    Oh, **** me.

    Canelo is making a mockery of the sport now.

    And beating up on those Charlo chicks also makes him a woman basher.

    If he's too chicken **** to fight Benavidez, why not fight someone like Yarde or Smith at 175? Beating those guys would be better wins than anyone he's already beat at 168.

    Still not official. I thought Canelo would be smarter than that and choose Mungia. I think his original plan was always the two charlo brothers but it should have been obvious the Mall fight is a terrible option that pleases nobody. Imagine if he fights the guy who co mained his last fight rather than the main eventer division number 1 lol.

    You know I would normally say a guy with canelo's record having faced as much good opposition as he has, deserves a few light touch defenses. But this is Canelo we're talking about, he doesn't deserve anything of the kind in light of all those dodgy scorecards over the years.

    We already knew this.

    To save you guys the heartache Canelo' next opponent for September will be Munguia, Morrel, or Berlanga, and then in 2025 it will be Benavidez, possibly in May or even September.

    He could retire today and he would have accomplished more accolades than 99% of fighters fighting today.

    Time to accept that Canelo has come to collect on his investments.

    There's alot of rumors swirling around that his big announcement tommorow is that he is leaving PBC. PBC cannot come up with the money to put in escrow for his next fight, preliminary talks are back on for a fight with Munguia.

    Don't blame Canelo, blame Jack for declining the 176lb cruiser catchweight again. It's pretty hard to dare to be great when others won't meet you on the dance floor.

    Nah, declining to defend championships at catchweights is always the right call.

    Those rumors stem from literally one person. Rick Glaser, who is a total clown pbc hater.

    Tim Tszyu would them both. In the same night.


    One after the other.
