    Canelo’s best performance was losing 8 rounds and stealing a draw against a past prime fighter?

    Now imagine he had a significant weight advantage too and he was jacked full of PEDs. It's a one or two round job for him.

    But a heavily juiced Clenelo DID lose to a way past prime lighter GGG. He rag-dolled his ass in the first fight and administered a boxing lesson to him in the rematch and had Clenelo's trusty judges not been there to bail out him out both times he would be 0-3 against Eurasian heat.[/QUOTE]
    Serge was 100% correct

    Losing 11-1 is not a tough fight. Bivol looked like he could have done another 12 rounds Canelo was blowing after 4-5 rounds....
    Nobody in their right mind (apart from you) would give Canelo the first four rounds.
    Complete nonsense and take your meds son.

    "Nobody in their right mind"? Besides all 3 judges, and about 50% of fans in the fan poll. You need meds, not me, space boy.

    Bivol was arguably the most difficult fight possible for Canelo, and he fought him in his weight class. You obviously don't have any clue what a cherry pick is. Now stop embarrassing yourself CJ, you're looking real stupid now.

    Appeal to authority fallacy and a tiny poll taken from a Canelo nuthugger group......yikes.
    If I do the same but with more credible source then over 90% on the RBR thought it was a complete schooling and to most a shutout.
    Yeah take your meds yer mental case.

    The RBR was very split on rounds 1-4. The fan poll "taken from a Canelo nuthugger group"? If that poll had those rounds as Bivol landslides you've be citing it yourself. And it wasn't a tiny poll, it's not hard to see how well Canelo did in those rounds. You just refuse to look at anything objectively. It was not 11-1 Bivol or anything close to that. Most media split those early rounds and had it something like 116-112 or 117-111 which is very reasonable. If you have a problem with giving each of the first 4 rounds to Canelo, I can understand that, Bivol was landing in those rounds and throwing more punches but the scoring criteria favored Canelo in those rounds. Clean effective punching, ring generalship, effective aggression, defense. I don't think you understand the scoring criteria because if you did, you'd know that they favored Canelo in those rounds. It's really as simple as that, if you want to continue to live in ignorance about what happened in those rounds, that's your issue. If you want to learn how rounds are scored in professional prizefighting, I'm happy to school you on it.

    There is no realm in reality where you could possibly school me you deluded cretin.
    I don't care what a group of knob gobblers think...I have a pair of eyes and can assess information and analyse it. It's the skill I get paid to apply every day in my well paid job.
    You couldn't school a 5yr old you imbecile.

    You're having one of your "ego moments" again. I'm trying to help you come to your senses. You acting oblivious to how the first 4 rounds were scored to Canelo is what I'm trying to help you with, by explaining to you why, by applying the scoring crtieria to those rounds. You don't like being taken to school like I constantly do with you, and now you're getting all butthurt about it. If you have a pair of eyes, then use them. Did you see Bivol backed into the ropes covering up in Round 1? That's called effective aggression. We went throught that round after you tried to lecture me on how shoulder shots couldn't be scored, and you made a complete fool out of yourself. My advice to you is to use that pair of eyes you have and apply the professional boxing judging guidelines and scoring criteria to them. Remember, the PROFESSIONAL BOXING guidelines, not the amateur ones, I know how much you struggle wtih the whole amateur / professional paradigm.:lol:

    The logic that this nuthugger uses is so dumb. So basically the first four rounds were close....so if someone scored every single close round in the fight to Canelo....he would have only lost by a couple rounds? Wtf lol by that logic we could score all four rounds to Bivol for an overall score of 11 rounds to 1.
