    So far Canelo has beaten 2 elites, though one was desperately close, 3G. 3G himself has never beaten elite yet.

    How many elites will clenelo beat in total?

    2 elites. GGG is currently the only elite available and there are no more elites in sight in the near future.

    Most people think he lost to GGG both times. Just because he got a house decision while doing less then the defending champion it doesn't mean he won.

    2. Golovkin (I thought Canelo lost),
    and Cotto (Cotto was at the end of his career so asterisk)

    Lara and Trout, while I thought Canelo lost, they weren't considered elites
    (Lara was always fringe potential elite) anyway so it's a moot point.

    There are no other elites (yet). There are some guys
    that may build up to eventually be considered elites, but
    they ain't there yet.

    being an honest fan is far more respectful to the boxer than being a BS fan telling lies about them, do you agree?

    why not just go for total accuracy and write as much as G and VF gets pwned in replies from Herol.

    Hard to say. Depends on how highly you class Golovkin, Cotto and Lara already and then the possibility of Saunders, Jacobs and Charlo going forward. Maybes Hurd if he moves up.

    So far he possibly has three though 90+ percent felt he lost to Golovkin and a higher percentage thought he lost to Lara than he won.

    The likelihood is he can beat Saunders, Jacobs and Charlo because his chin is granite and they can't win on points.

    I guess the better question is how many elites can Canelo beat clearly?

    Canelo hasn't LEGITIMALY anyone
    Floyd clowned him
    GGG beat him TWICE but got screwed
    Bpth Lara & Trout REALLY beat him
    As we all know Fighting in Vegas Canelo will never be allowed to lose a decision . Just like his cash cow predecessor Floyd

    Trout has one big win his entire career. He's more a 2010's version of Oba Carr. Talented but just falling short.
