We gotta be talking about Boxrec right? Because in the real world he's not Top 3.

Canelo is currently rated in the top-three pound-for-pound list by both ESPN and also The RING.

The Mexican first entered The RING’s top-ten pound-for pound list during 2013, which equates to more than six years.

Canelo was 15 years old when he made his pro debut and he’s only just turned 29 years of age.

There is no way Canelo could be above Loma, Bud, Usyk, Inoue and Spence. Heck, he shouldn't be above Golovkin.

I have him #3.
If he beat Floyd, there was a very good argument for #1.
Since then Usyk came along and unified a strong division.
Crawford did the same at lightweight, although his move up has been a little wanting so far.
And then you have Loma...

Spence needs Porter and one more top scalp to contend.
Inuoe needs to win the WBSS and hold the belts for a while to contend.
And in the meantime, Canelo has been flitting about the weight classes, not being dominant in any- leaving questions that others- like Usyk, Crawford, and alomst Loma have answered in their respective classes.

Canelo is more deserving as anyone to be the #1 P4P fighter in the world.

He's fought the best competition of any current champion (aside form Manny Pacquiao) and done so in multiple weight divisions.

Canelo beating GGG is equivalent to Crawford beating Spence or Loma beating Garcia at LW. Then Canelo fought the high risk, low reward Daniel Jacobs, a fight he could have easily avoided, but again Canelo has continuously tested himself against the best fighters in the world more so than anyone else in the sport. When you continue to test yourself against the very best like Canelo has, you're going to have close fights. No one else in the sport has even come close to doing what Canelo has done.

Not true, plus he got a few gifts.

You sound like a hater. Look at the records he did beat GGG,

You forgot Trout, Lara, Mayweather, Jacobs, Cotto, Mosley.. The guy has fought a who's who of opponents.

What fight did Canelo get a gift in? he has only lost one fight clearly and that was against Floyd.

No one's obliged to only look at the records and stop there.
