what are the arguments that people justify canelo over crawford?

Probably the competition plus the fact that he's fought in three divisions during the last couple of years, which IMO is a closer indication of what PFP is supposed to be.

Out of Clenelo, Inoue and Usyk. Clenelo has the best resume out of anyone in the top 10 but he lost both of his fights to a way past prime old GGG who is apparently a ''bum'' after shamelessly ducking a younger closer to prime version and the best case scenario for him is he's either 0-1-1 against an old way past prime ''bum'' GGG or if you want to be especially generous to him and champion corruption (which to be fair his doe-eyed fangirls worship at the altar of) and go against popular opinion he's 1-1 against an old way past prime ''bum'' GGG.

Not to mention the numerous other gifts he's received from the judges and the long history of absolutely scandalous with a capital S judge's scorecards in his favour.

"Way past his prime" GGG.......... have a day off

GGG won the first fight and lost the 2nd fight

GGG spent many years fighting your Macklins, Geales, Murray's & Curtis Steven's of this world and by the time he fought Canelo he may have started to go on the slide but by no means was he finished lmao, he was an absolute force.

I agree with most what you say in this forum but Canelo's resume has to be taken with a pinch of salt... Everywhere...

Trout - decent win at best. Trout in the Canelo fight doesn't seem to understand that he's not getting any decision against a guy by throwing tappy jabs. I had that 8-4 Canelo but 3 or 4 rounds Canelo knicked marginally by landing one or two more solid punches. Either way Trout has shown himself to not actually be that good of fighter and has got barely any decent wins himself.

36 yo Mayweather - there was a reason why they picked Mayweather.. He was 36..cherrypick gone wrong.

Lara - talented fighter who clearly beat Canelo. Just ridiculous there's even an argument for Canelo here.

41 yo Mosley - despicable

Cotto - quite clearly past his best. He was past his best when he fought mayweather in 2012 let alone in 2015.

Amir Khan at 160 - dangerous fight where Canelo could afford to be outboxed for a bit as he had a massive size and power advantage. A fight that shouldn't have been made

Old Golovkin - 35/36 guy robbed.. People act like he wasnt visibly slower timing/footwork /reflex than the guy he was in his late 20s. Dumbasses still trying to act like Canelo won.. He didn't win 5 rounds let alone 7 in that rematch.

Dehydrated Jacobs - I remember people saying Jacobs is elite. I've believed prior to the Canelo fight that he is most certainly not. Honestly absolute joke, he's a massive weight bully and relies on that. Looked like a LHW cruiser against Golovkin. Of course Canelo takes away his size advantage and wins a close decision.

Kovalev - never seen a fight like it. Most obvious sparring session I have ever seen. Kovalev has never fought like that

Smith - has always been trash.. struggled against a kickboxer, and beat a slightly past it ****ed shoulder Groves. Smith has a trash resume himself, not only that his upright hands up 99% of the time is made for Canelo. He was also given 3 weeks training camp, and is clear from the prefight build up that it was a **** camp..they even say something about having no sparring partners or good ones I'll have to link it if I find it

I agree with everything you say here but, is there anyone currently active that you fancy to beat him in a P4P match up?

1. Golovkin
2. Usyk
3. Inoue
4. Crawford
5. Canelo

Since Canelo is yet to beat GGG
