Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Canelo Brought 'Ducking Golovkin' Critics on Himself

[- Ram Raid -]

That and everything he said leading up to dropping the belt.

"We're Mexican, we don't **** around!"

Yes, evidently you do

Had he have said, "I'm not a middleweight. I stepped up to this division for the Cotto fight who himself isn't a middleweight. My immediate future is at 154lbs" then hay-ho, we don't have too much of a problem. Instead he creates a ****storm by running his mouth then running away. Completely avoidable.

Everybody knows Canelo dropped the belt, and went back to a division he hasn't fought in for three years, to gain leverage against lil g.

[Chrismart]

He's right. The stuff Canelo did and said painted him into the corner he finds himself in.

The back-lash from fans was inevitable.

He is a f.. coward. Period. And I'm mexican born and raised by the way. He is such an embarrassment to our country. He knows that GGG is going to demolish him.

As a person with zero skills in Spanish, may I ask how the sports media in Mexico are handling the duck? Are they still behind Alvarez or have they criticized him for it? or is it a mix of both? What about boxing fans in general? Thx.

Hey wolf I agree and I'm Mexican too. I would say approx 90% of my fellow Mexicans that I know agree that Can'tNelo would get knocked the fawk out against GGG.

EXACTLY!!! And would of saved him at LEAST $500,000 in cash not paying the sanctioning fees.

Sht!! I give Cotto he's one smart guy. He saved $300,000 when he dropped the belt. He knew he would either lose to Canelo and lose the belt or Win and have GGG as the mandatory. Which he would lose the belt...

[Teetotaler]

I thought he was gonna bring up gingers trash talking. He doesnt put his friends jacobs or quillin (when he was a mw) on the same boat

[Beto El Lobo]

It's 50/50. Many people bash him, while others defend him, business wise. Zurdo Ramirez keeps on criticize him on his dicision to vacate. The problem is that he ran his mouth, and didn't back it up

Paulie is a wiggger he'd never say anything about a black fighter.

Along with the $800,000 step aside money they wanted him to pay to Golovkin it makes you wonder did they ever really believe he'd hand over $1.1million? Miguel gets a lot stick for being a 'diva' but the bottom line for me is he knows what his name's worth and he knows how to make it pay.

Like you say maybe Golden Boy and Canelo should have paid more attention because they dropped the ball on this one.
