"You're going to see something special" Idc what anyone says this man still has the best resume in boxing currently. I'd love to see Him vs Benavidez but even if he doesn't take that fight he's earned his spot as one of the best. Respect

@ImNotLuthien Ай бұрын

I don´t know dude. I´m definetely not one of those mexicans that hates Canelo just because he is too. But it´s hard to say he´s one of the best when he literally ducks people. I don´t know if I should blame boxing corrupted state or maybe he´s just that good. But most of the time Canelo fights cans. I think its really easy so padded records in boxing, just look at Haney and Tank. The moment Tank took the fight that makes sense, which was against Pitbull, due to his ranking, he lost that shit but of course they gave that fight to Tank. Nobody in boxing is fighting the next contender, they are cherry picking most of the times. That doesn´t mean Canelo is a can tho, his technique is just amazing. But boxing is corrupted as hell and it just rotates around money. Imaginen Khabib choosing to fight a 15 ranked when he was the champion, fans would eat him alive for that. Managers and "yes guys" in boxing are sucking the life and competition out of the sport.

@Aphorim Ай бұрын

@@ImNotLuthien As a Mexican I can tell you that you don't know what you're talking about. Canelo has fought more champions and top ten fighters more than any other Mexican and his contemporaries. He's ducked no one, now if you're angry he hasn't fought David, that's your valid opinion, but don't lie just because you don't like Canelo.

As a Mexican woman I hear him and his confidence. I believe this is a Mexican trait. Many of us we have endured so much intergenerational trauma, obstacles, etc. many of us who came to the usa and conquered everything. We are strong people and we are so much secure of everything we accomplished. I think people who have had privileged across their lives can learn about our Mexican resilience.

His personality reflects in the ring he seems always very focused and natural in there. And he's a winner. I'm starting to respect anyone that wins no matter at what. Unlike him I'm an overthinker most of my early life ive spent thinking negatively and only now I'm starting to transform my thought process into positive.
