Because this current "version" of Canelo is a washed up husk of his former self. 154 Canelo was my favorite. He was a beast that fought everybody. 168 Canelo is a pathetic excuse for a fighter. He beat all that Euro trash DAZN cherrypicked for him and had some of y'all fooled.

People really think "this version" of Canelo is better than 154 Canelo?

154 canelo had a counter punching style.
168 hes been a stalking walk them down style, used to throw more combos but now a lot less. His initial run to collect all the belts was impressive but after that when he stopped getting KOs he had a steep drop. Could even say he hasnt been the same since the Bivol fight.

Bivol whooped the prime right out of Canelo on Cinco de Mayo 2022. Canelo looked fantastic in his previous 2 fights against Saunders and Plant.
So yeah, 2021 was his last prime year. Thanks to Bivol.

Alvarez learned a lot from that loss

Munguia was too competitive for a tailor made opponent!

Then, he used "Caneloweight" 155, to avoid fighting GGG, in spite of holding onto the Middleweight belt.
Post GGG II-The Pandemic era (2018-2021) is the best version of Canelo.
The Bivol fight was the beginning of his decline.

Canelo didn`t like close fights at 154 and 160 ( GGG) so he decided to move up with the idea that bigger guys would be also slower. It worked perfectly at 168.
But in GGG fights he also understood he had a great chin himself so that was enother reason that encouraged him to move up.
Bivol fight was a mistake. Canelo started to believe in his own hype , together with his crazy fans here that expected him to challenge Usyk.
He never had a chance against Bivol.
