    i keep hearing guys saying that golovkin needs canelo for a huge payday, and that canelo doesn't need golovkin because there are bigger money fights for him. i think canelo will vacate and move back to 154 before he lets himself get brutally stopped by golovkin. now since there are so called "bigger fights" out there for him, why don't you guys try to name them. lol name the welterweights he can drag up to 154

    I can't think of ANY big PPV fights for Canelo at 154 or even at 147.
    Pac won't fight him and he would get heat for facing another welter anyways.
    Him vs Thurman or Brook is not a PPV fight.

    they are all welterweights....you asked "name the WELTERWEIGHTS he can drag up"...so I did....you idiot...just like amir khan

    are they bigger fights than ggg? maybe...maybe not....but they are good enough for canelo to get paid prob just as much fighting them...and they are less of a risk(you know like how andre ward was a risk for ggg at 168?)......they will be ppv fights and make canelo plenty of money...enough so that he doesn't need ggg

    ggg has nothing but billy joe saunders and maybe danny Jacobs without canelo

    i asked to name the bigger fights. i also asked who can he drag up from welterweight because anyone who isn't an idiot knows that there aren't any big fights at 154, billy joe saunders and danny jacobs are better wins than canelo dragging up a plethora of welterweights to 154 before his body doesn't allow him to cut that much weight anymore.

    Gennady Golovkin vs Danny Jacobs is a much better headline than Canelo Alvarez vs Danny Garcia.

    Canelo vs Brook @ 154
    Canelo vs Pacquiao @ 154
    Canelo vs Bradley @ 154
    Canelo vs Thurman @ 154
    Canelo vs Vargas @ 154

    are you really defending this right now?

    just like floyd, canelo can make a ppv fight with anyone because of his fanbase alone. just like floyd, canelo can fight anyone he wants. just like floyd, he is going to build a career fighting the best soft touches that are available.

    As much of a fan of GGG I am and as much as I truly despise Canelo for his antics, couldn't the same thing be said about GGG? Any bigger fights besides Canelo?

    And suggesting welterweights for Canelo just goes to show you how much of a ***** Canelo is! Lol

    Shockmaster is almost objective with this post ^ :shock:

    (I doublechecked the poster name, just in case)

    In any case, he is correct.

    GGG/Canelo the biggest MW fight out there and Canelo fighting 147/154 pounders is absurd by now. Unless he wants to drop the extra pound and rule 154 with an iron fist he's going to have to fight Gennady sooner rather than later and vice versa. I don't see him dropping the WBC belt and retaining any credibility. Only option is for the WBC to stoop to dirty tricks to keep him as champ and I really hope it doesn't come to that.

    Yep, dragging up welters is the only way to go for him.
