    He can't make 154 anymore. That's the ironic thing. He is not ready for 160 but can't make 154. Isn't a good sign that you are ready for a higher weight when you can't make the lower one? I guess he thinks he is going to just create a new weight division called "Canelo weight" which is 154.1 to 155. Like boxing doesn't have enough f*cking weight divisions!

    Even if they did, GGG will end up weighing 170 on fight night so why not just have them come in up to 160 and put a rehydration clause in the contract? Wait, I know why...because Canelo wants GGG to kill himself to make weight like he had to when he fought Floyd. Boxing is filled with effing divas!

    I had a similar problem in high school football. I was too slow for DB/Wr, but too small for the line. I was pretty awesome though, as long as I could convince everybody else not to be too talented for me. Pretty much what Canelo is trying to pull off here.

    what evidence is there he can make 155 easily? he's never fought lower than 158 as a pro

    Geale was also a small MW, and look what losing 3 lbs more did do him

    GGG holds 2 middleweight straps now and is the mandatory for Canelo/Cotto winner. Asking for 155 is just absurd on Canelos part. Look at the constant bashing you gave Triple G for asking for a catch weight with Ward. Now imagine if GGG was fighting at 164lbs, held a title and Ward was his mandatory. My god, you guys would totally flip your ****!

    he said hed make 154 for floyd.

    155 should be easier. canelo is a high reward fight for ggg.

    geale was 182 pounds when he fought cotton. still got destroyed

    just because Ward said he'd beat Klitschko at HW, does saying it make it true? :patsch

    GGG and Sanchez can say what they want, the fact is Golovkin has never fought below 158 in his career, until he proves otherwise he can't make 154 without it being a problem

    and besides, if your fighting for a MW title, it's at 160, not 155, 157 or 159, otherwise nobody will take you seriously and you become a bigger joke with each passing CW

    just makes Canelo and Oscar look like idiots, a few months ago they were saying entirely different things about a potential fight with Golovkin

    Why should Ggg be 168-170 and Canelo get to be 171-174?
