Who checked the win record? How could Alvarez have beaten Mayweather one day before the fight happens? Today is 09/ 13/2013. record post win on 09/14/2013. Needs proofreading. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.117.82.2 ( talk) 03:38, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
So... We see phrases like "the only downside", "crushing third round knockout", "a crushing blow that knocked Baldomir out cold", and "It was a competitive fight despite the wide margins on the official scorecards". There are many more and it wouldn't make sense for me to list them all here. We need to be more careful about using such subjective and seemingly invested language as his Wiki page currently reads like a publicity piece. -- Scardinoz ( talk) 23:28, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Saúl Álvarez → Canelo Álvarez – Per WP:COMMONNAME. He is usually referred to as Canelo by sports and news outlets, both English- and Spanish-language. These include ESPN [1] [2] [3] [4], La Opinión [5], [6], [7], Bleacher Report [8], [9], [10], Sky News [11], and ESPN Deportes [12], [13], [14]. He even uses it on Twitter as both his username, @Canelo, and his name [15]. Amccann421 (talk) 03:51, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

This comes up every few weeks, so for anyone to wants to hash it out, let it be done here. There are an abundance of sources which state the result as a TKO, not a KO:
BoxRec is just flat-out wrong here; they call this a KO but Froch–Groves II a TKO? Come on.. Mac Dreamstate ( talk) 18:14, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Since I got a conflict with regatds to WBA Regular titles as legitimate titles when WBA Super is occupied. How do we go with this?
Sources list's Canelo's win over Kovalev as him being a 4 Division Champ since he won the WBA Regular super middleweight title against Fielding, Callum Smith at that time had the Super title. Some sources states Callum Smith's win made him a 4 division champ. Sanctioning bodies doesn't recognize Regular title or list's them in their rankings on their website not unless Super is vacant. The IBF doesn't even recognize "unification" matches with their belt citing the "Regular" title as a secondary belt.
Should we abide on what the news cite or with the sanctioning bodies?
Kovalev's win (counting the Regular title):
Smith's win (Super):
IBF not recognizing the Regular title:
IBF and WBO not listing Canelo as a WBA Champ before his win against Smith:
[...] when reputable sources contradict one another and are relatively equal in prominence, describe both points of view and work for balance. This involves describing the opposing views clearly, drawing on secondary or tertiary sources that describe the disagreement from a disinterested viewpoint.
Okay, that'll do. BlizzyBlizz ( talk) 15:06, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
What does the numbers after the belt mean? Because it's confusing.
Example: WBC69, WBA72, Ring76, WBO79
I think we should remove it because it's really out of place. BlizzyBlizz ( talk) 02:12, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

I propose that the statement that he is the first undisputed super middleweight champion in history be removed. There were two prior one belt champions when one belt was all there was in the division. They were both undisputed. I propose the statement if you modified to State he is the first undisputed middleweight champion in the four-belt ERA. Not the first undisputed super middleweight champion in the history of the division which is incorrect. 2604:CA00:1EA:B8B8:0:0:E60:7466 ( talk) 15:37, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
Canelo's article needs to be edited. He is not and never has been the first undisputed super middleweight champion. He is in fact the third. See wiki article on undisputed champions. Murray sutherland, and park Chong Pal preceded him. 2604:CA00:1EA:B8B8:0:0:E60:7466 ( talk) 15:40, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
the fight should be posted as soon as confirmation is made. I just found out about the discussion page where they label the fight after it happens. It makes no sense to do that because it's a upcoming event. The the results can be posted after. 47.198.114.252 ( talk) 09:29, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
