He cuts to 155 and comes into fights 171-174-ish.
Golovkin cuts to 160 and comes in around the same. 170-173-ish.
Realistically Canelo would only put on a couple more pounds. Maybe 176 or something.
The 155 catchweight is just a stalling tactic though. It doesn't make any sense in this fight. Rarely are two fighters naturally this close in weight, and they are both champions in the same division, and he wants a catchweight. Lmao.
As I predicted months ago and so far I'm correct:
Canelo will ask for a pointless catchweight when they are both the same size (complete!)
Canelo will demand a venue in some absurd location such as rural Texas, Mexico, or Dubai. His bluff will be called and it will end up in Vegas or Cali.
Canelo will then try to make last-minute lopsided financial "revisions" in hopes that they get cold feet.
He will be dragged into the ring kicking and screaming.
