Big fights like this that are duds hurt the sport

GGG has only lost to Canelo, and he would be one of those fighters who didn’t have many atgs on his resume but he can always say he was champion in 3 divisions at the same time. What have Crawford and Spence done? Will we see them fight a top p4p fighter anytime soon? At least unify? Canelo is by no means one of my favorites but definitely the best resume since Pac and Floyd.

 

Maybe that's a way to look at it. He knows he lost a step and his reflexes are not elite. The speed difference was too great to make up with good timing. He fought accordingly. I thought he would have gotten beaten up. Relied on defense.

 

For an expensive PPV it sure was a ****ing dud.

 

Spence was ranked on most media outlets at around #7 p4p after only beating a damaged Brook for his first title. What other fighters got top 10 p4p after winning 1 title?

 

How??????? One of the most skilled and one of the best resumes with no controversial wins.

 

Even Hopkins vs Wright was more exciting than this fight. Go figure.

 

Spence and Crawford have beaten better fighters without any controversy

 

Golovkin prime for prime was a great fighter: beautiful footwork, great power, GOAT jab, chin, and was stellar at cutting off the ring. It's not his fault he was avoided

 

That fight was actually exciting if you understand boxing

 

Eh I dont know if it really has a long term effect like that. I mean the Fury/Wilder fights were great, did boxing get bigger because of them though? I dont think so. Meanwhile Floyds fights were often pretty dull and everyone knew it going in but he still went years and years doing huge buyrates for every fight anyway.

 

but he dont get extra credit because of it either. he fought who he fought.

 

Hey, you have a right to an opinion.

 

What do you expect when two elite fighters go up against It? Sometimes Its a chess match.

If anything, Canelo should have bought the smoke and he didn't seem bothered to tbh.

 

Yup, it's not the first one lackluster fight, won't be the last. You can only hope Crawford vs Spence doesn't disappoint

 

No I'm curious as to his top four wins considering that you place him in the top 100 boxers of all-time.
Don't know why Crawford and Spence were brought into this but I will bite.
Crawford and Spence in my memory hasn't had an controversial decisions in big fights go his way.
You can't point to one fight of either of those two and make an argument that they should have received a loss instead of a win.
Canelo on the other hand that's not the case. Like him or hate him there is absolutely no way possible he received a draw in the first GGG fight other then he was the top earning fighter in boxing at the time which played a huge factor in the draw.
I asked basically out of curiosity not trying to argue or disagree for you to name the four fights of CANELO that make Canelo worthy of his placement in the top 100 boxers of alltime.
I don't like Mayweather but I can easily name you 4 of his most notable wins if I was trying to justify his placement into being included into the 100 greatest fighters of all-time and NONE of the wins have any controversy.
You on the otherhand can't simply name me four of Canelos best wins.
