Ok playing devil's advocate here: Your right Ward gets a gift for that first Kov fight. Now looking back at any great fighter, how many "gifts" has Ward gotten? Usually Ward wins in such dominant fashion that it is never contraversal. This includes a tournament against the best in the division at the time.Guys in here acting like Kovalev didn't get robbed in the first Ward fight when they're mentioning Canelo getting gifts.
Give me Canelo all day. He's got years ahead of him and it won't even be close. 20 years from now, Canelo will still be talked about like May and Pac, Ward won't ever be mentioned unless old age Max Kellerman is telling stories at the senior center
Didn't Mayweather receive a few gifts along the way?
My point is that all fighters will catch a few breaks... Some like Broner half his wins were breaks! Then we look at Ward and he catches a close decision agains Kov, and then wins the next one with a perfect counter punch... which is really what beat the russian.
YOu forget one thing: Ward can always come out of retirement and beat canelo what would that do to ward's legacy!! What would that do against Mayweather's legacy? Inquiring minds want to know.Comment

I still have to give the slight edge to Ward as he's been more dominant inside of the ring but this one is close.Comment
