    Thomas Hauser’s take on Canelo’s victory over Kovalev

    “With the victory, he staked a claim as the #1 pound-for-pound fighter in boxing today. And more significantly, he made a compelling case for being named “Fighter of the Decade.”

    Fighters are defined in terms of historical greatness in large measure by the quality of their opponents. No other fighter has accomplished in this decade what Canelo has accomplished.”

      I will bite.
      So how does Floyd get FOTY when he hasn't fought this year?

        Canelo had it all worked out with this one fight.
        Earn P4P1.
        4th weight division champ.
        Lock for FOTD.
        Gotta hand it to the Ginger he knows how to work the system and that's no dig on him either.
        Not many fighters are this astute.

          Crawford could’ve went to 154 and fight Jrock before the closing of the year since behind the scenes everyone “knew” what Canelo was attempting

            Yer.
            And you know that would have been a better accomplishment than what Nelo did, but hey I was applauding his business acumen.
            No need to be nasty. Lol.

                But don’t you have a Loma Avatar? Franchise bidness! So Jrock getting clipped by Charlo is better than Kovalev’s “controversial” losses to Ward which is why Crawford fighting Jrock is better than anything Canelo ever done? You didn’t even make a prediction, just fantasy right, and yet you acknowledge Bud didn’t?

                  I think most agree with this. Where is the whole article? Did he mention anything about Canelo testing positive for PED’s?

                    Yer I say Williams/Canelo would have been a tougher fight for Canelo than Kov.
                    What about it Widdit??
