Would you rate Canelo over Mayweather if he wins in November?

    Mayweather is certified top 30 pfp

    I doubt Canelo will make 75 by the time his career is said and done

    Not really Mayweather slapped Canelo around for 12 rounds. When did that happen to Mayweather lol

    I think after he took Golovkins punches it gave him confidence to fight someone like Kovalev and you have to give him credit this time for not making his opponent suffer with a catch weight.
    I think even if did have a loss to Golovkin on his record you will still call him a great fighter albeit not as great as Floyd.

    No. Mayweather is a 5 division champion and if Canelo wins he will be a 3 division champion, even though he claims that he is ready to become 4 division champion but how does his paper title at 168 count.

    You're right, Mayweather cheated a hell of a lot more.....

    I tell you what..if he does that...then proceeds to move up to heavyweight and beats Wilder, Fury, Ruiz and Joshua for good measure...then I'd rate him about on PAR with Mayweather..but not above him.

    Hell to the no. Mayweather is a one of a kind boxer. Canelo is a protected PED user.

    Agreed. I like both fighters but...Mayweather whipped Canelo convincingly. Canelo had no answers to the defensive wizardry of Floyd. None. It was not a close fight. Owned.

    This exactlly. The fight wasnt close. Canelo was completely out of his depth. He had no answer.

    Hard to rate fighter A above B when B completely outclassed A.

    There's no limit to what Canelo can achieve, he still has many years of fighting at the top level.

    I assume you don't consider Pacquiao an ATG then? Catchweights, draining fighters, winning titles below the limit, avoiding random testing, picking on past prime fighters.

    I'm sure you're very consistent.
