    Is Canelo really on neither list right now? He will be on 154's after this fight and has never fought above 155

    He's on middleweight right now. I just decided to leave him off because it's confusing. I don't think the ring will put him on 154 until he actually has a fight there again. Which makes sense.

    I think Canelo moves back up to 155 after this coming fight bombs.

    Will Alvarez/Smith have a higher Buy rate than GGG/Lemiuex??

    Yes, but Canelo demands more money so it will be a bigger bomb.

    So does that double standard also include competition?

    Andadre turned down a Charlo fight and is now saying he doesn't want to fight Lara.

    154 guys are all iffy. We don't know their level, and they are just given acolades for the sake of supporting American fighters.

    I've been here log enough to remember when Jacobs and Quillin were the charlos/andadres/jroks of 160. But then they stepped up, lost and now suddenly 154 is better.

    Pirog broke a lot of fragile hearts. Golovkin is still breaking them.
