    It's a long list, are you sure you want to know who all had Canelo winning lol. Andre Ward Errol Spence and one of the Charlo brothers "cornered" Stephen A Smith after the fight and told him why Canelo won.

    Canelo & Mayweather are two of a kind . Both are afraid to fight anywhere but Vegas where they know they will always get the decision No matter what. . I'm so glad I;'m no longer active in the game Id be to embaraased at what6 has happened to the sport. I would never advise any youngster about taking up pro boxing today. People wonder why the re are no good young heavyweights. Its obvious theyre all playing football,basketmall or baseball

    That's not fair to say that. Floyd refused to fight Canelo in a rematch, and after Floyd, Cotto was the biggest fight available to Canelo. The catchweight was demanded by Cotto not Canelo. Cotto had demanded catchweights to every fighter he fought at MW before Canelo.

    That had zero to do with Canelo, Canelo fought on Cotto's terms and won the title. Cotto didn't even pay the sanctioning fees for the Canelo fight, so if anyone deserves criticism there it was Cotto.

    Yes & Canelo did exactly the same thing would only fight at 155 max. Till it came to the debacle Oscar touted as The Championship of Mexico against the punch bag Chavez jr that was at 164. How can you support a diva like him & call yourself a boxing fan ????

    It wasn't even close to exactly the same thing as Cotto did. Cotto drained actual full fledged Middleweights like Martinez and Geale down to a catchweight which made them unhealthy. Canelo only defended that title once, to Khan who was a welterweight coming up in weight who demanded it be at 155 max. That's completely different than what Cotto did who drained actual MWs and was a weight bully. Canelo was never a weight bully, when he fought at catchweights (i.e. Floyd, Cotto, Khan) it was only because his opponents demanded it.

    Did Floyd OR Ward ever fight a top fighter overseas on their home turf?? Just curious. I don’t think they did.


    Gotta love real fighters like GGG, Usyk, Loma, Kovalev etc.

    Basically 80% feel GGG defended his belts with either a victory (Most feel he won) or draw.

    GGG is the REAL title defense record holder.

    He connected on a lot of jabs but they didn't deter Canelo one bit.

    Any way you slice it was an unsuccessful title defense for GGG. He not only got beat, but he got beat at his own game!

    By a plodding potshotter? No. Canelo came forward.....so what? So did Alfredo Evangelista in his title fights. Boxing is about landing punches...and not a ****ing thing else. I have barely followed GGG's career....I have no bias. But I know a boxing lesson when I see one, and that's exactly what the redhead got.

    Didnt deter him from what getting outboxed
    Just because they didnt "deter" Canelo from his game plan that doesnt mean they didn't count or werent hurtful.
