    It's such a pity that a talent like Canelo is run around by remote control by a guy like ODLH. :verysad At least, I hope that he is and that he isn't such a toss on his own.

    He doesn't fight for money and he certainly doesn't fight for glory. Why does he fight?

    Pity for whom? Canelo? He out earns every current fighter and I have him as fringe top 10 p4p talent. Not sure that's the worst management. I think it was a mistake bringing GGG into the ring as he boxed himself into a corner and caused some backlash. But I think it was wise to let the fight "marinate" for a year or two. You can only fight so many wars before you are permanently damaged. Best to capitalize on them properly.

    I thought he was making business decisions by ducking GGG?

    Where are all those ESB Canelo's accountants at? Can they please explain why Canelo doesn't fight for money yet one of the excuses for Golovkin was that he brings no money to the table? I'm confused!

    And he said it himself. Not his trainer, not his promoter, not anyone else but him and on video. Just like he said on live PPV we Mexicans don't fvck around, I'll put on the gloves and fight right now. And just like he said on video after the Cotto fight in the press conference when asked if he will fight Golovkin next and replied "I am ready"
