    Maybe his sparring partner curtis stevens or sum other ggg left over.



    Then ggg will fight another so called prolly tuerano johnson . Maybe we will get lucky bjs or jacobs or even eubank jr theres also korodoor or wat his name is.


    Golden boy might b forced to make fight but canelo didnt prep well with his selection of opponents to fight a full 160 unless hes preparing better in the gym cuz he does spar stevens i believe n he competed at 168 i think

    no way. mayweather, lara, cotto and khan, great opponents like that, totally prepared him for golovkin. gennady had to schlep around with opponents like stevens, murray and lemieux etc. canelo is as ready as he'll ever be.

    canelo needs to strike while the iron is hot and fulfill that contract for next september. golovkin fighting bums hasn't sharpened him- he's ready to be taken down. now's the time for cinnamon kid

    Tough titty.
    Canelo had his chance to get a fight in at 160 and he chose to cherry pick a sh*t chinned WW instead.

    It will end up being Tree Mans tuff titty.

    Canelo isn't going straight into that fight when he moves up to middle weight.

    I can't see that happening.

    Canelo either fights Golovkin next or get stripped, no way after all this talk is Golovkins team going to let Canelo have another defence of that title.

    Are you for real? He can't move up to middleweight he is a middleweight.

    I know it's just language but the limit is 154+ to 160, Canelo weighs inside that range so therefore is a middleweight.

    I'm sure you know don't have to weigh bang on the 160 limit to be a middleweight so long as you are within the weight class that's good.

    Canelo also holds the WBC middleweight title, I'm sure you can't have missed that :good

    Lemieux would be a good test. Really all he needs to test is his power. As far as boxing ability he is head and shoulders above everyone else, and ability to take a punch has been comfirmed against power punchers at 154 in Angulo, Kirkland, and even CIntron landed a solid short right with a lot of power with Canelo coming in.

    Canelo has never fought at 160. The WBC title has been fought for at below 160 for four cosecutive fights now.

    Nothing wrong for a fighter to test the water at the full limit before actually fighting in it.

    Canelo isn't "moving up" to MW. He would just be cutting less weight fighting at the MW limit.

    You can't really believe this and have been a boxing fan for long.

    MW is 154+ to 160. Canelo has fought as a MW his last several fights. He JUST had an agree voluntary defense and chose to fight a blown up WW at 155.
