    Yeah, it's a **** fight. But he's just fought GGG twice so he gets some leniency from me.

    I mean, most fighters have a tune up after coming back from two L's

    Cherry picker in more ways then one. With the Judges, PED's and his opponents. No wonder his hair is red.

    All of this coming from a GGG fan a guy with more bums on his resume than a homeless shelter.

    Why didn't you hold GGG to that same standard? Why didn't GGG fight featherfisted Ward?

    I think you're overrating Oscar's influence on who Canelo fights. We know that back in 2013 Oscar did not want Canelo to fight Mayweather, but Canelo did so any way against Oscar's wishes because he wanted to challenge himself vs the best. Canelo fights who he wants to fight, Oscar is his promoter and advisor but at the end of the day it's Canelo's decision. And frankly I think Canelo has more say over who he fights than most fighters do.

    no not the past - explain why he isn't fighting them now, same as with clenelo.

    I would have thought this was obvious, why the duck?

    this is good though, I'd like it if it wasn't attached to the rest, it is high time the rest fought each other.

    Everyone's looking for the payday it seems and don't want to risk. Derev v Jacobs winner can imo be first for Canelo, they are willing to risk against each other so fair play to both

    to be fair Wade was a staybusy standin, but it was an appalling opponent choice so you have some point.

    to be fair to you though, criticising Canelo for taking on the reg belt holder Rocky, is unfair, you are right - given that 3G's best arguable win is the reg "belt holder" Jacobs in a smaller division!

    I see you are criticising the reg belt holder Rocky as a poor choice for Canelo. I see you are using this to show he is weakazz compared to 3G.

    But -you've not mentioned that 3G's best win is the reg belt holder Jacobs.

    Probably best not to mention that mate you will look an utter fool. Oops I just did. end of thread.

    Pretty sure about all the canelo and Ward fanboys (And remaining *****s of course) insisted 3G face the very best in his first trip to 168.... despite Ward not doing that at 175, nor canelo doing that now.

    Yet he didn't mind building a joke of a career/record fighting the likes of Brook, Wade, Lemieux, Geale, Rubio, Ouma... and countless other hopeless bums where he exploded into the arena shamelessly to a roaring autistic crowd of people like you as a 1/100 favorite.

    Didn't bother to read the rest of your junk and won't bother to read your response to this either. Go cry in a corner about his recent loss to the first opponent he fought with actual hope.
