One thing to note is that canelo has a great chin and has been straight up bazooka hit. There may be slicker Mexican greats that didn’t possess that granite beard. So it’s hard to say because despite some of his very impressive head movement and waist bending, he’s taken some crazy hard punches. Some guys might not get ripped with those. But generally speaking to be considered great in the annals of Mexican boxing you have to be able to take a shot. A couple of slick Mexican champs that come to mind are Finito Lopez and believe it or not I’d rate Chavez up there with some slick head movement when he tried. Hard to say but canelo is definitely up there. Top 5 for sure.

He's up there. Salvador Sanchez was unreal in his day though. I haven't watched Miguel Canto but I will after reading this thread.
