The only way Canelo is not a coward is if he makes a decent offer to GGG. He said he was fine with 160, and I believe GGG will take 75/25 or 80/20.
canelo decided he wanted to take time off from tough fights and enjoy and spend some of that money that lil g let him make with his belt....i mean it was alot of money.....canelo wants to relax and spend and enjoy some of it and not have to train hard
The guys thinking money over legacy ........ all to common these days. I would have give him huge props win or lose ... to both fighters actually. IMO both very closely matched skill wise, size wise I think GGG is obviously the more powerful but if Canelo's chin holds up will be a very close fight. Additionally I think fight has to happen between 158 / 160 would prefer full middleweight but i think 2lbs is fair enough to make the fight happen given that is half way point (ish) for their last weight in weights. They are same size fight night regardless.
How about MONEY, FAME, BRAND, NAME on RESUME, PPVs, HOUSEHOLD NAME. Canelo can elevate GGGs brand, fame, and wealth more than any fighter... Pretty damn good reasons.
Canelo now needs Golovkin more than GGG needs him. If gingerhead doesn't fight GGG, he will forever remain a coward. With that problem and without a belt, Canelo can't dictate his terms anymore. DLH f4cked up big time.
