40 some fights, a so called world championship, media darling, big purses, and this guy still hasn't fought a live body! (my apologies to those who think Rhodes is a good fighter). Williams, Vanes, Molina, Lara, and Angula are being denied opportunities thay deserve so the crooked scumbags at the WBC and the priicks at GBP can make $$$$. As long as ***** like this continues this great sport will never again be mainstream

Must be because he was on the JMW Ring list...

good point

I didn't realise people thought Rhodes was a good fighter

me neither


canelo is all hype

golden boy does not have any confidence in his abilities because if they did they would have put him in against the likes of

angulo, kirkland, vanes, rodriguez, dzinziruk, lara, williams, bundrage, molina

instead golden boy knows the guy is limited and will keep him away from previously mentioned boxers and wait to cash him out with a big money fight against floyd, pac, and cotto

or match him up with faded and marquee names mosely already signed to fight. standby margarito and mayorga

to keep canelo busy they will have make the easiest and softest mandatory defenses in mexico

And you conveniently left out he's only 21 years old. He didn't have any amateur experience so he's getting his experience now. What's the rush? I'm a fan and I'll admit he's D sucks and his stamina is shaky as well but probably cause of all the weight he gains on fight night so he's probably not ready for any top name just yet. However I do enjoy his offense very much and his composure.

Canelo needs to man up and fight somebody. I don't like Chavez but if it's true he's going to fight Lee and then Martinez, I got to give him respect even if he loses. it more than Canelo is doing. fighting bums, smaller guys and shot fighters just don't cut it for a so called champion.

154 has a lot of talent but Canelo hasn't even beat one of them.
