Why Canelo should be number 1 on everyone's list

[_Rexy_]

I just don't think he's as good a fighter as Loma or Crawford. Solid #3 though, with Usyk in 4th.

I've got Usyk and Inoue ahead also.

His level of opposition is right there but dominance is also one the factors to consider. Then you have a mythical h2d match-up. Canelo is right there but he's not #1 yet.

If this is based on comparing resumes only, then Canelo it is.

I really don't mind Nelo being no1 as he has taken risks. He might not even have beat the guys he took risks against or looked as good as other pfp candidates. But I think he should be rewarded for taking on the best, even if the best were overated.
Even though I think GGG beat Nelo twice. It wouldn't be fair to have GGG above Nelo on paper.
Even though most think GGG has 2 wins, or at least a win and draw h2d unofficially over Nelo.
Just like I think Pac should have been no1 over Floyd, when Pac was beating better fighters than Floyd and taking more risks, but was still no2 pfp?.

You shouldn’t even be considered #1 when you’ve been busted with PEDs

Let’s not even get into preferable scoring from judges and Ws that should have been Ls that would make his career be judged completely different if he was judged like every other fighter

Yes his resume is outstanding but he been the Mexican Golden child since the start so he has the clout not only to get the names in the ring with him also has the pull to fight them when the deck is stacked and most advantageous to him whether it’s ( Age /size / inactivity/ Preferable Judges ) Canelo rarely fights a opponet when their at their best or on a level paying field.

Canelo isn’t anywhere near the best fighter on the planet and anyone saying otherwise is either being dishonest with themselves or blinded by fanboy love they have for him.

You could make an excellent case depending on what you think you saw in his 2 fights with Golovkin. I have him one loss and one draw. To be #1, at least for me, he needs a clear win over that rival.

P4P which is highly subjective is based on who would beat who if they were the same size. Resume is what sell tickets.

easy to forget Usyk since he was in the CW "subdivision" but what he has done is surely top three, going undisputed and undefeated in a title tournie.
