Good read as always but I agree to disagree on:

"Maidana. He was considered a crude brawler. But he got on a hot streak and really gave an ATG Floyd Mayweather a rough night. You watch that 1st fight between Mayweather and Maidana. There was not much separation. Now watch the rematch and you see Maidana trying to box. Use more all around skills. He showed more boxing but he wasn't as effective as he was in the 1st fight."

That's because Floyd Bayless Jr. wouldn't let Maidana do anything and kept warning and taking points from Maidana.

I kind of disagree on

"I don’t think GGG resume is a weak or great. It’s somewhere in between. Let’s not forget he fought Canelo twice. Devrenchenko, Stevens, Lemeuix and Jacobs. That’s not a resume you call WEAK".

Canelo makes his resume 1000% better. But fighting just one guy is a WEAK resume.

Lemuix??? *** THAT!! \Dude got stopped by Macro Rubio.

Stevens??? Hell NO!!!

Devery??? B/B- fighter.

Jacobs was a good win but a lot of ppl felt Jacobs won. If Jacobs didn't get knocked down he wins that fight.

And 3 of his last 5 fights was...

2 year retired 154lb vanes who was 1-2 his last 3 fights before GGG.

This was a weird mailbag. The first question was all over the place and jumped from topic to topic, then the guy asking to compare boxers to actual killers/murderers, the guy asking to compare a boxing team to a basketball Olympic dream team, a ridiculous Ward vs Canelo mythical match question. What’s next , we’re gonna start getting Roy Jones vs Canelo mythical match questions as if it’s actually a debatable topic?

I think Maidana had 2 weaknesses, soft belly, and bad stamina! I always find it amazing how some fighters have extra tough beards, and can't take body shots! Floyd was sneaky good with that "******* Jab" to the belly! Took all Maidana's power away! Would have loved to see Maidana vs. JMM!

Bread having a hard time accepting Canelo would have beat TF out of feather fisted Ward. A couple fights more and you’ll see ppl actually suggesting Canelo vs RJJ and James Toney meaning Andre Ward would be easy for Canelo.

What really made me dislike GGG was a) comparing him to B-Hop! b) When he said he would only fight Ward @ 164, but he wouldn't mind fighting JCC Jr. @ 168! B1tch move!

Not a bad mailbag. I do wish though we would talk more about active fighters than long retired fighters.

Not saying history isn't important but is it really sane to have mailbags be 70 percent old school and only 30 percent curreent, active fighters?

I feel like it should be the other way around.

Typical contradicting all over the place mailbag.

The trying to justify Gatti being in the HOF while claiming better fighters don't deserve it is weak,& exactly what I'm used to from Bread who has to be the most biased butknowledgeable historian in boxing.

He says "I think Canelos a future hofer"oh really you think?& That hes APPROACHING atg if he wins like 2-3 more top fights, GTFO biased, you're the same guy who was waxing lyrical about Loma being an atg since before he even fought anyone at 135(let alone that I proved him & all loma fans fos(about atg claims) with my prediction that Teo would beat him,Teo who y'all said was green no hoper Loma would ko)(& I could've sworn he considers Bud an ATG?,& He also acts like "featherfisted" Ward is now almost unbeatable & an ATG despite Canelo already being higher atg,clearly)

Canelos cv is miles above the rest of his era after his career of fighting more top fighters than anyone including Floyd & Ward since 2010 on, & hes doing it in divisions where nobody especially careerlong detractors like Bread ever envisioned he could, divisions where he gives up every advantage possible despite being the cashcow & not needing to fight who hes fighting.

If Canelo is not already an ATG then boxing is already dead. Hes beating everyone near his divisions 1 by 1. Ward at his absolute best could barely beat Kov(arguably)& was kd by Krushers Vodka power,& Canelo kod unconscious a kov who had extra half day to rehydrate & who had a much better gameplan(& coach)than Wards opponent 2 yrs prior(If kov didn't get kod late all haters would be saying how great Ward was & that Kov was robbed by ginger,but since he was kod hes automatically "a old bum"). (The fact that bread is now again moving goalposts to 5'8 jmw Canelo vs 6' careerlong smw Ward(whom was viewed as way too big for Canelo to even fantasize about the matchup til now) shows how good Canelo is.

And just because Canelo kod Kov & not ggg doesn't mean ggg is not a baby mini Kov(he is) it just shows Canelos improved & carries power up.

Cue the haters claiming me saying what is common sense amounts to nutriding Canelo
