Who we trying to kid here?? Oscar wants no part of GGG. Not now..... not later.... and certainly not at the weight best suited to Canelo's body: 160 pounds. Oscar would rather Canelo face the likes of Bradley and Khan. I'm sure there's a lot more big names that for some big bucks would be willing to be inflated to somewhere near the new 155-pound division, for Canelo to feast upon. After all, why change a winning formula after all these years, right?
Leave OP alone guys. He's still in the anger stage of his grieving and this behavior is perfectly normal.
Hey OP, don't worry bro. I'm here for you. Maybe you should watch some of those PR fan-made youtube highlight videos of him landing a few shots on elite guys like Floyd, Manny, (Canelo, Margarito removed... they're not elite). Might make you feel a little better you know? Heck, who cares if he lost every marquee fight he was in? (Ricardo Torres, Judah, Mosley, Margarito 2) It's okay. Don't listen to guys on the forums and stuff who taunt you and torment you day in and day out. You can still consider him the goat or king cotto or el angel or whatever else you want. (Read my name again). Make more spiteful threads if neccesarry. You deal with this however you need to okay? Whatever makes you feel better.
If you ever feel like talking to someone don't think twice about reaching out. And feel better bro. It's just a sport you know? Don't take it so hard. Have a good one!
That was funny dude. Although there are some minor corrections I had to make. Still..... it's all good. I'd rather root for a Cotto, whose resume is still light-years better than Canelo's.... and who doesn't need to fight guys he outweighs by 20-30 pounds, something that seems to be all the rage with Mexicans like Canelo and Junior.

Is there any link for that?
Canelo gonna do what he wants. That's how it is in Boxing when u get to call the shots. Canelo is a big boy though, made Cotto look mini. He's big enough to bang at middleweight imo.
Oscar wanted no part of Lara or Trout either. Canelo ultimately decides who he fights.
You're not saying anything new here, how far fetched that a promoter would rather have his biggest star take on low-risk fights rather than facing the boogeyman.
Sounds familiar.
the hate is strong in you...

Told by @makeawar 160 weight not an issue for @Canelo. Bigger thing was crafting the right deal for @GGGBoxing and having more "buildup."— Lance Pugmire (@latimespugmire) diciembre 14, 2015
:lol1: Don't worry, he's probably going back to his cave tomorrow.
I don't remember any outrage from you when Cotto was ducking the hell out of GGG and defending his title against Geale who GGG had already destroyed. Then Cotto fought Canelo instead of GGG who he should have been fighting. If Cotto had defeated Canelo he would not be fighting GGG and I think you know that.
I just want to set the record straight because Cotto caught a lot more hell than Canelo for this ducking of GGG. Don't know why Canelo gets a pass, other than he's been a media and fan darling since Day One. I've never thought of Cotto as a legitimate MW, and have said as much. But the hate for Cotto on here surpasses anything I've seen on other forums. Yet Canelo gets to skate by untouched. If anything, Canelo is bigger than Cotto and should have his feet held to the fire to fight GGG at 160. No, I didn't think Cotto was going to face GGG had he gotten past Canelo. Not trying to hide that. Just setting the record straight, like I said.
Ggg and his teams should have forced the issue, let it go to purse bid and make way more than they would via negotiation(champ vs interim champ is 55/45, but WBC seems to change the rules all the time so who knows).
Or force Alvarez to vacate and is then called a coward and Oscar a liar for not having the "best fight the best".

Give Canelo credit for winning the lineal middleweight title. That's not a charade and that's not feasting on anybody. That's beating Cotto who was highly respected and the middleweight champion. Oscar is over protective of Canelo but Canelo isn't having it. Canelo was supposed to duck Trout but he fought him. He was supposed to duck Lara but he fought him. Many thought he would lose to Cotto but he beat him. Now he is supposed to duck GGG but he might surprise you and fight him. If he fights some little guy like Khan or Bradley I will be disappointed in him but please don't jump on him for a crime he has not yet committed.
For everyone who believes Canelo will eventually face GGG at 160 (even after some..... cough.... "buildup" fights)..... I've got some well-priced beachfront property in Nebraska I'm selling right now. Send the money and I'll send you pics.
Agreed. Not a chance. I don't even think Canelo will agree to 158.
Canelo is the "A side." He's going to demand 155, 156.
And yes, I agree that GGG was doing something similar in offering 164 to Ward. However, Golovkin doesn't hold a SMW belt.
But anyway, everybody who is able to play weight games to gain advantage over an opponent, is doing so in today's unregulated boxing world of zero meaningful titles and belts.

I'd be surprised if Canelo went all the way to 160 but honestly who cares if it has to be at 158. If Golden Boy want to retain the weight issue as a negotiation point then that's on them but as long as they don't abuse it with some 155 nonsense then I can live with it. Golovkin's tight at 160 but he's not a skeleton. It will still be a real fight.

Bingo....
Canelo is not like those Al Haymon puppets, he calls his own shots. If he wants to fight GGG he will and he will fight who he wants in May.
