    Boxing is horrible. As usual, it seems the fans are the ones who get screwed. Let's remember, this is AIMING for fall 2017. So that isn't even a sure thing. And in the mean time, Canelo is going to 154 to most likely fight Liam ****ing Smith (which will of course be PPV, 'for the fans') to prep himself for 160? Like, how the **** does going to 154 help prep for 160? It's just horrendous stuff.

    Most of us knew something like this was going to happen but I tried to convince myself otherwise because I'm a sap. "We don't **** around!" *proceeds to **** around*

    And that makes it ok for you to wait a year? So the promoters make more money? So the PPV costs more? It's BS man and you know it

    Oscar knows Golovkin will lose to Eubank, and then Canelo won't have to fight GGG who is the worst stylistic match-up for Canelo.

    This is just a way for GB and Canela to ease the fans and pretend the fight will happen but it probably won't happen even when we reach next year. Just fooling the public as usual.

    TrashMaster, it's not GGG's fault that DuckNela and other cowards(for example Andre Son of GGG Ward) are scared to death to fight him.

    Ward is fighting Kovalev, I don't think we need to bring up this argument again

    The fight isn't ever happening cuz Canelo and Oscar just don't want it. The perfect opportunity has been and gone , it can't marinate any more than it has, its already going stale.

    It appears Mexicans do fukk around and those gloves were never guna go straight back on. I don't hate on them for not wanting a nailed on beating I hate on them for not just quietly dropping the belt and side stepping ggg but keeping up this ridiculous charade for as long as they have and still are

    So let's say the next 4 fights are:

    G vs CEJ, Heiland, Johnson, Jacobs and then Canelo. I can live with that.

    Canelo probably fights twice in that time. Bradley and BJS.

    Here's the real business that's going on......one brand is on the rise and one brand is on the decline.

    Will be interesting to see who is A and who is B in 12 months. Canelo the businessman!
