    Jake also had more than 100 fights. How many fights did Canelo have ?How many gifts did he get?

    Fight wouldn't happen at 160. Canelos team forces Jake to drain down to 154, take a 10 round distance plus Adelaide Byrd as the sole judge.

    Canelo wins a controversial split decision.

    did LaMotta every throw a fight? Perhaps one can wonder if anyone threw a fight against him as well? Let’s not make it sound like he was a paragon of virtue.

    Not as many as Jake
    WOODS
    LYTELL
    WILLIAMS
    YAROSZ
    VILLEMAIN
    ZIVIC

    Plus Jake had weight advantage in many of his fights.

    Exactly. If Canelo's team of mobsters make LaMotta drain down to 154 he'd be at a huge disadvantage compared to the fights you mention above when HE (Jake) had the weight advantage.

    No! lol The point is Lamotta has a long history of having a significant weight advantage in fights and he didn't win all of them either! Canelo is a novice at it compared to Jake!

    LOL I didn't get your point, but I do now. Dang, LaMotta was Canelo before Canelo was Canelo!

    Cerdan. Robinson.
    Now name me TWO middleweights that come close to those two. GGG? Please EVERYONE knows Canelo got a gift the first time.
    Canelo is a manufactured boxer that has received gifts because he sells tickets.
    Mayweather SPANKED him at jr.middle EASILY.
    Wasnt even close.
