    I'm not even going to respond because we both know Canelo was not drained.

    In terms of how good the version of Canelo they beat was: GGG beat the best version, then Bivol, then Floyd, Crawford beat the worst.

    In terms of how good their performances were, Floyd was the best (was a complete shut out), then Bivol, then GGG #1, then Crawford and GGG #2 are about equal.

    Also:

    - Get Lara off that list. Canelo won comfortably. Shouldn’t even be a discussion.

    - Crawford jumping up two weights was irrelevant to his win because he’s still bigger than Canelo. Mayweather was at more of a weight disadvantage than Crawford was.

    The first Golovkin fight was a clear 9-3 and it came at Canelo's peak.

    Yep, Golovkin is the only man to defeat Canelo twice!

    The best legitimate win over Canelo was Crawford's.

    But GGG had claims for perhaps an even better win.

    The 152 catch weight was a dirty tactic.

    No it wasnt pbf was faded and canelo wasnt and he was the bigger man who weighed only 1 pound less than he did in his previous fight. Canelo was fine just outclassed
