Yes. I own up to it, and give the reasons why.

BTW the previous analysis was free of charge.
I think it was a fair assessment of Canelo but I would give Saul more credit for unifying the super middleweight division and taking on Bivol.

I can't argue against that. Once he settled in at 168, it became his division. Not one of the strongest divisions, mind you. Plus, I'm sorry... but this element of his resume with feasting on easy opponents who happened to be British... Canelo should forever thank the UK for that. It's a disproportionate amount of success.

Taking on Bivol... ok, yes again. One of the precious few times he's ventured into dangerous waters without any diva clauses, marination, catchweights, or other such nonsense. Personally, I think that was a mistake from him and his team that I'm sure he secretly swore never to do again. Now he's back to his usual ways, wanting to drag Badou Jack to 180 and STILL fight for a cruiserweight championship. It's embarrassing for boxing.

Rarely, if ever, has a high profile champion such as Canelo been so blatantly and unabashedly open about jumping one, or even two divisions, to go after hampered, exposed, or just plain weak-ass champions for a damn trinket. That to me is the legacy that Canelo's going to leave behind.
