One thing I don't understand about Atlas. He has never rated GGG and always been the only ESPN guy to not include him in hi own top 10 P4P list. That's his own opinion..
Now he still calls GGG overrated EVEN THOUGH he had GGG winning the fight. I heard someone say he had it 10-2 to GGG... So what does even make Canelo? The fact that he couldn't beat an 'overrated' GGG.
You can only beat what's infront of you and whoever fights you. His resume of defences isn't that bad, can't be if Saunders' last 3 defences will be former GGG victims (Monroe, Lemieux & Murray)..
After every fight, he's always called for other MW champions, when it was Martinez, Cotto, Chavez Jr. etc. I don't know about if any negotiations where ever carried out. But other fighters chased the 'other' fights where they would potentially make more money.
Great post and point. If GGG “clearly” defeated Canelo and Atlas ranks Canelo as one of boxings top fighters, where’s the kudos for the performance. Everyone wants to be the first to call this or that in boxing that sometimes they do it while sacrificing sense making and GGG has had way to many chime in on him and his fantastic career.
