    What about Canelo ducking? If that wasn't a blatant duck, please explain to me what you consider a duck!

    1. Knock out everyone he faced so far.

    2. Makes everyone duck him like Martinez, cotto, canelo, mayweather, saunders, froch, and others.

    The process hasn't played out with Canelo yet. When it does then I'll let you know. I give fighters time. I'm not impatient. It's a possible duck situation though. And Bowe Lewis is probably the most infamous duck ever. Tunney drawing the color line was about as blatant a duck of black fighters as it gets. That's an example of what duck means. I could name a few more but it's rare in boxing.

    Ask Canelo. He'll tell you.

    Kovalev certainly respects him thats true.

    Some people do seem to think a fight between the two would be competitive though, it wouldnt. :bart

    Lara wants to fight him
    Eubanks wants to fight him
    Canelo already told him where to find him
    Ward was more than willing to fight him when he was at 168

    Not sure which fighters are avoiding him? Saunders??

    LOL the only guy on that list that would fight him is Eubank. The others run for cover when they hear GGG is in town

    To the uninitiated, that looks like a duck, but in reality not dropping the belt meant Canelo would lose 7-10 million in the negotiations. It's very simple math. It's not what the average boxing fan wants to hear but it's the reality of the situation.:deal
