    They probably do not like him due to his non traditional appearance. It is manifested under the guise of him being seen as privledged.

    Canelo's popular with certain demographics. Some dislike him because he was made this big star by the media before he really accomplished anything. Also because he's white looking most agree he wouldn't have been a star if he looked like your average Mexican that pisses off some people with good reason.

    He's a bit of a teen idol, popular with young girls who think he's cute and generally don't even like boxing.

    I think in the last few fights with the exception of the Mayweather fight he's earned respect from most as the real deal. He may not be an amazing fighter but he's good you can't deny it.

    You are a ****ing idiot. It is as simple as that. If you can't muster even an iota of intelligence, just stop posting.

    I find that hard to believe . Most Mexicans know who he is these days, he is nowhere on the worship level of Marquez never mind JCC , beating Lara without corrupt judging will help it further with his doubters .

    After the Taylor fight Chavez snr was beyond doubt a hero for all nations not just Mexico

    He ruined one of the best fighters ever, sad but the mark of true warrior

    No because he is looked at as a tv product made from this big media company named televisa, Chavez sr is really loved here in Mexico
