Canelo: My ideal weight is 160 pounds.

Ok so drop a pound and take Laras belt I already told you what the deal was with that belt.. same belt canelo won from trout and lost to floyd, lara had no business with that belt..

After jumping up and down in weight. The **** he has done the past year cannot be defended but this dudes are here doing just that. 15 million doe. GGG got GBP running around scared as hell.

I think Canelo sees an even bigger storm on the horizon at 154 and decided it was time to bail. You've got Charlo and Andrade breathing down his neck, with the threat of Brook and Spence possibly moving up to 154. Not to mention Lara looking for a rematch and Hurd making some noise at 154. At 160 I think Canelo gets a fight with Saunders before GGG. Steals that belt and then milks 160 against Lemieux, Lee, Eubank Jr. and some of the GGG leftovers. He will never fight either Charlo brother and he probably stays active for two or three years before retiring young.

I dont think i've ever seen a mexican boxer act in such a cowardly and undignified way in all the years i boxed or followed boxing......in a span of 12 months he has gone from i am not a 160 fighter ...i'm a 155 fighter ...from we mexicans don't f@ck around to handing over your belt rather than face your mandatory challenger and then this sham of a boxer openly admit his best weight is 160lb.....rooting for chavez jr to smash this manufactured ginger prick to pieces

Canelo will fight ggg when he is 40.

LMAO this clown admits he moved back to 154 to avoid GGG. I rememember all the canelo cum swallowers they know who they are kept saying canelo is a 154 lber and can make the weight easily. LOL

Cman man, it was only 1 pound... he never went above 155.. Ok so drop a pound and take Laras belt

After jumping up and down in weight. Cman man, it was only 1 pound... he never went above 155..

He already explained this before, lara had no business with a title that canelo lost to floyd... that might be right or not but thats the way he felt... But even back then i told you bro, canelo will fight at 154 again for a title, and he did... After jumping up and down in weight.

I don't understand. He can make 154 for Smith but not Lara? Why He already explained this before, lara had no business with a title that canelo lost to floyd... that might be right or not but thats the way he felt... But even back then i told you bro, canelo will fight at 154 again for a title, and he did...

From now on my weight will be 160, thats the weight we are working on and that should be the ideal weight... If anything this tells you he isnt looking to drain ggg, he could very well demand 157 or no fight just to have the advantage but he isnt... Why are you crying about this? He never said that was his ideal weight in the past , he is talking about the weight for present and future fights... and that isnt anything new, he already said before that the liam fight was his last fight at 154 and that he was heading to 160, how is this news?? But i get it , you dont hate him, you just dislike him doe... I don't understand. He can make 154 for Smith but not Lara? Why

Golovkin fans have got to be the most retarded fanbase. This is like when Ward said he could no longer make 168 after he moved up permanently to 175, these same retards said he couldn't make it when he offered the fight to Lil G. When fighters move up in weight they add muscle/weight retards. :dunce: Acording to some idiots here ward went to 175 cuz he was ducking ggg doe...

Well yea everyone knew that for like 2 years now.

In addition to stating that Golovkin will need to make concessions to make their highly anticipated fight a reality, Alvarez all but said the fight won’t happen at or even near the middleweight limit of 160 pounds, Golovkin’s preferred weight. Alvarez (46-1-1, 32 KOs) will defend the WBC middleweight title he won from Puerto Rico’s Miguel Cotto (40-5, 33 KOs) against former junior welterweight champion Amir Khan (31-3, 19 KOs) on May 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas (HBO Pay-Per-View). canelo-alvarez (7)_2 The maximum contract weight for the Cotto fight November 21 in Las Vegas was 155 pounds, the same as it is for the Alvarez-Khan fight. “I’m not a middleweight,” Alvarez told a group of reporters recently. “I’m a super welterweight. That’s my weight class. However, I wanted to fight this fight for some sort of title.” The 34-year-old Golovkin (35-0, 32 KOs), who knocked out overmatched Dominic Wade (18-1, 12 KOs) in the second round of their middleweight title fight Saturday night in Inglewood, California, has not weighed in at less than 158½ pounds for any of his 35 fights since the Kazakhstan native made his pro debut in May 2006. The 25-year-old Alvarez hasn’t weighed in at more than 155 pounds for any of the 48 fights he has had during his 10½-year pro career. “We’ve said it along, and that’s the misconception,” Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions’ vice president, said regarding Alvarez not being a true middleweight. “He’s a super welterweight. The only reason he became the middleweight champion is because he wanted to fight Miguel Cotto. Miguel Cotto put the conditions , as the champion, and that’s the reason. And won the title.” Alvarez obviously could give up the WBC middleweight title and continue fighting at 154 pounds, a weight he says he still has no issues making. He has instead followed Cotto’s controversial lead and opted to defend the 160-pound championship at 155 pounds. That has opened up the Mexican superstar to constant criticism, but Alvarez hasn’t allowed heavy scrutiny of his WBC middleweight championship reign to adversely affect him. “There’s always gonna be critics,” said Alvarez, who emphasized several times that his fight against Golovkin eventually will happen. “They say one thing and then they change their mind, and they say another thing. There’s always gonna be critics. But that means that you’re succeeding, when there’s critics.” Cholos about to have their balls in a twist

That was obvious since the 155 nonsense began... And the fact that he's heavier than Golovkin which is never repeated enough times. The whole catchweight demand was just their way of saying no to the fight. I said this for the Lara fight. He has a belt, 155 doe. Then he fights Smith at 154 for that belt. Canelos reputation is in the toilet.
