LIVE on HBO PPV from AT&T Stadium in Texas, it's MEXICAN STYLE!!!! :boxx artytime freddy:hammertime:mj 160lb, 12 rounds for the WBA Middleweight title and a mandatory shot at the winner of Cotto vs. Whoeverthef%ck for the WBC and lineal titles later in the year. Both guys are weighing in at 173 unofficially, both are HBO fighters, no promotional rivalries, both available for May 2, so why shouldn't this happen? :deal
Same weight. No excuses. I think Alvarez is a badass with a chip on his shoulder and this is just the sort of thing he'd go out of his way to do.
i dont think he should take on GGG but he should not take on a bum either maybe one of GGG's previous opponents gealle or murray after GGG rails him
Fans won't approve of that after seeing him take on the top 3 guys at 154. Lara and Trout weigh the same as GGG. So does Alvarez. If Alvarez is good enough to call out the middleweight champ and criticize him for ducking, then it seems like he should fight the other guy he's ducking. Ultimate g move. MEXICAN STYYYYYYYLLLLLLLEE!!!!!!!
If not this year, next year. Or the year after next. Golovkin said this week he's in for another 5 to 7 years.
Tentatively, HBO has reserved the date. But we both know K2 and HBO both would be falling all over themselves to sign a GGG-Canelo PPV for one week prior.
