    Pretty much what Pacquiao did with Margarito and DLH did with Sturm. Lots of others throughout recent history have done it.

    That's true and of course what RJJ did with Ruiz. And I don't think it's something to criticize them for, as moving up in weight is hard to do and an accomplishment even if you pick on the weakest Champion.

    My problem with this announcement isn't that there's anything wrong with this, it's just that I'd rather Canelo stay at Super Middle and focus on defending his Undisputed Titles. Because that's a rarer feat in boxing than winning a title at a higher weight class. Then again, the amount of weight Canelo would be moving up to from where he was does make it more impressive than what Pac did vs Margarito or what DLH did with Sturm. That's a much higher amount of weight to traverse.

    That was what Oscar said silly goose, not Canelo. Always confusing the two.

    you can’t really duck a fighter that’s not in your weigh class that’s 1st, 2nd GGG got a draw then got beat down in the rematch and hasn’t been heard from since, last how do you bash Canelo for going up in weight to fight world class fighters when GGG won’t even fight world class fighters in his OWN division

Not saying the people canelo fights have earned it but they have belts its canelos fault that benavidez was to ****ing lazy and high to make weight so lost his belt now complains somebody is avoiding him his own dumbass faults are the reason canelo could even unify without fighting him lol wtf yall are dumb at your job in real life it they are like you can go against this guy he sucks but you will get paid the same and get the same praise if not more or you can go against this guy that is pretty good but the praise won't be higher and neither will the pay why the **** would you go for the ladder lmao freaking stupid oh also if you lose to the pretty good guy your pay could go down yea yall make no sense at all smdh practice what you preach no way would you do that at your job!!!

    Great post, but who would you prefer Canelo fight next? Would you prefer he stayed at SMW and defended his titles or move up? And what do you think will happen if he moves up to CW? Do you expect him to then drop back down to SMW and eventually defend the Undisputed Titles?

    honestly I really don’t care who Canelo fights because to me it’s really no difference, can someone really tell me what makes Charlo or benavidez better than Smith or Jacobs.. for me I would prefer Berter-Bivol Charlo-Benavidez Andrade-Golovkin and Canelo takes on the winners so we can at least have a somewhat legitimate challenger. Who knows what he does after I mean I thought the Kovalev fight was crazy jumping to cruiser is nuts.. I think he moved back down… or as someone suggested earlier maybe use this as a test then unify. 175 after… Canelo is a throwback so it’s really no telling at this point… maybe Canelo Vs Uysk after he beats AJ in rematch for unified HW titles lol

    This is a calculated risk that can backfire on Canelo.
