Even as a Mex and Nelo fan Its getting ridiculous Either fight at 154 or 160 In a perfect world, he defends the belt at a full 160 to get used to the division, then fights GGG or just drop the belt and goto 154 Weight doesnt even matter in the fight cause if its 155, 157 or 160 Canelo whoops ggg ass
He has learned from the master the art of controlling everything around you. 2.2 mil, 350k, 300, 900k buys vs 97-150k buys. Who the hell is GGG in the shadow of Canelos star power. He is Willie Monroe by comparison.
This fight wont happen. Canelo was more than willing to face David Lemiuex at 160 if he had beat Golovkin. Oscar and Hopkins are hypocrites. I'm glad Al Haymon rapped and pillaged their company! They deserved it!!!
Canelo is young. A loss to Golovkin wont hurt him. He still will always have the fan base regardless. But I can understand wanting to protect your prized fighter after Haymon purged Golden Boy. Oscar is paranoid. Heck he might even be back on the sauce.
Hell, if he wants to fight at 155 he's welcome to. The division is from 154.5 - 160. He just shouldn't force OTHERS to fight at that weight.
I think some sort of control has to be established in that a title fight cannot be fought with a catchweight under any circumstances because this is what happens.
Yes titles should not be fought for or defended at catch weights. But boxing has no infrastructure to implement rules like these.
155 is a joke, I mean that's Junior Middleweight... Call it what it is and say we will fight anyone at Junior Middleweight but we dont want to fight at middleweight.
Same old story. Everyone scared out of their mind of GGG's power. Happy to beat up blown up WWs. Scared **** less to fight at 160. Canelo a ***** just like all the others.
