    no, I've never said hes some all time "great", not once. But not yuou mentioned it, he has the same number of recognised title fight wins as gennady golovkin, whom people are ready to claim is ATG or HoF (hes not yet).

    But you are clearly claiming that the link you provided is eurolevel, when in fact its clearly and blatantly world class with real world title wins.

    your own evidence destroyed yourself, mate.

    I am European so i have nothing against european boxers but it is a term that i use when i fighter did not impress me at all and his record is nothing special

    facing good opossition is one thing and beating them is another one.anyway canelo is probably the best pfp fighter today so it is debatable

    I am pointedly NOT making a comparison, since I am NOT claiming Andries is great.

    I am lampooning a comparison, sorry you missed the significance of this and instead reverse interpreted a lampoon as something worthy of lampooning itself.

    Canelo is better than Andries, but Andries fought better fighters. Canelo is good. No doubt.

    it is world class, not euroclass.

    take it back and all is forgiven.

    of course I see your point. Juan Roldan lost to the top guys also.. But Andries was champion at 175 I think 3 times.. he had to lose 3 times also. So I see your point.

    Canelo should postpone his fight vs. GGG. He is too defensive right now. This is more about the test than about the fight.

    Let's throw in some numbers, make this objective.

    How many fights did he have in each respective division above WW and how many KOs did he score in each respective division? Anyone got any numbers like those?

    It would also be great if we knew how many opponents he knocked down (not how many total KDs, but how many opponents above WW he was able to get to the canvas at least once).
