    Without a doubt GGG, should fight the top fighters available to create an interest in a 3rd fight between them.
    I didn't think Canelo won either of their fights, and in the second fight in which he actually fought with GGG,
    he was beat up like never before, or since.
    As a result 3 years have past since their last fight, and Canelo has been waiting for GGG, to get older and slower.
    It is unfortunate because it was the hottest, and most anticipated fight that could've been made at that time.
    Now Canelo is looking at having to fight younger GGG's, like Charlo, Benavidez, Beterbieve, Andrade, and in 2023,
    possibly Berlanga, and Morrell.
    All of the aforementioned fighters have a good chance of beating Saul Canelo Alvarez, they box better, and hit harder
    than his past few opponents.

      Maybe if GGG would fight a top named fighter instead of fighting a bunch of nobodies then the possibility of a 3rd fight would be much more interesting. Canelo keeps challenging himself while GGG refuses to challenge himself. GGG does not and has not earned a 3rd fight with Canelo, frankly he does not deserve a fight with any top fighters all one has to do is look at his competition and lack of fights since the 2nd Canelo fight. A gift decision in a fight against Derev'yanchenko, a fight he got beaten up badly. Two other fights against a couple of nobodies and now he wants to fight Murata, an average (at best) fighter. Plus since 2019 he has only fought 3x times compared to Alvarez's 6x. Finally, ALvarez's 6 fights were against much, much more superior fighters.
      He's pushing 40 bro, the way I see it, he's saving himself for one last go at nelo but nelo isn't budging, and really he shouldn't have to earn another fight against nelo, he beat him twice hands down imo and many others, nelo should want this fight so there's no question marks on his legacy, he will beat him this time out so what's the point in not fighting him?

        You say Andrade has been trying but that's just hearsay. Also, very convenient that you again don't answer questions posed to you. I asked do you think Andrade is better than GGG and you couldn't even answer me straight.

        He wants BJS and Canelo? Both guys are fighting at 168 AND have been fighting at 168 for some time.

        Is Andrade fighting at 168? NO So DO TELL me how he is wanting those fights so bad when the guy doesn't even fight in that division.

        So tell me how he wants those guys so bad but isnt even fighting in the same division as them. Do tell.

        And THEN you complain about GGGs opponent selection.

        WHO HAS ANDRADE FOUGHT IN THAT TIME? How about all of his 160lb opponents?

        You wanna brag about these names?

        Liam Williams
        Luke Keeler
        Maciej Sulucki
        Artur Akavov
        Walter kautondokwa

        We're ANY of these dudes MW Champions? Please do tell. Please do.

        Looks like someone has a bastardized double standard here doesn't it? Acting like Andrade is some real killer who only fights MW Champions and wants the best when in reality, he's worse than the imaginary GGG you pretend GGG is.

        I'm all for the fight and I think GGG will still win. Why don't you ask Andrade what the hold up is? Maybe this time he'll decide to fight a top 20 guy and look unremarkable again. Then after he can brag how everyone is avoiding him LMFAO [/QUOTE]

        Was Canelo and BJS fighting @ 168, when Andrade signed to MatchRoom? NO! Did Andrade have a fight signed for BJS @ 160? What happened? Does GGG want to fight Canelo a 3rd time? Is he fighting @ 168? NO! Didn't Canelo say he would rather fight Charlo? Is Charlo fighting @ 168? NO! We'll find out if GGG is better than Andrade, if GGG does what he should and MAN UP! Eddie Hearn wants GGG vs. Andrade! Andrade wants GGG vs. Andrade! Only GGG is talking about Murata! We know who the problem is, and it's not Andrade!

          he knows hed look like crap again against golvokin even coming up to 40. canelo has found his niche at 168, beating up mediocre fighters he looks like a million dollars.

            Golovkin obviously just making easy $$ fighting relative nobodies, avoiding any real challenges, and hoping that for some reason Canelo is going to hand him The Golden Ticket.

            Just dashed all his hopes didn't he?!

            Looks like Tokyo, New year's Eve now!!

              I have yet to hear anything from GGG about this so who cares. Fcuk that roid raging f-a-git clenelo and his yes men fanbase. Of course nelo wants charlo cause he looked like dogsh-it his last fight and he has to move up.

                By "his niche" do you mean to say "reigning world champions?" Check Canelo's resume then compare it to any other active fighter not named Manny Pacquiao and see how it rates.

                  Not a mystery why cheater clenelo ducks top tier fighters. Clenelo has fought 3 elite fighters his entire career: Mayweather-LOSS Lara-DRAW Golovkin-LOSS Golovkin 2-DRAW. Plant and Charlo are no hopers they will be 15-1 underdogs.

Based on recent form, however, Canelo would be a clear favorite to win a 3rd fight between them. I have massive respect for GGG and would definitely pay to see that fight, but anybody who thinks Canelo is afraid of GGG is just silly.
                    Right now against an old Golovkin, maybe, but he lost the 2 first fights.

                      Eh, that's a bit of a stretch.
