I'm a huge Canelo fan, but I'll be first in line to say Canelo vs Munguia is absolute GARBAGE. Let's hope it does NOT happen.
I do not want to see this fight. It sucks, it's not above the other more interesting bouts available and should be plan E if all the other fights fall through. We are running out of time to book a fight for September so I'm hoping they don't just fight this kid. We need to push back against this fight from happening.
I will not be a GGG fan and defend this fight like they did. Shameless biiitches.
All I want to see is Canelo and Triple G beating Andrade and Charlo like I know they can. Then fighting a third fight to complete an awesome trilogy.
Looks like the Kova fight fell through after the offer was rejected and since we're crunched for time, this fight is becoming a possibility.
You think extremely highly of Canelo if you see no risk in Munguia. I’d say you’re quite the Canelo fan.
It's always a risk, in this case we know who's going to win, barring an injury there's no risk whatsoever that ginger would lose the fight. The other variant is if munguia's chin holds up, it will be interesting to see how it develops. Not watching though, not throwing away my money nor my time. You assuming that I think highly of canelo, it could be that I don't have much hope for the competition. Take your pick the result is going to be same. I know you were sarcastic.
There's no risk for canelo, none. You want risk? benavidez or Morell JR. You know he is going to get flattened that's why you're so happy, ginger is not fighting a monster nor a true SMW contender, the kid has no defense and is a come-forward face-first type of fighter, tailored made for canelo.

David is very entertaining to watch compared to canelo who is slow as shieet, fast hands and decent power But his biggest flaws are his defense and his stance
His defense is actually very good. Plant and Andrade barely landed clean, and he is 5th on compubox for lowest opponent power punch % connect. Apparently most people can't tell the difference between blocked and landed punches. David rarely hit clean.
Dervyachenko puts up a fight, Benavidez absolutely clobbers all of them
Dervyachenko would put up a fight for 1 round. He is a 5'7 middleweight. Mungia hits no where near as hard as Benavidez, who is very naturally heavy handed.
Canelo should fight Benavidez, plain and simple, let’s get that out the way.
But Canelo-Munguia is an excellent fight and pretty damn high risk for Canelo.
I don’t think some fans understand that Canelo is no longer in his prime, looks on the decline with every fight, has a bad hand, and has enough stamina to begin with.
This will not be an easy fight at all. It’s certainly not a “garbage” fight. Munguia, due to his age, activity, size, and stamina, had a really good shot at outworking Canelo in a war.
Many of you will be surprised at the size difference in the ring. Munguia is going to be massive on fight night and it’s going to be more difficult than the Callum Smith and Sergey Kovalev fights because Munguia is a machine who throws a lot and throws hard, but also has a good chin.
Ya’ll should all calm down and wait til fight night. It’s going to be a war and Canelo has his work cut out for him.

lmao. Thanks for the laugh. I'm sure Dennis Hogan, Liam Smith, Rosado and 37 year old Devchenko, Takeshi Inoue, would go the distance with Benavidez right?
Benavidez is a flat-footed squared-up pressure fighter, constantly round after round which also mentally tax an opponent along with this size. I'm not sure Munguia is a pure pressure fighter, is almost a low IQ cross between spots of intense pressure, throwing punches at the same speed which allows some adjustment to his type of pressure to points of uneducated bouncing in and out of the pocket trying to box which extend a fight. Hence you have a better chance of 12 with Munguia than Benavidez.
Benavidez is faster but Munguía punches harder

Ok that's even worse. He drained him down to 164.
After your first response I thought you were just shooting off your mouth but with this one I realize you're nuts.
I don’t like it but I completely understand.
Canelo just fought Jacobs so he deserves an easier type fight. It’s not like munguia is Steve rolls or Brandon adams
It's just as ****ing bad. Are you high?
IDGAF what he felt obligated to and secondly that's just your opinion. The fact is he fought GGG twice. Once was after a year lay off and knee surgery. GGG took 9 months off and dragged Rolls up to 164.
Rolls fought as a Middleweight SM and LH his whole pro career. Try and get your facts straight.

