Canelo: Why he doesn't get credit

[Divine Hammer]

lmao GGG stans all rustled when Canelo just dominated the ring 168 pound champion.


GGG 154-168 tho. Whoops who was it that won ring at all 3 of those divisions? GGG's daddy Canelo.


GGG fans have to jump on google whenever GGG announces an opponent.

GGG fans cant even remember that polish sausage factory shift supervisor's name without googling it.

the fake ring champ. anyone with a brain knows ryder pwned him hahahahahahHahahaha

I don’t understand GGG diehards. They are the worst. They use boxers to hype their fantasy ego I guess. They claim a second fight could’ve gone either way... lol. Yeah I wonder which fighter they’d pick then. Therefor, if they acknowledge that Canelo walked GGg down and “could’ve had a win,” why do they criticize Canelo fighting anybody above 160?! Lol. That makes no fooking sense.

Canelo has had many things happening to his career. Not everything is good.

1. Getting gift decision against GGG 1.
2. Creating his own 155 division.
3. Vacating a Mw belt to avoid a 34 years old GGG.

I've listed many of these facts here https://www.boxingscene.com/forums/s...d.php?t=838077

The whole 155 Canelo weight thing was always strange to me, when you know... 154... is a weight class.

As much as I can't stand Canelo and always root against him(he is great at match making), you have to give him his props

1) Fought Erislandy Lara whom stylistically was a bad matchup for him and narrowly won
2) Fought evenly with GGG who was slightly past his prime but still a good showing
3) Defeated Danny Jacobs who was still in his prime
4) KO'd Kovalev who while was past it, was probably the 3rd best LHW at the time
5) Defeated the man at 168 despite Ryder showing the Blueprint

Canelo def the top guy right now based on his resume even if he should've lost both GGG fights(the 2nd one could go either way).

Lastly, to all the guys who want to see Canelo lose....he will down the line eventually. No one stays at the top forever if they're willing to fight the best

I just have a problem calling someone the top dog, while there is a guy that is in your best division, who has beat you twice, or at worst gone 1-1 with you asking for a 3rd fight.

I give Canelo huge props for taking the Lara fight. Canelo use to fight everyone. He took fights that were bad matchups for him stylistically, he took the hard fights, he didn't look for the easy way.

Can't really say that about him anymore.

Hes just turned into a frustrating fighter like Floyd was, where you know he could be taking more fan friendly fights, or meaningful fights, but hes just avoiding the fights everyone wants to see, until they guys look bad.

hes a world level fighter whos been made to look p4p level by great matchmaking. a lot of the fighters hes fought have been well past their best and turned up to pick up one last big pay cheque

Yeah, it was a problem when Canelo was presented as a light middle champ but did not defend in the light middle division.

ggg beat canelo twice. that's real facts. and it wasn't until ggg looked human against jacobs that canelo finally decided to fight him after avoiding him for years hahahahaha shows how much of a cherry picking coward your hero is.

Quite true.

I didn't even watch the GGG fight and until he fights legit fighters again I won't. This has nothing to do with him.

In fact, if you review my posts you'll find I gave Canelo credit but someone posed a question, why are there so many unwilling to do so. I posted some reasons for the arguments that would be presented.

1) Fought Erislandy Lara whom stylistically was a bad matchup for him and narrowly won - No one has taken any credit away from Canelo, point is he arguably lost that fight but the win, along with lopsided cards against Trout and even that 1 card against Floyd fuels the arguments judges are paid off by him or his team
2) Fought evenly with GGG who was slightly past his prime but still a good showing - Good showing yes, but arguably lost or went 1-1 and yet has done his best to not get a 3rd fight, which shoud have happened about 2 years ago
3) Defeated Danny Jacobs who was still in his prime - Sure but Jacobs is an ok fighter at best
4) KO'd Kovalev who while was past it, was probably the 3rd best LHW at the time - This one can not be a positive, Kovalev wasnt even fit to compete
5) Defeated the man at 168 despite Ryder showing the Blueprint - Fairplay but Canelo doesnt make it without an asterix on fight announcement, timing etc

My responses above

Boxing fans are so weird and goofy

I like Canelo and GGG

I like Floyd and Pac

Why is it you can't be a fan of two fighters who have a rivalry ?

Boxing twitter is great for the lols though

[501_Boy]

Lol...I feel really bad for boxing fans who aren’t able to enjoy the greatness of Canelo.

[FinitoxDinamita]

As a boxing junkie, I just want to be entertained and Canelo doesnt to it for me. There are asterisks next to some of his wins but more importantly, he doesn’t always close the show. He has something missing that separates him from the Mexican greats of the past.

Every great fighter has that signature victory and I cant think of one for Canelo. That weak ass rematch victory over GG aint gonna cut it. That sht dont catapult anybody into greatness level.
