    Yeah GGG would have given anyone trouble, but for a supposedly super slick fighter Canelo got caught a metric ****ton in that fight.

    Y'know something?

    Canelo would get absolutely destroyed by Spinks and Holyfield. And he's about the same size as Qawi, actually a little bigger.

    Wrong, Qawi didn't make him miss a full combination in your clip. He made Holy miss ONE left hook. He was getting clipped as he ducked forward repeatedly prior to that. There's no comparison between that and what Canelo did to Jacobs. Try again next time, maybe you can find some better clips that are more comparable to Canelo.

    You're insulting our intelligence by claiming the clip you referenced of Qawi vs Holy was even remotely comparable to Canelo's sequence vs Jacobs, let alone making the argument that it was "better".

    It appears you have eyes only for Canelo. Qawi is bigger, and made a much better fighter miss more punches (10, to be precise) than Canelo. And he did both while going forward, and backward in that very sequence. Like Canelo did vs Jacobs. Every point you've clung to, has just been destroyed in one clip.

    Btw, I don't think you quote realise how embarrassing you look trying to argue something against a poll which is literally 40-1. If Canelo's in your top ten, how about you give us the list?

    For someone that cries about objectivity and how people are entitled to opinions etc, you tell people they are out right wrong very often

    Ego is outrageous

    Hell, even Johnny Tapia had better head movement than Canelo, when he actually did apply himself and hit pause on brawling mode.

    @Addie used to have a wonderful GIF library that showed it off in the old days when non-mods could embed pics in posts. :ohno

    What you can plainly see is different from how you subjectively score a round. If you see a punch land but someone says it didn't land, that's wrong. If someone scores a round differently than me, that's different from saying a punch missed when it objectively landed. You don't see me telling people who scored either fight for GGG is wrong. But if you're telling me a punch didn't land when it's obvious it did, that's not an opinion that's denying the reality of what happened.

    It was way better, not as needlessly flashy either.

    I doubt you're a proper boxing fan, it seems you only watch Canelo and you never talk about much else, when you do you're totally clueless.

    I'm out of room in my "cannot believe shadow said" bag, so.. :nusenuse:

    Hate leaving food on the table. Kinda like when you shoot two bear or buffalo in Oregon Trail and can only carry a hundred pounds off with you of a thousand.

    :lol:
    It's just unreal. There are lines that cannot be crossed and saying Canelo's head movement is better than prime Ali's is up there
