    Bumlovkin would have to go to 175 to get a legitimately big fight...

    The question was aimed at the Bumlovkinites...

    They hated Floyd too. Didn't stop them from buying his PPVs.

    At the end of the day it's all about numbers. Alvarez has them. Bumlovkin *doesn't*...

    You need to lay off the Crack. Brook was the A Side and sold all the tickets...

    Both Alvarez and Mayweather have beaten better opposition than has the Triple Duck...

    Do you understand what Kirk is saying? You wanting to dis Canelo so bad doesn't hide the fact that Canelo is a way bigger draw than GG.

    97K PPVs sold = Not a draw

    Rooting for important fights not to happen.
    Racism is so illogical.

    You think Brook could sell tickets if he fought some random UK level opponent? Nah, Brook needed GGG to do those numbers.

    Brook could have moved up and fought Eubank Jr. or Saunders in the UK and did the same if not more numbers.

    If I was GGG or his advisor, seriously I'd take this fight for expenses and a small (20%?)
    cut of the PPV. After he Rouseyfies Canyello, GGG would be in the drivers seat with any
    rematch or upcoming bouts.

    Make Canyellow put up or shut up.

    You won't get any argument from me that Chavez Jr isn't a good fighter. But, you have to accept reality that Chavez Jr is very likely to re-hydrate close to 30 pounds and he is working with a known PED cheat in Memo. So, even someone as ******ed as you can put A + B = C in this fight. Canelo is a midget. He is not a puncher and he is not a mover. I don't care who wins this fight I gain nothing from either fighter winning.

    Canelo will be a sitting duck for Canelo combinations.
    He walks right in with his head down with no jab, no head movement and no parry.
    His strategy is to take his opponent's punches until he gets inside or backs/pushes them back to the ropes where he'll finally unleash hooks to the body or head.
    Canelo is a much better body puncher than Chavez, uses his jab extremely well, has a great uppercut and good defence.
    Unless a completely different Chavez shows up, this fight is highly predictable.