Try and get your facts straight. Rolls fought from SM to Middleweight his entire pro career. He's fought as high as LH.
Ehh..I mean..since theyve fought Canelo has secured a 168 “title” and fought Jacobs. GGG fought Rolls. Most people give the benefit of the doubt when you give em what they want. We all wanted jacobs and many didnt think itd happen so soon so now everyone is more willing to accept an ehh fight coming off a tough/hard one.
GGG doesnt have a history of big fights so people see it as him having this bigger profile now and want to see him get the best available. It’s a double standard for sure but thats what happens when you put yourself out there at least once a year in a tough fight.
Serious questions my friend...how tough is any fight when you know you are going to get the decision when it goes 12 rounds...when you call all the shots as the A side and can control venue/weight/when you fight a guy (Mosley Cotto etc).
I don't really hate on Canelo but other than Lara and GGG I've never seen really any big test...maybe Jacobs... and again he knows if he goes 12 he will get the best decision possible so that's never really a big risk ya know.
GGG also took on Jacobs before Canelo...and would have fought Jacobs Canelo and Canelo again in 3 fights had that test for clen not come in...I do agree that GGG is playing the business man role now though...
But I'm glad he is being smart about it at least...the people who don't like him would just assume see him fight the top guys one night after the other...he has had a great career and earned the right to be smart imo...I would like to see him in with the top guys around 160 and 168 though.
Also from how easily and similarly Canelo and GGG dispatched of Fielding and Rolls....and considering how closely GGG and Canelo fought each other...it's hard to really make a big distinction between Rolls and Fielding imo man.
I see you conveniently left out Cotto and the fact that Smith was for a 154 title and Khan was at 155.
To
Before Jacobs, GGG fought Kell Brook, Dominic Wade, Lemiuex, and Willie Monroe Jr.
GGG fans cannot talk about any other fighters resume. That should be the last thing y'all talk about
I mean...Cotto wasn't really Cotto then though ya know.
Wade was low level but those other 3 guys you listed for GGG are all good to really good fighters...all different styles...and he KOd all 3 and lost maybe 2 rounds in all 3 fights...some of the over the top criticism of GGG's resume seems strange to me man.
Just seems likes a talking point to try and diminish him...his resume is as strong as any active fighter...probably the best right now honestly...people talking about Pac as FOTD...he has like no good wins in this decade and a few bad/clear losses lol...idk I just don't really understand some people's analysis of fighters/resumes I guess man
... sounding like a broken record might be rather sad...
? I was genuinely curious why you asked that question before...as far as I could tell there was no hidden reason behind those fights for Canelo other than they were medium reward low risk fights...no real issue with it for me...that's the perks of being the A side...but yeah just not sure what your original post was in reference to...or this one either tbh ;0...I don't really hate on Canelo at all so not sure what this post means..
Well the only good thing is it would take away the easy fight from GGG.
GGG would then be left with Charlo/Andrade and would be cornered into facing one of them or else looking really really bad fighting another nobody.
Absolutely! Because we all know this would be an easy cherrypick which he’s known for

Looks like the Kova fight fell through after the offer was rejected and since we're crunched for time, this fight is becoming a possibility.Don't try to act so noble. You only started this thread to trash GGG fans for supporting the GGG vs Munguia fight. I did not read any posts from GGG fans supporting him fighting Munguia and as a GGG fan I never supported it and thought it was a mismatch and a certain easy win for GGG. If GGG can't fight Canelo I want him to fight a champion to try become a champion. That would mean fighting Andrade, Jermall, Callum Smith or Saunders. You are a big time GGG hater spewing hate on him and his fans every chance you get and starting threads like this one to hate on him so more. You are annoying as hell. I'll bet you all my points that Canelo loses his next fight if he fights Kovalev or GGG. Let me know if you want to bet. I'd bet cash if I could. I will be betting cash against him if ether of those fights happen. He showed signs of going down hill to me in the Jacobs fight and I think his time for a loss is coming in September unless he lands the Mnguia cherrypick.
