Why are Rigo and GGG(GOLOVKIN) highly regarded by posters yet Canelo is criticized?

Both have around the same number of fights and have about as good a resume as Rigondeaux has now.

rigo is a talented fighter but he has not done jack ****t in boxing.. I saw he fight Marroquin and I wasnt impressed, Donaire will brutally knock him out, but I doubt it because Rigo will run for most of the fight.. GGG is fighting Rosado who was KO by Angulo at 154.. So basically he is fighting a blown up 154 fighter??WTF At least Canelo is trying to fight the best but without luck. If Canelo fights and beast Trout what will the haters say then? OH he needs to fight Mayweather, Martinez, and Ward to get my respect..GTFOH

Rigo and GGG have just recently started receiving hype. The fuel? it's because while they hold a position of power by having a WBA title, the guys above them still find a way to ignore them (Golovkin more-so). I agree with Gambler on how they have a shorter "shelf life", and therefore their contemporaries are going to pretend likey they aren't worth anything. To make matters worse, all the up-and-comers are aiming for THE guy (Martinez and Donaire), so very few guys are even contemplating of fighting GGG/Rigo. I remember a poster said that the reason everyone wants to fight Canelo is because they know he's overhyped, and it's vice versa for GGG/Rigo. Everyone wants to get at Canelo first because they see not only a better pay-day than other fighters could provide, but they see vulnerability and oppportunity. Beating Canelo at this stage means that you snatched all of the (undeserved) hype that he has behind him. As GGG/Rigo increase in popularity/marketability, fighters will be a bit more eager to line up and fight them.
