I'm not saying it's true but there is rumors that canelo ducked charlo and Andrade at 154 . Now once again there they are @ 160 with canelo and Canelo will be fighting at 168. .do you all think canelo will vacate the wbc not only to avoid charlo but to avoid Andrade, Billy Joe Saunders ,Danny Jacobs , Jermall Charlo ? Also let's not forget Jarrett Hurd has talked about moving up to 160 next year with or without the charlo fight ? And come on the talent pool at 168 is weaker. I'm sure 168 has great strong fighters but they aren't as skilled as 160
I cant stand him or his corrupt promoter but id have to say no. I think he lost 2 close fights to Golovkin but they were close and i still hold Golovkin as the best in the division. I never thought he could stand with the top boys at 160 yet he stood pretty strong against the best of them so id be contradicting myself if i said yes now. But thats just my opinion, its still a very valid question. People like Charlo, Jacobs are also big Middleweights and are more mobile than Golovkin.
No he's not he's just "beaten" (although I had him losing) the guy who everyone avoided until he started to slip.....he's got a better resume than Charlo, than Jacobs, etc. Fielding is a gimme fight but he's not running from Lemieux which would of been his next opponent.
I don't particularly care for Alvarez and he can be accused of a lot of things in my opinion but one thing he can't be accused of is running from any one. His past history shows that he will fight any one if the money is right.
I had Jacobs beating Golovkin first. I don't think Canelo is worried about Charlo, but I don't know why he wouldn't want to get that one out of the way now. It would be a much more credible win than Fielding, and Canelo should pick a very basic Charlo apart.
Nobody has ever ducked Andrade in his life. You would need to have heard of him in order to duck him. Moving up to 160 to fight Golovkin is the opposite of a duck. Taking a nothing fight at 168 after beating Golovkin twice isn't any sort of a duck either. Canelo is legit and deserves our respect right now.
