomplishments to be fotd...

[LADIV]

if canelo is fighter of the decade then what does it say about golovkin that the vast majority of people thought he beat canelo at the age of 36???

not the vast majority only the ggg c ock riders everybody else thought canelo won..

[Earl-Hickey]

Also Maidana and Pac were with controversy. Plus earlier in his career to many he lost to an old Oscar De La Hoya and he DEFINITELY LOST to Castillo. That robbery was CRIMINAL.

No, those fights were not robberies

Lara maybe deserved the draw but not the win, the draw was good in the first fight with GGG

The second was a good win to Nelo

Trout
Lara
GGG X2

I'm not a canelo hater at all, or a GGG fan.

I actually prefer canelo if anything I think he takes on tough challenges and was at a size disadvantage vs GGG

But I can't make an argument that he shouldn't have at least ONE loss from all those fights
