    "He lost to Bellew". If that isn't a condemnation I don't know what is . He got TKO'd within 3 rounds by Bellew!

    Yes, he beat every 168 pound champ, and I'd be the first to say it wasn't Canelo's fault they weren't very good.

    I know he did, because unlike you I know who the fighter is. Completely and utterly refuting your claim I'd never heard of him before yesterday.

    Either way, like i said it isn't possible for a SMW to cherry pick a CW top 3 ranked belt holder. Just isn't possible.

    And again, going into a division and defeating every single belt holder is not cherry picking.

    This is the worst part. Not that It’d help WBC’s bull**** with bridgerweight and the new cruiserweight limit(though that’s pretty bad top), but we’ll have Canelo nuthuggers spam the cruiserweight threads to praise Makabu who they’d never heard about until less than 24 hours ago.

    Canelo really has wound up the forum, it's hilarious.

    Top 10 in the GOAT list if he wins.

    This fight will be rigged.

    Anyway, it'll make Tony Bellew happy, he will claim he beat Makabu in better fashion than Canelo will.

    Is it funny? He has all three criterias for being very high level ATG. Resume, longevity and h2h ability.

    We live in an era of 4-5 belts per division. Surely even YOU understand being a multiple division champ is NOT the feat it once was.
    So, with that said, what it is about Makabu that elevates Canelo so far on the ATG list? Is Makabu the challenge to boost him all the way to top 10?
