    Canelo: afraid to fight a real middleweight. complete cherry picker. Had a taste of what rela competition is vs floyd and never wants to go back.

    GGG: At least canelo has fought fighters who people care about. ggg is a can crusher legend. IDC if middleweight is just a weak division. I agree, it is weak, which means ggg's opposition is weak.

    both are afraid to challenge themselves, which would mean less if either had ever done anything significant.

    career wise canelo at least fought cotto and mayweather. if thats what you want to call the latter.

    who wins? who cares? How did canelo vs ggg ever even become a super-fight. ggg wins. simple as that. but how we've been tricked that this fight has to be made is crazy.

    Who cares if canelo never fought a legit mw he never even fought at the mw limit in his career. He's not a mw

    Yet has been fighting at middleweight for his past what? ....4 fights?

    Also he was the 160lb WBC champion, last time I checked if you are a champion of said weight you should expect to have to face fighters of said weight.

    Dude in damn near every state 1lb is allowed in a non title fight, acting like non titles fights 1lb above title weight is jumping weight classes is the dumbest argument ever.

    He won the title from cotto and has never fought an actual mw in his career. Yep definitely a legit middle weight

    If Spence and Porter fight tomorrow at 147.5 or 148 no one is going to call them JMWs.

    The Cotto/Canelo WBC reign has been a complete farce, draining fighters and fighting welters.
