    Yeah, his resume screams novice, you dolt.

    No Canelo is right where he should be. His fans rate him high, and his haters want bigger things from him.

    My point is Crawford can't make 112 and 154 is the second or third most stacked division in boxing.

    I'm not super impressed with some of his wins. I'd say he's slightly overrated.

    What the hell kind of backwards ****ogy is this Canelo is guy who's never fought about 154/55 fighting another 154 fighter is the same as a 140 fighter fighting a 112 fighter? In the last 4/5 yrs Alvarez has fought a total of one fighter who had never competed and or won a title at 154 that ain't picking on smaller fighters.

    No, but GGG is severely overrated imo. Kovalev should be getting the hype, not GGG:deal

    :hey Canelo has shown himself to be a BULLY !!!

    He drains down to meet weight, then BALLONS UP to > 170lbs.
    to fight guys weighing 10 to 20 lbs. less on fight night.

    ;) Lately, Canelo refuses to get on the scales on "fight day".

    I can't say I disagree, I never seen him fight. Will this saturday though... But people say the same thing about the charlos and going off what I saw on Lara's undercard, they got nothing for canelo

    I think he is proven at 154. Other than Lara he is the best there based on resume and wins. But, I don't think he is rated that high P4P.

    Once he beats a good MW, he will be rated right about where he should be, though.

    He's a good fighter...not a great fighter!

    He's definitely overrated by HBO and the regular Fanboys on this site!!!

    Got humiliated by Floyd.
    Gift decision to Lara.
    Gift decision to Trout.
    Got hit at will by Kirkland.
    Edged out a worn torn Cotto.

    Received a boxing clinic from Khan for 5 rounds.
    Luckily for him that Khan relaxed his guard when he finally landed the haymaker he had been throwing all night!!!
