Comments Thread For: Canelo's Coach: Let's Get Plant Deal Done - Then I Like Charlo, Spence, Benavidez

[Oldskoolg]

LOL the fact that people still think canelo is looking for easy fight makes no sense to me. He's clearly fighting the best available, that makes sense. He said his desire was to clean 168, which he's one fight from doing, then he's going after the best remaining, which include Charlo, regardless of his last performance

I take it you’re emotionally invested in Canelo by your statement. I’ll simply ask you this, as a junior middle, a middleweight, and up until this last Charlo fight, dis Canelo ever profess an interest in fighting him? Was Charlo not his mandatory at middleweight?

To be honest, don't totally recall when Charlo was mando, but wasn't that when he moves up to fight GGG? If so, who's the much harder fight? You can't claim "he's ducking" when he's fighting a much tougher fight.

Clenelo scared of Andrade tho!!! he's never fighting Benavidez and Bivol

[_Rexy_]

Spence?? At 168??

Spence?? At 168??

He ain’t built like Duran and SRL. “Lol”

[champion4ever]

I just love that wish list. Now those are the type of fights that boxing fans would like to see. Unless you are a fanboy of his; We don't like seeing Canelo in against over matched opponents all the time. Also, what's so good about it is that Canelo said that he is even willing to cut down in weight in order to make the Jermall Charlo fight happen.

Nah Spence could be big if he wants to. Industry knows how much Spence drains and camps to make 147. He’s at the threshold. He could easily fight at 154-160. Spence doesn’t have to be thin just because he looks thin at 147. He can just bulk up and get loose the way Duran and SRL did up to 168. Besides, Spence said he’d go to 160 for Canelo for the last 2-3 years. 164 would be fair. Duran and SRL fought at 168. Spence bigger than both of them

Bruh SRL was 5'11" and Spence is only 5'9.5"

Its misleading to say Spence is bigger than SRL.

How many welterweights have been thay tall or taller?

Only SRL, Paul Williams, Tommy Hearns, who else?

Even Oscar Delayahoya was only 5'10" I think.

Spence? You can’t be serious. I’m sure that Andrade would be a much better option stylistically wise.

Who knows? With the proper fitness and nourishment Spence probably could make a 168 lbs safely. We already know that he is an extremely large welterweight.

Not surprised at all there's no Beterbiev in that sentence and not surprised at all they'll try to drag Spence up to some ****ty weight to fight him. Typical redballs, will pull people up from 3 weight classes below him but not move up to 175 where he actually won a belt.

No, Canelo is a fight that Spence wants. He just called him out recently. I believe that a catchweight of a 164 lbs would be fair.
