    GGG is a well mannered guy, we all know this, but sometimes to get what you want, you need to take a different approach. He should have took the mic and said give me my belt or something along those lines. I dont wan't Canelo to vacate the title, if GGG is not drained at 155, he should really just take this fight at 155. I don't understand GGG's management. Why throw away a chance at beating the #1 draw in boxing? Does his management want him to be known as the guy who is being ducked by the #1 draw in boxing, or the guy who beat the #1 draw in boxing.

    True, Canelo came off as a G when he said we mexicans dont fk around or something like that. GGG should have took the mic and responded.

    Step aside $$$ doesn't make up for the money GGG would be making if he beat Canelo.

    Going down 5 lbs is very risky if you have no experience with it. That is why Canelo created canelo weight, it gives him a big advantage. His team brings him on point and have the capability to bring him back to 172-173 on fight night. that is 12% of his body weight. Maximizing this regain won't work in the first attempt, meaning GGG might be heavily drained in the first place and will give up some lbs on fight night.

    A good example to look at is Kovalev. Than JDJ started to work with him, they managed to only put him back around 182-183 lbs on fight night. In the Hopkins fight it was 189 lbs. Every body is a little bit different, you need experience with your guy to maximize the regain. Golovkin's camp has no experience in getting him down to 155 and no experience in getting him back up from that point. he would do it if he has no other options I think but as long as there are other possibilities they won't take that risk, especially as they are the camp that doesn't bend the rules in that case (MW limit is 160 and all that)

    All he has to say is GIVE ME MY BELT. Not that hard lol, or take Canelo's belt and say this is mine.
