    However, credit is still due because some of these other guys would have never gone near a slick defensive wizard after that schooling.

    Canelo didn't go anywhere near that type of guy after Lara either especially since many people feel he lost the fight, but again, credit to him for taking it in the first place.
    Canelo absolutely had a choice. He could have fought anybody else and still headlined a successful card. If I remember correctly De La Hoya even came out and said he had tried to convince Alvarez to go in another direction.

    So no, Canelo gets full credit for taking on that challenge.

      Funny how you same people that never gave credit to Wladimir for clearing out a weak HW division and unifying damn near all the belts or all of them, are over here jerking off to Crawford unifying an equally weak division.

      I know the difference, different skin pigmentation.
      Klitschko never unified the division. Why would he get credit for NOT doing something that Crawford actually did?

        you asked a question about white fighters beating Mexican fighters, I answered it and now you want to move the goal post by saying American. So I can say Kelly pavlik beat Marco Antonio Rubio in a world title fight. I can also say how many Mexicans have ever been a force above middleweight? But none of that has anything to do with how Canelo vs plant would play out. And again, plants style will give the much smaller flat footed canelo s real problem. Canelo doesn't dominate anyone who's a legit champion, and plant is a legit champion.
        Nobody's moving goalposts. Plant is a bum and an inferior fighter. Plus he's a white American.

        Who's Plant's biggest win? He's scared to fight Benavidez and pussed out at the thought of taking a Canelo fight.

        He has no KO power, so winning by that is out of the question, he's really not that good of a boxer, there's nothing special about him. He's all hype, some whiteboy pretending he's black with a belt. He's easily the weakest at 168.

          Ok so his brother had the other belt. He was never going to fight his brother. He basically had all the belts.

          Point is, they never got the credit for cleaning out a weak HW division. But when Crawford does it, everyone wants to have a circle jerk. Crawford has a career of fighting bums and unifying a weak division.

          Who's his best win and when was it?

              nah, the easiest at 168 is the other white boy saunders. The guy Canelo picked ....which is what Canelo does more often than not. He picks the weakest most compromised champion in the division.

                The heavyweight division was weak yet Wladimir Klitschko never unified it. That's why the doesn't get credit for it.

                He never cleaned it out all the way like Crawford did.

                  If his brother didn't have the other belt, he would've unified it during his prime.

                  Who's Crawford's biggest win and how long ago was it?

                    If if if.

                    The fact is Klitschko didn't ever do it, period. So he doesn't get credit for doing it.

                    Crawford's resume isn't the greatest, I've said so myself in other threads. But he won all the belts in a weight division and you can't take that away from him.

                      Is that why he fought Golovkin and Jacobs the #1,#2 MW at the time? FOH.
