Usually his cherry pick is done properly. Maybe they think Beterbiev now is enough old. Maybe some problems to book Plant for cheap money? Canelo does have good history with proper matchmaking: after he defeated Cotto, they had allowed him to defend his MW titles: The Ring and WBC titles against blown up for this fight welterweight boxer in Khan.
Drug cheat Cherry picker Catchweights Waiting till fighters get old to fight them Corrupt judging in his favor He's a walking symbol of everything that is wrong with the sport.
Everybody has pretty much pointed out the reasons why Canelo is hated. I find it sad because he really has developed into a fantastic fighter and he's a pleasure to watch for his all round skills - if only one can forget the rest of the BS. At least his fight with Saunders was on the level and he's gotten rid of Oscar de la Spoona. Maybe the future is bright.
This would be the best scenario. It deserves to be brutal for Canelo tainting this circus show of a sport. However I have no doubt Canelo will secure the conditions needed to win the fight because he can never fight on a level playing field
Because he beat GGG. GGG fans world was wrecked by Canelo and they're still bitter about it. Anyone who isn't a raging GGG fanboy sees Canelo for what he is - the best thing to happen to the sport, the biggest draw and the fighter of this generation.
Boxing fans are just haters in general... Anybody who has success draws the ire of at least one set of fans. This is true of any sport, but it seems exaggerated in boxing perhaps due to the weird tribal/ethnic angle we've got going on. Truly some weirdo **** (none more weird than the "pacroid"/"roid mayweather" ****ery that prevails on other forums). Fighting Beterbiev would be a G move from Canelo and actually BEATING him would be legendary. The man is a monster.
You know what I said is true, and the whole premise of attacking Canelo is a means to defend GGG. By attempting to discredit Canelo, it's a way for GGG fans to rationalize what happened when they fought.
not all, but yes, some just cant work themselves past that. its not hard to see which ones, and im sure they have no idea how easily identifiable they are.
