Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez is an Excellent Fighter... But Not The Best

[Goodtry]

The article does not contain any word about "Mexican meat", therefore, I see this article more or less relevant. if someone was intended to discredit Canelo "the meat" would be metioned and not once.
IMHO, cheater can not be P4P#1. For me it is question who was winning fights Canelo or PEDs?

you " resume " guys, this is it right here.....

style / skills / form, will win you a fight..... resume, will not

you are only as good as your last fight in boxing

[Loque-san]

Canelo's resume is head and shoulders above Loma's and Crawford's, it's not even funny. The difference in quality is so obvious that Rosenstein counted Martinez and Rigondeaux for Loma and Dulorme and Khan for Crawford haha. If you count those as good wins then let's add Mosley, Angulo, Kirkland and Chavez when talking about Canelo's record. Canelo looked like a killer in those fights too. Loma's resume is decent but Crawford's is laughable.

Really dumb article by an author trapped in his own solipsism. He actually says that "many thought Lara won" etc.

I'm just sick of people preferring an "0" to a resume also.

Nel o is making everyone look elite and world class and needing judges to give him gift decisions which shows he's not the best fighters in world.
Best in division maybe.
But he's no lomo

I agree 100%
Canelo is overated and boring as hell to watch.
I get no pleasure in watching corrupt judging.
This crap is for old drunks with no life.

after his recent poor showing vs danny jacobs alvarez does not deserve to be in anybodys top 10 nothing more than a fraud and a product of media and promoter hype imagine if this wannabee had to face hagler hearns or even a prime hopkins at 160

F.uck no he’s not #1 P4P

Anyone saying that needs to hop on the short bus. First off he’s popped hot that should exclude him right there

But even if you think it’s cool that Canelo used / using PEDs if he was judged like every other fighter and not the Golden Goose $ man who gets every possible break from the Judges he’d have at least 3 Ls and probably a couple Draws

Every time he fought the best in the Division he should have taken a L (147-Mayweather/154-Lara/ 160-Golovkin 2x ) Think how different he’d be looked at if he fought and was judged on a level playing field he’d be looked at as a good fighter that always came up short fighting the best. Or with the exception of a handful of his fights wasn’t fighting a opponet that wasn’t at the most advantageous for him . His career trajectory would be completely different

I’m a hater but Canelo has massive nuts and a throwback attitude and will genuinely fight anyone and wants to prove he’s the best and he should gets major props for that because it seems most fighters aren’t built like that. And the dude has a fan friendly fighting style , But he isn’t anywhere near the best in the sport

Ask yourself would the best fighter of his era in the sport need help from judges to get Ws or every time he fights a HOF caliber opponet they are always over the age of 35 when at best most boxers are in the twilight of their career if not out right shot to Pieces. And when he fought those caliber of opponents he was embarrassed by Mayweather, Should have caught the Ls against Gennady . The Cotto fight was actually a close fight regardless of the cards 6-6 to 8-4 kind of fight and Mosley was over 40 hadn’t won in over 3 years and was a bag of dust when they fought

Legit #1 P4Ps ( Ward / Mayweather ) you cant make the claims that you can make against Canelo because they are truly the best in the sport

The title of the article itself is going to generate an angry female like emotion from several sensitive groupies on this site.

Who the hell is that idi.iot Michael Rosenthal?


The same Floyd had a lot of competitive and close wins:

Castillo I.
Maidana I.
Óscar.
Pacquiao.
Was struggling with Judah.


Loma LOST against Salido and his opposition is sh.it.

Crawford the same... best win is a small Gamboa

This white people trying to be the only voice of boxing is pure sh.it
