If Canelo had been born in a different era and could compete in 2004 where would he be ranked P4P?

    Dude.... these threads you are making really make little sense in what you are asking. In 2004....WHO is canelo's competition?? What weight class is he fighting in?? And FFS..P4P is NOT A REAL THING. It's a fan made ranking where few agree on stipulations or criteria.

    I think he'd still be the best at 168 and 175 at this time, so he'd still definitely be top 3, perhaps even top 1, at least by how people would rate it. The biggest issue would be his nationality since Americans were still competitive.

    He'd get battered by a 23 year old Golovkin

    Take away his advantages and cash cow status, and he might not even be the same fighter.

    No, he wouldn't be able to make as much money back then and wouldn't be in the position he is in now to pick and choose and cherry pick and weight clause and cover up all his roids and payoff fighters

    Finally some common sense. I mean, how the eff can anyone answer this w/o saying WHO at the time he would beat to allow him on the P4P list?? But it's a Mark thread....go figure

    No, GGG was just an amateur at that stage, no amateur could beat a prime Canelo.

    Who's his comp in 2004 Mark? How old a Canelo are we talking, current age but in 2004?? Current weight? Is he a cash cow and Golden Boy despite there still being a Golden Boy?
