Maybe he won't be an ATG (i think he can be), maybe some of his success is attributed to hype/promotion (who's isn't that that level?) but the kids level competition in the past 18 months is no joke and should be applauded. There's no need to lie about it to try and dismiss it.
And i wouldn't consider myself a Canelo fan, i'm just a fan of boxing and he is everything thats right with the sport. Wanting to fight the best.

Within the past 18 months the kid has fought Floyd Mayweather Jr. and beaten Lara who many said he wouldn't even fight. Also beat an undefeated Austin Trout who was coming off the back of whooping Cotto and a dangerous fighter in Angulo who gave Lara hell, Angulo isn't great but on his night he's a threat to most fighters.

He's good for his age for sure, but I find it very difficult to warm to him due to the gift scorecards he gets in many of his fights(He's got at least one gift scorecard in 3 of his last 4 fights). Also, calling him a future ATG is laughable. If he was he'd have dominated at least one world class opponent.

Right now canelo is looking like a golden boy protected hype job,, he lost to Lara, and probably had a draw with trout. His resume is nothing great. He comes in at 170 he can't make 154 easily but won't move up,, he is the great Mexican hype
The best fighters Jr. beat (Duddy, Zbik, Rubio, Lee, Vera) are leagues below Trout and Lara.
You know what the difference is between Canelo and Jr.? Canelo can friggin' fight and Jr. can't.
