The belt thing is a somewhat fair criticism although that was after he already lost the belts and was no longer as motivated by them.
Yea he ridiculed Canelo because absolutely no one one was ducking Canelo. He could've fought Andrade, Charlo's or Jrock at the time but insisted on reaching all the way down to fight to the chinniest fighter to ever exist. At WW, Errol Spence was willing to fight Canelo but he ducked him for Khan. That's just pathetic. Meanwhile GGG was in negotiations for months, I believe with Jacobs at the time and that fight fell through because Jacobs ducked. Since he was working with Hearn, Brook was an easy switch and large payday too. Please tell me all these fighters who ducked Canelo forcing him to fight Khan and how Khan was the only payday left after those fighters ducked him?
Your argument about Mexican style is silly. It's called promoting and attempting to get a payday. Canelo barely won the 2nd fight but even still, most fans do not care about trash talk to promote a fight as long as it doesn't get too personal or out of bounds. Once again, you only care about this with GGG.
