    If we are being honest he probably should have at least a couple more losses.

    BUT they would be very close losses to elite fighters which he bounced back from in great fashion.

    His 0 is already gone and those losses wouldn't hurt him imo and I think a lot more people would take to him if there was that grain of honesty to his career.

    With his win over GGG I believe he becomes an even bigger draw

    Nope, other than people bitching about it on the internet Clenelo will continue being an A side and raking $20+ million a fight.

    Everybody that currently hates Canelo always has and would regardless of justifying it from being 1-0-1 against folk hero Golovkin.

    People are more interested and pay more to see someone lose, recent history suggests. So it probably has the opposite effect of what you are thinking.

    Plenty of top notch and/or cash cow fighters through history receive the extra round or point in key matches that the general public disagrees with to keep them from getting a draw or an L on the record. Nothing new there.

    Nah, I don't think so. It was a close fight and the judges thought Canelo edged it. The result only enhances Canelo's legacy. He was great. Should be a good third fight as well.
