    You know what's the main difference between Canelo Alvarez and Manny Pacquiao? Pac defeats younger men while Canelo defeats older ones. Pac makes my list because at forty and one half years old he defeated a much younger fighter ten years his junior who was also undefeated.

    While Canelo defeated a much older fighter almost ten years his senior who was well beyond his best and past his prime. I am sorry but you don't get browning points from me for beating up older men.

      Floyd should fight Ggg next. Ggg didn't look good. Should be easy for floyd
      Folks have ceilings. WW is both the ceiling for Pac and May. It's not where you start, it's where you finish.

        I don't know. It seems close but Canelo gets the edge for Jacobs and Kovalev.

          Thurman can also be critique for not be %100 after a long lay off.

            The difference between Canelo and Wilder is that Wilder defeated a man who has never been defeated before until he fought him and his only two losses came from the same man who fought him twice; Deontay wilder. In addition, he has been avoided for most of his career. While Canelo defeated a man who already had two losses on his record in Daniel Jacobs.

              Josh taylor. He beat prime undefeated fighters although people dont seem to care about if an opponest is prime or not any more.

                Hell no to Canelo, fought ONE fighter he was supposed to fight in Jacob. No one asked for no damn Kov fight which was a cherry pick, when BETTER competition was out there for him to fight.

                Smh at being impressed by a cheery picked fight.

                  Which is very true; However, Thurman was still challenging a forty and one half year old fighter at the time. Therefore, I have to give Pac full credit for that victory.

                    I view Jacobs as an equal, maybe better, challenge as Ortiz.
