    **** no.

    I don't know why Canelo fans think if Golovkin does something shitty that gives their guy a pass for doing it too. No-one in their right mind watched or defended the Rolls fight.

    Yes Lance, every true boxing fan knows MW is 155-160. However, the Lara, Kirkland and Angulo fights that were held at 155 did not count towards the MW ranking.

    I ended up watching it eventually. I'm a true boxing fan, and not just a boxing fan in championship fights. I watch as many fights as time permits me, whether they are two elite prime fighters, or a tune up fight.

    I was actually intrigued with Canelo fighting at SMW to see if he would carry his power, see if he could overcome size and reach disadvantages.

    But again, I love boxing and consider many aspects of the sport, not just championship fights.

    I want competitive fights. I don't want to encourage fighters to milk fans and mock us with fights like the two we mentioned just now.

    Now I'm happy to watch a southern areas title fight in the UK if it's matched properly but I don't like being sold BS like GGG vs Rolls and Canelo vs Fielding.

    You have very high standards for boxers.

    I personally don't mind fighters taking an easy fight here and there so as long as their main focus is to get the big fights.

    Fighting properly matched opponents? Have your expectations sunk so low that's that is too much to ask of the sports superstars?

    The Fielding fight was marketed as a milestone championship fight when it was a farce.

    I don't mind watching much lower level fights as long as the match making is reasonable.

    You're too ****ing stupid to read things in proper context. People have to dumb **** down for you all the time. It gets dull and tiresome talking to people like you.

    He obviously meant that 155 was not a cw for a MW sanctioned fight. It is very common to fight a pound above your weight class in non-title fights. Why were you compelled to argue about that? LOL

    So Canelo had three SWW fights a pound above the limit. Guess what? They still weren't sanctioned at MW, they were for SWW.

    GGG himself has fought three times above the MW limit, but no one is saying he fought at a CW save the roles fight.

    I have high expectations of fighters.

    I have followed boxing for over 25 years.

    In my 25 years following boxing I've never seen a fighter NOT take a tune up fight.

    Now a days most top fighters seem to mostly take lower tier fights, so to me its a breath of fresh air having a fighter like Canelo take challenges.

    How many fighters today have a resume comparable to Canelo's?

    I guess I'm more realistic than you.

    Don't be deliberately obtuse. They were NOT marketing his fight with Fielding as a tune up. It was sold as a fresh challenge for a 'world' title when it was a can crushing mismatch that should never have been considered.
