    Yeah but I'm suspcious how he does it. Seemed to have a massive size advantage come fight night against the Cotto,, Khan and Smith...yet against Mayweather with that addtional drug testing, size advantage wasn't so much....

    I'll train IB. HGH and torodal are on the menu. Now i don't know if this will compete with Russia's new drugs but ill probably NOT stop the fight if you're beating his ass.

    Confusing and meant to be.

    I'm a fan of Golovkin but to be honest I've gotten to the point where I don't care anymore,people call it a weak division but None of em will face Golovkin,Saunders is doing a Tyson Fury and is still probably wearing his WBO belt and going to bed in it,Hearn said that Canelo wants to fight at middleweight but is killing himself for Oscar to fight at 154/155,Jacobs has delusions of grandeur and Eubank Jnr is wasting his talent by fighting British level guys.

    Have I missed anyone?if Tureno Jhonson and Khurtside are any good then sure why not but couldn't they have one of them lined up in the knowledge that Jacobs would get cold feet?

    No question Golovkin gets messed about and avoided by those in his own division but wouldn't it also been an opportunity to put his belts away and have a non title fight against a super middleweight?

    Well You'd of thought Virgil Hunter would have seen it all and even he said he'd love to be a fly on the wall to see how does it?not sure if he meant the weight cut or rehydration or both?
    Yeah the Mayweather thing probably sowed the seeds of doubt in Canelo re him having to outweigh all his opponents by so much,Floyd got him at 152 and I'm guessing a hydration clause.

    I've heard some on here spout blood doping re Canelos ability to cut weight and pile it back on but I'll be honest here and just say I don't know what they mean?i don't see how blood doping would have anything to do with making weight?

    Too funny IBF morning weigh in limit is 170 and Canelo fights at 165-170, GGG fights @ 175+

    Why do you think Canelo wanted GGG to drain down to 155 and GGG said F that i'll need to cut off my big ass Vag lips to get that low.

    If it's only moved back to Jan/Feb then that's not so bad really. If it goes further back than that then he should get the IBF mandatory out of the way or something. I see Vanes said he would fight on Twitter lol and Spike O'Sullivan too. Can't say I'm remotely interested in either fight but I'll take a crap fight over no fight if it leads to Jacobs early next year.

    That said, now Dec is available I'm sure Saunders will be yapping on twitter demanding the fight. Oh wait...

    Not sure but he's got a few mandatories so might aswell get those guys out the way. So Johnson,Derevanyenchenko and heiland I think should be next up if he cant get anyone big.

    Tureano Johnson, Heiland or Lee are likely the only guys
    that wouldn't be afraid to fight him. All would be fairly interesting,
    I give really none of them a shot however.

    Are you one of those special people that thinks Canelo weighs 185?

    I bet you think he's 5ft9 too?

    Another B level bum is likely and it seems HBO will accept any fight when it comes to ggg.
