    It’s damn near the end of June and still no fight signed. In fact, you don’t hear too much from either fighter
    It’s safe to say that if they fight it will be in 2020
    A 38 year old GGG will be easy work for canelo

    Fight dont need to happen. Ggg got out ggg. Real mexican style beat mexican style. Nothing dramatic suspenseful or mysterious about this match.

    Yeah, it seems like Canelo wants to fight Callum Smith now.

    I don't want to see that again. GGG need to stop ducking young hungry lions and stop chasing Canelo. He got plenty other fighters at middle weight or move up and fight some super middle weights.

    Be Smith, or Kovalev, this will be something SERIOUS,
    a big statement by the mere fact of climbing to the ring.

    Canelo wont fight anyone dangerous that for sure. He knows he cannot beat even a 38 yr old GGG in a FAIR FIGHT!!

    Why would he do that instead of attempting to avenge his only career loss for the most money possible?

    Dont care at this point. Would rather see both of them vs other opponents anyway.

    Because he's getting older. Now why would he waste his end of prime years chasing one man. If he really wants that fight. Fight Andrade for his title. If he wins, then it pushes him back up for another match up with Canelo. Canelo wants to unify!

    Canelo already beat ggg I don't see a point in a 3rd fight especially since ggg has done nothing and begin a diva

    GGG Is way beyond his prime and was getting hit with shots in his last fight that he probably shouldn't have been getting hit with. I would favor Canelo by decision in the third fight. At this point, as Kirk stated above, fighting different opponents is welcomed, but i can certainly see why GGG prefers a third fight.

    GGG trying to duck true threats like Andrade and Slick#12 to fight the best opponent in the division.
    But he won the first fight and too close to call in the second so can't understand why he deserves the fight.
    Needs to fight lesser opponents so we can say he's ducking Canelo.
    Also Fury needs to stop ducking Wilder after already fighting him.
    Kovalev is scared of Yarde, that's why they lost their pen.
    Oakland is a great city.

    I don't think he's way beyond, but u are probably right about being past his prime. He does have a new trainer, who's teaching him different methods. However, GGG never been known to move his hand and bob and weave lol
