Comments Thread For: Nacho: Canelo is Not The Best, He's Had Some Scoring Help

[whoseyourdaddy]

canelo had some close fights vs elite competition, but some here are acting like those are pac-bradley type of robbery...

Exactly Canelo had some close controversial fights but it is because he stepped up to the plate and fought the best. Even against the whishes of his promoter (hence the Floyd, Trout and Lara fights) of course there would be controversy, they are close even fights. How many times Lara called Floyd out? no one wanted to fight him and yes I say it not even Floyd, except Carlos Molina and Canelo.

Of course there will be controversy when two elite fighters fight it is because they are evenly match. That the money guy gets the benefit of the doubt most of the time..... well no sh¿t!!! it did not started with Canelo. My favorite fighter of all time Sugar Ray Leonard lost in a close fight with Haggler(IMO), but he was the money man and he was awarded the decision. We have many stories like this through out boxing history, but people chose to ignore it.

Nacho isn't lying.

If he will admit JMM PEDs!

This old fart has literally bashed canelo non-stop since he was a teenager that's how far back his agenda goes. I still remember him saying canelo would be nothing that he was just a illusion not a real fighter. I remember him predicting that Angulo would beat him. I remember him predicting that GGG would not only KO Canelo would destroy him and retire him. When what he predicts doesn't happen he still refuses to give credit and discredits every Canelo win. The man still screams Cotto was robbed. He's a broken record anytime he mentions Canelo it's to bash him, been that way for a decade now. Saying he's bias and hates canelo is a understatement.

Nacho & JMM on drugs!

Someone ask Canelo what his thoughts are about the first 3 Pacquiao/Marquez fights

The fourth JMM on PEDs!

I'm not gonna get ****** into argument about how many losses could/should/would Canelo have, but one thing is definitely true - he's had some scoring help. He gets every close card/decision his way, and even when he was clearly outclassed, his promoters bought him a Draw card against Mayweather.

Good to have the right connections.

While he is not completely wrong...it is also well known that Nacho and JMM are not Canelo fans for whatever reason

It's fine to say that Lara and G1 were close. That's true. "fair" is the real question. I don't think Lara was a "fair" result. A draw would have been "fair" there.

I honestly feel that Lara deserved the win as did G in the first fight.

To the original point about scoring, look at every fight Canelo's had. There's been at least one completely off scorecard. EVERY time.

No , Lara and GGG never deserved that win against Canelo

They don't did anything great than him, maybe a D to Lara

Exactly, thats my point

[Mexican_Puppet]

How can anyone question Nacho, one of the few legends in the sport. Canelo should have lost to Lara and GGG, even if you score the 2nd GGG fight a draw thats fair. That means GGG is still the #1 and undefeated middleweight in the world and Canelo has a couple losses, but is still a great fighter.

No way in the ****.ing world GGG deserved the win in the rematch

exactly right. Scratch the mayweather fight and just focus on the ridiculous scorecards VS trout, lara, Cotto and ggg in the first fight. There were official judges who gave Canelo 40 rounds and only gave trout, lara Cotto and ggg 8 rounds. Can't thing of 1 boxer ever in history that has had more ridiculous scoring in their favor. Many who secured those fights had Canelo losing 2 of them and getting close wins in the other 2.
