    Alvarez is an excellent fighter. I wish his wins in big fights were clearer without controversy

          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.
          Funny you mention that....old Floyd fans seem to all flock to Canelo now, even further parallels between the two.

          It does seem he really only fights when its opportune for him which is a shame(top dog based on resume only)

            No one doubts his skillset but like you say, almost all his "wins" have some sort of question mark next to them. The judges t his team have done him no favours.

              I will start respecting him, when he beats good fighter in his prime without any gift.
