    1. There was something extremely suspect about Canelo vs Kovalev
    2. Canelo jumped to 175 roided to the gills and straight back down.
    3. 175/154 《 147/126
    4. Pacquiao went up and kept fighting all the best fighters in those divisions using speed and skill rather than brute roid chin.

    He can just win at cruiser with Usyk only robbing like with Golovkin.

    Canelo will not fight vs Dorticos or even Mike Perez, not alone vs Usyk.
    Yeah, he might beat Makabu if 190 lbs weight in limit.
    Usyk or A.J, they will annihilate Makabu without any clauses and with 0 weight ins limit.

    Who he had beat in 175 lbs division?
    Shot Kovalev who never had fought nor vs Gvozdyk nor vs Beterbiev prime version in 175 lbs.
    Beterbiev had fights vs Usyk in ams, interestingly, why he didn't had competed as CW boxer (200 lbs limit ) in pros?
    Was prime Bet so bad? Then why Ward didn't had fought vs prime Beterbiev but retired, being 32/33 y.o?
    BTW Ward had boxed vs prime Kovalev and vs vodka Kovalev.

    To add to this, most of the fighters mentioned had to do this with same day weigh ins.

    Jesus Wept...

    Just when I thought I was getting out. they pull me back in....

    The fight would never happen.

    If in some madness it was to occur Canelo's midget dimensions would become apparant and he would get battered by Usyk.

    If then when hell is on and the demons walk among us and Canelo beats Usyk on his 200 attempt.

    He still wouldn't be GOAT. You might be in a better position to debate it but there are too many fighers with a greater body of work who weren't PED cheats or required dodgy judges to eek out results.

    So Moonlight / Mighty / Bellend or whatever your name is Canelo would and could never be GOAT as like Floyd his career is smoke and mirrors and therefore has an asterix next to his name.

    If it was at HW after beating Makabu he'd have my GOAT vote for sure.

    Lost clearly to GGG once possibly twice.
    Drugs cheat.
    On paper yes could be in the conversation but lots of suspect goings on in his career.
    Couldn't stop Matthew Hatton but can now bingo Leight Heavys with one shot - hmmm

    Not sure about that. How much did he make against Joshua? And besides Fury who else can pay him Canelo money?

    Why Usyk at CW? You realize he's a HW titlist?
