    Canelo clearly beat GGG in the rematch and will go down as the greater and more accomplished fighter of the two.

    The vast majority in the boxing world disagree with you if you care to check.

    If you're talking about those in the know like boxers, trainers, etc then you're wrong. Most of them had Canelo winning the rematch.

    I just watched the GGG vs Canelo rematch again and if you look at it either the mindset that GGG has always been a boxer rather than the preconceived notion that has to walk you down then it’s an even clearer win for GGG. Actually quite impressive how he circled around pivoting and using his jab.

    Canelo obviously. I dont like either fighter but canelo changes his style and doesnt have to fall back on his power and has better comp

    Canelo got outboxed by Mayweather, Trout, and Lara — guys GGG would kill.

    And GGG outboxed Canelo. TWICE.

    GGG is the superior boxer. Canelo's success came from roids and GGG's age.

    GGG definitely won the first fight. That was clearly a very favourable decision by the judges.
    The second fight I leant towards GGG again, but it was much closer and 50/50. NO way GGG get's that decision. From the judges

    no these were part of 3G's eurobum phase, but when he won a world title things changed.

    its beyond debate, he took 3Gs career best scalp in his first defence, and has 1 hofer and 1 elite to 3gs zero in both categories.
