    ward was a nobody when he signed up for the super six. he won, great accomplishment. since then he wants nothing to do with fighting anyone. just wants to run his huge flapper. let me know when he gets another fight of any significance.

    Hopefully this year he faces Kovalev. I think it was part of the HBO contract. It's annoying. He has wasted over 3 years of his prime, his most notable showing lately was appearing in the movie Creed.

    And although it's not his character's fault in the movie, in it, his fight gets cancelled/postponed. Gee, what a surprise.

    If GGG doesn't agree to the Catchweight then I think Canelo will just vacate. These titles are meaningless these days anyway.

    But isn’t that exactly what Floyd done to Canelo? A reporter asked Canelo back in like 2011 or something if he’d do a catchweight to fight Floyd. Floyd then used that to say “the catchweight was Canelo’s idea” LMAO.

    Both Canelo and GGG at some point were asked if they’d drop down in weight to face Floyd. (Canelo down to to 150, GGG down to 154) Both obviously wanting the biggest fight out there at the time indicated they would.

    Now GGG is saying he’d only go to 154 for Floyd? (but not Canelo?) This is why catchweights are bad for boxing. They create situations like this. The main difference here is that Canelo has never truly fought at the MW limit before, while Floyd had already fought and won titles at the full Jr MW limit, making Floyd’s catchweight vs Canelo more ridiculous then a catchweight for GGG vs Canelo.

    I hate catchweights, and would like to see the fight at the true MW limit 160, but if Canelo’s team are using similar tactics to what Floyd did vs him, then can you really blame him? We didn’t hear much outrage at the time over Floyd trying to get Canelo down to 150 and settling on 152. But now that we hear rumors of Canelo trying to do the same thing to GGG.. you would think Canelo had been the one going out of his way to drain Floyd or Cotto LOL.

    If you're potentially draining yourself to make the fight, you need the right financial compensation, GGG could be taking a huge risk I wouldn't go down for anything less than 50/50.

    :lol:

    Don't worry, it's all in the first 30 minutes or so in the movie. He just has a cameo. There's also a brief 24/7 with the narration of Liev "Ray Donovan" Schreiber.

    I never spoil the endings of movies and shows.

    I wouldn't drain myself, period. I'm betting these guys know their limits.

    Boxing is already dangerous as it is, it's ****ing criminal and disgusting of Canelo to ask GGG to drain down to 155 and offer him 10-90 split.

    I mean what the **** is wrong with people who support such garbage?!
