It looks like he may fight Yildrim to get the mandatory out of the way in February but who do you prefer to see him in against?
At 168:
GGG
Andrade
BJS
Plant
Benavidez
Charlo
At 160:
Spence
I know GGG, Charlo and Andrade fight at MW, but I don't think Canelo goes to 168 against them. They can all go up and fight him at 168.
Andrade or Charlo at 160. Enough of this ducking, he's been running from those two since 2014 now and I'm absolutely sick of it. Never seen anything so disgraceful in boxing history, those 2 shouldn't have to chase him through 3 weight divisions to get the fight they've deserved for so long.
Interesting post.
Do you feel that Canelo prevented Andrade from fighting other top fighters for the past 10 years?
This is Andrade's resume since 2011:
Keeler
Sulecki
Akavov
Kautondokwa
Fox
Culcay
Nelson
Pucheta
Rose
Martirosyan
F. Hernandez
Hloros
Cisneros
A. Hernandez
Saul Duran
Grady Brewer
Bell
Herrera
Also, do you feel that fighting absolute nobodies helps Andrade's stock and makes other fighters, fans, and journalists call for the best to fight him?
Secondly, do you think it was wise for Andrade to pull out of the Jermell Charlo fight in 2014?
Lastly, you say the fight must happen at 160, do you not feel that is weight draining Canelo? Or do you know that, and prefer Canelo to be weight drained so that Andrade can have an advantage?
canelo vs ggg is still the best fight out there for boyh fighters. they have unfinished business after the first two fights which were too close to call. even though i had ggg winning both i didnt feel like either was a robbery
Anyone who is under DAZN/Matchroom would be easy to make.
Charlo is PBC/Fox, that would take a lot of business meetings with different top brass.
Spence is too small and Canelo would really hurt himself going down to 160.
The easiest fights to make would be GGG, Plant, Bivol, or BJS. These guys are all Matchroom and fight on DAZN.
He has the IBF title at 168 though doesn’t he?
Canelo has no promotional or network deal, he can fight whoever he wants. It won't be that difficult to make a fight with Charlo or Plant or Benavidez.
I'd prefer canelo vs plant or bjs. Styles make fights n I'm getting tired of canelo fighting people who just stand there and trade with him .if he's gonna be remembered as an ATG then he's gonna have to go back to fighting the type of people that gave him nightmares and his losses.

GGG is a bigger fight at middleweight than it is at super middleweight, though.
Super middleweight titles on the line: Canelo's WBA Super, WBC, and The Ring
vs Middleweight: Canelo's Lineal, WBA Super, WBC Franchise, The Ring and Golovkin's IBF and IBO
Two belts and a Ring belt at 168 or the lineal title, three belts, a Ring belt, and a minor belt at 160.
Golovkin never got to be lineal champion because of the robberies in the first two fights. He deserves that shot at 160, even if Canelo would be the favorite this time.
It’s crazy because Sanchez was fired for admitting GGG lost and some of his fangirls still won’t admit that. Sanchez was by far GGG’s biggest fan and even he admitted when enough is enough. He couldn’t lie to the public anymore and said Canelo won. That of course strained their working relationship and he got fired.
