    What you don't understand is that the owner of that Ring Magazine belt is Oscar De la Hoya. Not biased at all when you consider that Canelo's promoter is ODLH...

    That fishnet dummy is just protecting his interest. In fact, this is a joke.

    Right, he won it in a catch-weight against a fighter who won it in a catch-weight, Hagler must be proud.

    He loses the lineal championship if he doesn't fight a top-10 middleweight by November (a year since he beat Cotto) or something. Not sure. Does it really matter? We all know who the #1 guy is at 160.

    He does dominate both divisions in the sense that he is the biggest draw but in terms of skills and boxing superiority he doesn't.

    Kinda hard to beat a "man" who cowardly handed the title over because he was afraid to defend it against the MAN he knew would kick his cowardly a**
    I do not consider Pollo Canelo a man, A man has cojones Pollo obviously had none

    The ironic twist is that many of these ODLH haters were sopping up his every word when he was disrespecting Al Haymon and Floyd. They were on the GBP train hyping it up until they ****ed over GGG and now they hate Oscars guts.

    The Ring Magazine belt does NOT determine who is or who isn't the LINEAL champion..
