    No. They're both modern fighters, rendering whatever they do fairly meaningless.

    An old GGG who wasn't actually beat is better than Valdes, Briscoe and Griffith?
    Who's GGG beat to be considered better than them?

    LOL, fun thread, I appreciate the insults :lol:

    But:

    1) Canelo lost both fights
    2) If he'd won you could make the case that beating GGG is arguably as good as anything on Monzon's resume. We're talking about a guy that has equalled the record for the most consecutive defences at middleweight, and possesses the highest (or close to it) KO % in MW championship history. It's not an outlandish claim.
