    All except Andrade and Spence.

    Spence is too small.

    Andrade who? He's a nobody. That would be a cherrypick for Canelo. He brings nothing new to the table. 160 title that he earned vs no one. No names on his resume. Canelo beating him will just have fans saying the obvious, that he lost the first time he stepped up to an elite and he was overhyped. They will destroy his resume, dissect it for the garbage it has in it. Rightfully so. But I just wish fans were less hindsight biased and call things like it is before they happen. Andrade is trash, got knocked down in his only semi-high profile fight in 2013, barely won. That was a long time ago. Hasn't fought anyone worth sh.t since then. Pulled out of Charlo fight in 2014.

    I'd replace Spence and Andrade for Bivol and Beterbiev.

        I'd give him props for everyone except Spence right now. If Spence goes up and looks impressive then I'd give Canelo credit, but he needs a fight or so at the weight first

          Honestly...it is never ending just like it was for Mayweather! They beat one guy and the Idiot Fans and Media Jackasses who hate them will build up the next guy.

          Now the Beterbiev Bandwagon is filling up quickly so it is just never ending that comes with the Territory when you're the Big Draw

              I voted for everyone except the following:

              GGG - age and they've already been in the ring together twice.

              Spence - too small.

                What is wrong with you, ypur a millennial right.
                I do want to see #1 vs #2. Spence vs Pacquiao. I also want to see Porter, Thurman and Danny Garcia vs Crawford. Then if Crawford proves he's a top welterweight by beating one of them I might want to see him vs Spence.

                  Gotta say I'm impressed that this site has Andrade currently leading in the votes. I'm shocked but impressed nonetheless.

                    It probably does come with the territory.

                      I'd give him respect for beating any of them apart from Spence (awesome fighter but weight classes for a reason).

                      Any of them would be decent wins but none would be great.

                      I'd give him more credit for beating Jermall Charlo than any of the others - Combination of his skillset, style, resume and momentum.
                      They're all certainly good but more of them are more they pass the eye-test than anything else.
