The governing bodies will say, you have two choices, fight a voluntary defense or fight a mandatory, guess which route GGG likely Goes? "I want big drama show with mandatory!":rofl
So what if he does? He can do whatever he likes but I repeat, if and when a mandatory fight is put in front of him Golovkin will fight it. Canelo ran away from his mandatory :rofl after all of Canelo's boasts this is the most cowardly act in boxing for many many years. So many pro's and coaches have come out and slaughtered Canelo for ducking, real boxing fans have slaughtered Canelo, it's only GBP, fanboys, Golovkin haters and morons (pick a group to be in) who think what he did was fine and was a smart business move :good
No way is Canelo considering bjs at 160. Saunders would beat him and the goldenboy matchmakers know it. It wont happen.
:deal GBP will offer BJS money to drain himself to an unhealthy state, expect him to go to the US where Canelo is virtually unbeatable in the eyes of the judges and be happy with the honour of being robbed on HBO
Personally ...No I don't think its a cherry pick, but in Oscar and Canelo's minds, they might think it is. After all Oscar naively brought Curtis Stevens in to be a victim for Patrick Teixiera, that cherry pick turned out excellently for him.
atsch You're on a roll. Picture the follow scenario: A few years ago, GG had moved up to SMW where he'd won the lineal belt. Then Andre Ward became his mandatory in what was deemed to have been a huge, highly anticipated unification fight. But beforehand, GG put in a voluntary request to fight a chinny LMW/MW who'd been knocked out before. And then after knocking him out, he then invited Andre Ward into the ring to prove that he wasn't scared of him. After which he excited all of his fans by declaring he'd take the gloves of there and then, as Kazakh's don't f*ck around. Yet when the dust had settled, he then relinquished the belt and went on to fight another SMW belt holder instead. So let's imagine the above scenario had really happened. This forum would have gone into meltdown with guys like you having gone CRAZY.
the group you missed is Floyd-mos, they are the ones defending shameless diva behavior as business moves. it's the same kind of **** Floyd used to pull with weight, gloves, you name it. all in the name of the A side baby, pull every string you can daring to be great doe no matter what red does they have no choice but to defend it. you can tell because there is NEVER ONE IOTA of criticism for ANYTHING canelo does, while they :|:|:| every step of other fighters. it's got to be a drag really, it's a big burden to keep up with
A non title bout 1lb over a division limit has never been considered jumping to the next weigh, and if the Champ offers to defend a title at basically the weigh below, that isn't on the challenger for accepting
