His Resume at 30 years old is Goated.

Compare it to his peers , the Names of who he’s fought compared to all his peers is crazy. Dude really has fought any and every one. You can round up the Top 5 from 160-175 , and collectively, he would still probably have a better resume.

The only marks on his career, is the tainted beef fiasco and the questionable first GGG fight decision. Still the best of his era and in the discussion of the best Mexican fighters ever imo.

But at this rate he's definitely going down as ONE of the goats. It's already written in stone. Don't matter how much these neck beard 50 year old virgins cry about it. When all the legends of the past call you a legend, you a legend :yeshrug:.......not a current fighter in the game even comes close. Canelo is LeBron James among a sea of John walls and demar derozans.

And the questionable Trout win..facing old mosley...faded smaller Cotto...losing both GGG fights...now he doesn't to fight Mexicans...lol


RG you can’t tear down somebody’s opponents like that Floyd himself says he never shyts on his opponents cause people would start to look closer into his career just give him credit and get him on other things like steroids or a close GGG fight we can all pick one small things about a opponent to diminish them respect the names regardless of other old slow or what not cause they signed up to step in the ring with canelo or any other fighter

I gave Canelo ton of credit..great improvement..great boxer...highest draw in boxing..the A side in the game today but he still faced a goofball who quit 3 rounds in last week...sad. pitiful. He also faces motherfukkers on shaky circumstances..has very questionable judge scores...he has beat no one elite in dominant fashion....this isn't going anywhere. Floyd don't matter when discussing this kid.

He didn't beat GGG in the first fight...everyone here knows that . Lying they ass off.

Okay I see your points now imma say a win is a win to be considered goat yea you need to dominate the elites in your era in a dominant fashion you can say shaky circumstances but those fighters signed the papers to fight they can say no. I also thought GGG won that first fight there is that.

Nah..a win isn't a win. In a true close fight, run it again. Floyd did for the Castillo and Maidana fights to make things right. It's criminal in some of these Canelo decisions...114-114 for Floyd? Come on...this guy is involved in corrupt nonsense compared to other real elites. Roy Jones HUMILATED undefeated p4p #1 James Toney..made him miss over and over and over again. Got around Toney 's slick defense. Canelo hasn't faced anyone keeps the body attack for 12 rounds..he has stamina issues. I think if he faces Benavidez..he gets knocked out.

okay who do you think canelo should fight again based on what you said about scores? I know it’s late and he’s really moved on from 147 but which ones in your opinion? I think he beats benavidez I think kills his body it’s a awkward matchup but canelo would definitely use more speed and bounce around idk I see him now stand in the middle with some of these other fighters walk Sergey smith down benavidez goes forward I haven’t seen canelo on his back foot in a while I think that would be a good fight be would answer some questions especially in that weight class

Lara...

Canelo can't back up Benavidez...not gonna happen. He gets touched up trying his offense.

Yea I’ll definitely give you Lara. That’s why it would be interesting but the key word is IF canelo fights I know benavidez would take that fight in a heart beat and I didn’t forget what you said about shaky circumstances I expect some type of weight clause or something in that contract :troll:

I don't think Benavidez accepts unless it's a real fight with a proper training camp and no weight stipulations.

demar is having a good season.
