    Now I don't consider Wilder to be a fraud , but it wasn't long ago when he was seen as the biggest Jester in the sport of boxing.

    Has Canelo surpassed him? i would say Yes

    They're not even in the same league. Canelo is what, 24? And he has fought a lot of good boxers. Included what the thread starter calls "tbe".

    Wilder on the other hand has only faced one opponent in the top 20 so far.

    Canelo doesn't even acknowledge he has a mandatory :patsch

    Why are they frauds? And what do you mean by fraud? Nobody is claiming Canelo is the best middleweight or the best at anything. Only thing fraudulent about him is Showtime hyping up his power. Wilder, is it because they call him "world champion"? Nobody is considering him the best heavyweight but they also overrate his power.

    So when you say "fraud", do you mean which one is a bum? Which one is most deceitful?

    So defending the middleweight title against dragged up welters is not fraudulent? OK.

    "OK"?

    Fraudulent is not the word I would use to describe Khan vs Canelo @ 155 for the title. Here's the definition for reference:
    So, no, I wouldn't call that fight fraudulent. I'd call it cherry-picking, a money fight, milking the title, etc. And I won't call Canelo a ducker yet because Golovkin agreed to this garbage so he's nearly as guilty.

    He acknowledges, because Golovkin allowed it; this doesn't excuse Canelo at all though.

    Well, one thing about Canelo is that he actually has a good resume at 154. No one can take that away from him.

    Yep, that suits Alvarez. He claims to be a middleweight champion while ducking actual middleweights, his mandatory. Takes on smaller welters instead.
