    although it can probably change IF Canelo grows some balls and fight and beats Trout.. or Lara.

    which i don't think he can.

    Aside from Vazquez, I don't know how anyone could make a case for Canelo.

    Both have relative weak resume's but their upswing is huge.

    DeMarco being the best win of the bunch.
    (PDL fight was not impressive at all)

    Both are young untested fighters. One has aced all his tests though. Canelo has never arguably been beaten like Broner was by PDL.

    Their resumes are both lacking but that is because they are young. 22 Canelo and Broner 23.

    Why did so many people pick Broner. Please make a case other than because he is a brotha.

    Because there are no worth while wins on Canelo's resume? DeMarco win is better than anything he's done at this point.

    Really? How is that? What are some notable wins in DeMarcos resume? He has lost or looked avg any time he stepped up man. I know there is 1 or 2 fights that I actually scored against him before.

    Both are unproven.De Marco is basically the Rhodes in Canelos resume.

    Broner decimated the highest rated fighter(at the time) in his division.

    Canelo has not even got in the ring with any of the highly rated lmw's. Not a single one.

    No contest at all here.

    Broner moved up an took the title from a legit fighter in demarco, regardless of how big people say broner is he hopped up an took it. Canelo is busy pulling up welterweight an beating on shot to pieces fighter. Nt because hes a "brotha". fighting matthew hatton in a title fight. lol
