Alvarez is Not A Better Fighter Than Any Mexican Legend

He's not even a better fighter than Oscar Valdez.

 

Yes, maybe, but he's building his career and you are only mentioning people already retired with their full careers built.

Wait until canelo ends his career to open this post. You forget that canelo is 25. 25 yo, man, he's a kid, he has like 10 years more of boxing inside. Then, after he retires, we will be able to compare if you want to.

 

Because despite him not being as Talented as those legendery Mexicans you mentioned, he is one of the few fighters today who comes to fight, and will fight anyone, even at the age of 25.

He's not hiding at 160 without options. He can fight anyone from tough HIGH-RISK/LOW Reward-fights such as Lara and Trout, to Bangers like Angulo and Kirkland, to highly skilled proven fighters like Cotto, to gimme fights like Khan.

In the mean while 34 year old GGG is sucking his thumb WAITING for fighters to come to him while pretending not to hear other fighters are calling his ass out. :deal

 

He was being groomed into it though. He was promising when young but at an age where you'd expect to see a good amount of growth there's been little. But despite that his fan base has already been built. Personally I;m more interested in Ramirez. Having a Mexican champion at the upper weights is a rarity. Seems like it would garner more attention from fans.

 

When Ramirez and GGG have fighters like Lara, Trout, Cotto, Angulo, Kirkland under their belts consecutively, then we can start praising them, in the meanwhile we will pay money to watch a fighter who will fight anyone not one who pretends he doesn't know Lara has been calling him out.

 

Promising when young??????????? :nut

He's 25!!!!

 

I'd say watching a new champion with potential fight a step up in competition is more exciting than any fight with Lara in it. I also said nothing about praising him.

 

And in his prime with more experience than most fighters at 30. What point are you trying to make though?

 

Is canelo on his prime? you dont know, unless you are a foreteller, and I doubt it.

Anyway, not being better than chavez is no shame at all. You are unfair. You are taking the best of every one of them, and you are asking canelo for being better than them.

Just wait. 25 yo, you will have your oportunity to denigrate canelo after he retires, because probably he will not be better than chavez. Just wait, give him at least the oportunity to fail to be THE GREATEST MEXICAN BOXER IN HISTORY.

Just a thing, if being 25 yo people are comparing him with names like de la hoya, morales or chavez... he's doing really really well.

 

Golovkin knows how to get the fight with Canelo.

Canelo is waiting for the bum-killer to accept the terms.
