Of course he says that What did you expect "I'm number 4 on my pound for pound list" Listen to Floyd talk about why he says he's tbe. All fighters have an ego if you don't say your the best then you aren't cut out for the high level
I have to wonder what Oscar is putting in this guy's water. :think Then again Charlie Zelenoff still thinks that he's better than Wilder so I suppose that makes two insane individuals associated with boxing.
The #1 P4P fighter in the world is the winner of Ward/Kovalev end of story. Props to both guys for making that fight.
Aww hell no. Canelo is not the best fighter in the world and he never will be. He is barely the best at 154. I will admit that he is the ATG, P4P no1, MLG at 155. No other fighter has dominated the 155 division as emphatically as Canelo.
Until Gennady stops him in 8, winning every round in the process. Then someone i know will come here claiming Canelo was never good to begin with, and that Gennady's still hasn't fought anybody on his resume and he remains overated.
Again that would mean GGG's best win is a guy moving up in weight. GGG is supposed to beat Canelo just like Brook, if the fight is at 160. That's what people expect. He won't be walking through Canelo's punches, though. That much is guaranteed. And he will not dominate Canelo either. He will have to earn that win. And given Canelo's favor with the judges, he might have to stop Canelo. A loss is a real possibility for GGG, unless he boxes flawlessly or gets a KO.
