    Nunn lost to Lyles and Little and barely beat Victor Cordoba ... these guys are not exactly ATGs. Even if we look at Toney's record at 160 / 168, it's not better than Canelo's. I'd accept that Nunn would be a stiff challenge for Canelo, but the reverse is also true.

    Nunn beat Tate, Roldan, Barkley, Kalambay, Starling, Curry, Canelo beat Jacobs and the great Chavez jr ? Lololol Chavez lol. He looked great against Jacobs tho, winning 7-5 or 8-4

    Canelos win over GGG is too controversial for it to even be in the argument in favor of Canelo beating Nunn h2h at 160. 168 he wins tho Nunn was well past it

    What a joke it is that you’re still of the belief that he just gassed out against Toney.

    The question was 160.

    If we're going to pretend that Canelo's pitstop at 160 against GGGx2, Jacobs, and Cotto somehow proves that he couldn't knock guys out there. It's only fair that I point out that he highlight reel ko'd Kirkland in a fight that was contested at the weight.

    You don’t have to point anything out.

    I know who he fought and when.

    I’m just wondering why BCS8 is trying to deflect, instead of answering two very simple posts.

    No because supposedly Canelo has this amazing power at MIDDLEWEIGHT yet nobody can name any top middleweight fighters Canelo stopped.
    With Nunn I could list a bunch of top middle weights he stopped.

    The thread needs a poll, like all H2H threads.

    You're probably one of those guys who says Mayweather was great ar 135 and 147, but not 140. A dying breed of pedant.
