GGG battering Brook proved that he could beat a late replacement surprise boxer with red trunks. Let's not underestimate it.
It doesn't help his ATG ranking even one iota. This is as meaningless as his match against Avni Yildirim.
Canelo is an ATG PED user. This is a guy who couldn't put a dent in Cotto, yet walked down and beat up Callum Smith, who ate power shots from Groves and basically hasn't been hurt by any other fighter except the ex-welter. He also basically one-punched Kovalev, who though compromised, had still taken many a shot on the chin from LHWs and also took some hits from Pulev at cruiser.
If Canelo stops a career 154lb in their 1st campaign at 168? It does nothing. If Jermelle goes on to dominate 168 afterward, sure, but its not likely as hes already talking about Bud at 154
Canelo already looked juiced to high heavens when he beat Cotto and Kirkland. He looked like a glowing red Hulk. It had everything to do with Cottos performance which given his age and size was absolutely tremendous. Cotto only got hurt by speedy fighters anyway. Randall Bailey didnt put a dent in him either. Hes beating up these bigger guys because hes too sharp and hits them clean. Duran couldnt hurt benitez but busted up Moore and Barkley.
It's a tricky one that to be honest because charlo has no Legacy at super middle.. he's fought two divisions below yet he's clearly bigger than Canelo.. odd fight this.. if Canelo beats charlo what does it really matter? I think if it goes the other way around it will be a bigger deal.. I'm not much of a fan of the charlo brothers I think they are massive weight grifters but it will be some statement if he beats Super Middleweight Canelo
Floyd washing JMM after a 2 year hiatus is rated a high quality win that only pales in comparison to him at 36 washing Yung Nelo. Both were impressive AF feats. That help cement his legacy.
To be fair Jermell Charlo sca much better fighter than Agni Yildirim and he is a reigning undisputed world champion for a reason. If Canelo is not at his very best he will lose tonight.
