    Uhhhh ... he is aiming for a fight with the guy you and the Clenelites seem to think is the best 160 fighter. Who else is a harder fight at 160? Think before you comment.

    PS - For the record, I don't think 37 y.o Mayweather was ever going to beat GGG unless he drained him to a husk. Certainly not at 160. I'm of the opinion that the size difference between them is just too great, regardless of whether you think PBF is more skilled or not. Personally I think it would have been a dumb fight to make.

    But, Floyd was the one who couldn't stop talking about GGG and who couldn't stop talking about how "easy" it would be to beat him. Of course Golovkin was going to get dollar signs in his eyes like a goddamn cash register, and leap at the chance at fighting Floyd.

    First, I don't believe that "No-Catch Weight" thing. Oscar would spring something up last minute.

    Second, I think it's great that DAZN is standng up to Canelo and his team. It's not like he's getting low-balled, he signed a 300+million dollar deal.
    If he wants to get paid over a quarter of a BILLION DOLLARS!! He might have to take some orders and make the boss happy.

    Make the GGG fight or go home.

    They agreed upon fighting at 175 but with a rehydration clause.

    To be fair, in this specific case DAZN is not panicking but they just don't want to pay again for what they have already paid. Or rather they don't want to pay (too much) for a new product (Kovalev), when they have even better but much more expensive one (Golovkin) already bought and unused.

    Not in Russia....

    Plus, Kovalev has a potential DAZN offer for a Canelo fight lined up (post Yarde)

    A catch? Is it a pun?
