A written fight contract/agreement should be signed now (if both Team GGG and Team Canelo can agree now) for their verbally agreed fight on September 2017.
What should be the necessary conditions to be included in GGG-Canelo contract/agreement for their September 2017 fight?
I prefer May but we already know Canelo ain't fighting Golobkin coming off a hand injury.
Hand injury or not Canelo was never fighting GGG in May. After Canelo ran his mouth Oscar stepped in and said it would happen in September 2017. They're protecting their cash cow, simple as that.

canelo out for year with broken thumb
who cares, they said fall 2017 way before that even happened. maybe theyll use that as some kind of excuse to push it off even more. But really Oscar has until summer 2017 to come up with whatever BS story they want to give the fans on why it cant happen next fall.
Fight isnt happening until GGG looks vulnerable. We've been talking about this fight for a few years and I dont expect it to happen for another few more.
Fall 2017 is BS to keep the fans quiet for another year. If they were really interested in the fight they would make it in the Spring, theyre not even trying to hide their lack of interest in this fight.
1. No one loses
2. 68/32 canelo... 2/3rds for canelo, 1/3rd for ggg
3. 160 for the belts
4. Canelo chooses location, probably la, vegas, Texas
5. No rematch clause, canelo wins he doesn't have to fight ggg again
Just in time for Sept.2017. Canelo's next fight will be GGG.
Not "a" year. Out for the REST of the year. He could fight again in May but he sure as hell won't be fighting GGG then.

4. The ref gets to help Canelo fight GGG if Canelo starts to lose.
Best offer in boxing, GGG should sign
A fight taking place a year from now must have a lot of stipulations/conditions in the contract. Why don't they fight in January 2017 or May?
I prefer May but we already know Canelo ain't fighting Golobkin coming off a hand injury.
2. 90/10 split in favor of Canelo
3. 10 oz gloves
4. Canelo enters second
5. The fight to be held in texas without VADA
6. Golden Boy appoints at least two judges
7. Golden Boy appoints the refereeThat sounds about right. I'm a Canelo fan but not an Oscar fan. I doubt Oscar wants this fight in 2017 so he won't make any offers he thinks GGG would accept. Oscar has never given a single detail about the so called generous offer he made GGG to fight a year from now. I've been a boxing fan a long time and I never heard of a promoter talking offers for a fight a full year before the fight is supposed to happen.
1. GGG can't lose a fight between now and Sept. 2017. If he loses then fight will be cancelled.
