**Canelo now ranks amongst the very best MX of all time!!**

Casuals who just follow like lemmings really believe the **** calling him thje greatest mexican fighter LOL Heck the Mexican fans DIS OWNED him. He's only got the little 13 yr old girls swooning over him & trolls like you worshipping him. Most real boxing fans want to see him get his ass kicked

 

And he's also p4p #1 in the Ring ratings now.

This was my Top 10 Mexican list from a while back.

Ruben Olivares
Salvador Sanchez
Julio Cesar Chavez
Vicente Saldivar
Miguel Canto

Chucho Castillo
Carlos Zarate
Erik Morales
Marco Antonio Barrera
Baby Arizmendi

Canelo could break into the really low 10 (literally number 10), depending on your criteria, though I personally wouldn't. He is an extremely talented fighter, of course, but Mexico's Boxing history is extremely deep. Thinking about it, I'd probably put Morales and Barrera over Zarate now. I could also replace number 10 with a few fighters, as it was my weakest pick. Maybe Rafael Herrera or even Canelo himself, among others.

Top 5 are absolute locks and they will never change. The only thing that might change is the order.

 

The Ring ROFL Thats Oscars GBP rag Lost all credibility when fishnets took it over

 

He's P4P # 1 in my ratings for over a year now.

 

I could see it, but these Mexicans are very hard to rank. The only solids for me are the top 5.

 

On paper beating Kovalev was Great but I want to see Kovalev-GGG to see if Kovalev dived.

 

What's equally impressive is that Canelo has had success at higher weights.
Mexicans have typically dominated 147 and below.
This new era of Mexican HW champs and LtHvy champs is something new

 

can't deny he's at least invited himself in to the conversation.

 

I don't have Canelo on par with say Chavez, Sanchez, Lopez, and Marquez to name fighters of the last 40 years, but I do think he's right there with Morales and Barrera allready.
Don't think one is really going to get a sense if Canelo belongs in the mention with the top 5 Mexican fighters of all-time until he's at least at the latter end of his career.

 

1-Clenelo
2-Margarito
3-Salido
4-Luis Nery
5-Chavez Jr

 

I'm not gonna pick through it bit by bit, but I think you're being old timey with your list. Marquez and Morales each beat Pacquiao which is a better singular scalp than anyone in your top 5 can claim.

I have Marquez, Morales, and now Canelo in the top 5 with Chavez and Sanchez.

 

No. That's just unfair to the guys on the Ring panel.

 

No way a Ped's cheat can ever be considered in a REAL boxing fans top P4P. Also consider that without corruption in Vegas Ginger would have FIVE losses
