    If you mean US and Mexico public, then maybe he is your God Brand.

    In europe looks that A.J is more popular and ppl who I know still more are talking about Holyfield than about Wilder.

    Ofc brands like Pacman, Floyd Jr are well known worldwide.

    Based on how much you talk about Canelo i'll stand by my point.

    Me likes to bait Clenelo fans a bit. Because he had cherry picked opponents : Khan for MW title defense fight, shot Kovalev, Mosley ( 38 y.o coming out with 0-2-1 record in his last 3 fights ) and his fans are happy.
    Clenelo for reason is called as Clenelo.

    Kahn cherry picked Barrera.
    Kovalev was one of the best Lt Heavies when Canelo fought him.
    Canelo was 21 when he faced Mosely. A young lion fighting a past his prime legend is part of boxing.

    Do you have anything else?

    He was very experienced then, Canelo before this fight had 39-0-1 professional boxing record.
    Canelo was very experienced then, more than today in this day are Lopez and Okolie together taken.
    Canelo before this fight with over the hill Mosley had fought with boxers who had such records:
    33-4-1
    23-4-2
    45-4-0
    41-4-2
    48-11-2
    45-12-6
    26-1-0
    31-1-1
    19-2-0
    17-0-1
    21-2-0
    15-2-2
    16-1-0
    12-1-0
    17-0-1
    21-2-0
    21-1-0
    18-4-1
    19-3-3
    23-2-0
    etc and etc.
    Btw I don't agree with narrative that Canelo had fought only with bums in Mexico, I think exactly in Mexico was time and place where he fought every one they gave to him to fight with.

    In Vegas he turned into suspicious boxer.

    so why you guys take things so personal, just look at you, the same ones too. tantrums left and right when someone offers an opinion that dont make ggg look like sir lance a lot and canelo like the evil king. its like watching kids argue. and then the things said about the posters who hurt their feelings, while ignoring all the waffle they themselves post, is simply hilarious beyond words, lol.

    Cause he can still make millions of dollars per fight and no longer cares about the legacy that, quite frankly, was stolen from him by bribed cowards who have never laced them up.
