Canelo is aware of Floyd's jealousy and obsession.

been saying for years floyds legacy is not going to age well. TBE my ass lmao

 

Neither will Canelo's legacy.

 

Lower level boxers. And? You expect a guy to fight HOFer's every fight?

How about, from earliest to oldest bouts:

Diego Corrales
Jose Luis Castillo
Arturo Gatti
Zab Judah
Ricky Hatton
Shane Mosley
Miguel Cotto
Saul Alvarez
Manny Pacquiao
Oscar De La Hoya

I count at least 5 HOfer's on that list. Either already in, or going to be in .

 

Shane was losing to top guys more than beating any after his first win over Oscar. When he got to floyd, he was never a real threat.

 

If canelo cleans out light heavyweight he surpasses floyd.

right now floyds resume is better, but looking at those names it isn’t that much better

Floyd is bitter that boxing has moved on

 

And Rocky Fielding was a threat to Canelo? Callum Smith? I can name a lot more. And LOL if McGregor wanted a fight with Canelo, Saul would jump at the chance to make $100,000,000 which is what he'd make, like Floyd did.

Both guys fought C and D level boxers, but AT THE MOMENT FLoyd's resume is much better. That's my opinion.

 

He should do. I mean, after all, he is the best ever isn't he?

 

I'm as far as possible from a Floyd fan but if you think Canelo surpasses (or will ever surpass) him as a boxer, then I am sorry to say YDKSAB.

 

True, it is. Just when I see people mention Shane as being a big win for Floyd (Not necessarily you, but others have said), have to remind them just how pedestrian his record was post 1st ODLH fight.

 

Exactomundo !!! Canelo just took over the mantle from Floyd. He was made the Cash Cow for Vegas & the NSAC!!! He inherited all the perks too like an assurance he will never be allowed to lose a dec in Vegas & the powers that be turn & look the other way at his Ped's abusing. Neither are a bona Fide Champion or an ATG fighter

 

For what it really means, maybe he is, but that doesn't mean a lot

 

An even older version of Mosley is on Canelo's record.

 

who are you a fan of? asking for a friend

 

Yup and that's the irony. Canelo could somehow retire as the GOAT and Floyd would still bring up how he beat him. So Canelo doing better actually benefits Floyd in the end.

 

I thought all Floyd wanted out of life was a beard and a haircut, what else does he need?
