Why do you think Canelo isn't better liked?

    How is that a diva thing to say? What exactly did he say and when did he say that?

    He didn't even end up only fighting on PPV. He ended up fighting on Regular HBO vs Kirkland. APPs weren't a thing back then, back then PPV was the only real option for top draws.

    GGG didn't have the skills to win a decision vs Canelo. Canelo landed the better harder cleaner punches, that's why he won.

    He looked like Hercules for the first fight, unnatural, then we saw why. Nothing more to discuss.

    That is what he said, and it pissed me off, and i thought, who's this guy think he is? I ain't paying to watch him. I did watch the HBO replays of coarse and recorded them. So i leaned more towards the blue collar guy who wasn't a diva, who was knocking everyone out. BIG DRAMA SHOW. You know what i mean? Not the Diva, "from here on out i will only fight on ppv. Get the flack out of here.

    You suffer from confirmation bias. If he was so doped up for the first fight vs GGG then why did he gas so horribly in the middle rounds?

    Sometimes drugs dont work out like they should. Too much muscle, and too much GGG, i would say.

    So this comment from Canelo about how he wanted to fight on PPV for now on after fighting Mayweather is what caused you to root for GGG instead of him? I never even heard this comment from Canelo. Can you post the clip of him saying this jazz about wanting to only fight on PPV after fighting Mayweather?

    He set PPV records with Mayweather, so after seeing those numbers he did with Mayweather, why wouldn't he want to fight on PPV after that? GGG never did numbers like that. I can't believe that was the turning point for you to become a GGG fan instead of a Canelo fan. Saying he wants to fight on PPV for now on after fighting Mayweather and doing huge numbers pissed you off? Isn't that just another way of saying I want to fight the biggest names out there and fight in the main event? PPV was the only option back then, I'm merely pointing out that it costs a fraction of the $$ to watch a Canelo fight now through DAZN APP than it does to watch other fighters who fight on PPVs.

    He’s an awesome fighter, people don’t like to see others succeed.

    Something doesn't add up though. If he was doping, how did he pass all the drugs tests leading up to GGG 1? The fact that he gassed so hard in the middle rounds makes no sense if he was on something. Your conclusion is the drugs just didn't work out like they should? You know your story makes no logical sense. He had just moved up to fight Chavez in the SMW division, so if anything he probably did have to cut some weight to get back down to 160. Maybe that's why he gassed, combined with the fact that GGG was a much more grueling match, but your "the drugs just didn't work" argument just doesn't add up.

    The beef stuff, and the fact that he sounds like a cartoon villain doesn’t help.

    You're a lot dumber than I thought. You saying things like "they proved him positive" are you just making up something that sounds good to you. CJ your tricks don't work on me, he was never proved positive whatever that means. I find it humorous that you rely on the authority of the NSAC and their automatic suspension policy for a positive test as some kind of proof, the same NSAC who you consider corrupt and can't be relied on.

    I know the loss still stings CJ. Canelo wrecked GGG in that rematch, gave him a pummeling. GGG deserved everything that happened that night and his fans like you will never get over it.
