    Let's make it more simple for some of you guys.

    Here it goes.

    The guys Canelo beat have better resumes than the guys Usyk beat.

    Can you guys understand that?

    Canelo's looks initially better, but I think Canelo has gotten some lucky decisions.

    Usyk has been clearly dominant throughout his career. Even though his early fights at HW weren't very impressive, it's clear he was just fighting in first gear.

    Please stop with Canelo was green when he fought Mayweather. He wasn't. He was taught a lessen that his trainer never did. Being mis-trained is diffrent than being green.

    Losses to Rungvisai and Estrada don't count.

    So the attention of sport casuals should be factored in when assessing a resume? On that basis Chocolatito is a journeyman...

    It’s like listening to some obscure Punkrock band that nobody has heard of……no that music on the radio is actually better.

    If you check I didn't say "Canelo was green" - I said "still a bit green at the real top level" - which he was, who had he fought that came close to Mayweather up till that point? I guess one could argue a faded Mosley and Trout maybe, but still not great prep for Mayweather IMO - but then tbf Mayweather was always gonna be a big step up.

    Funnily enough, I see Canelo's level of comp there a bit like what Plant's is now relatively speaking - Plant is taking a massive step up in level and experience, the same as Canelo did back then.

    Well, you're gonna be hard pressed to find anyone during that time on Mayweather's level. Doesn't mean CA was not experienced enough. Just meant he wasn't good enough.
