Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez - WBC Approves Request To Next Challenge Makabu For Cruiserweight Title

Hopefully these fighters at 160-175 can fight each other

Seems pointless. Canelo could find better sparring partners than Makabu. It would be more entertaining if he challenged Bellew.

If they had to pay a washed up Kovalev to pull his punches and take a dive at 175, we all know what to expect. Don't pay your hard earned money for a fake fight people.

Take a dive? Really? The man got rocked unconscious but meh dive….run off to the Roblox forums or something. Your emotions are obviously uncontrollable and hatred for a man you’ve never met daring to be great. This is monumental news and once in a lifetime seeing something like this in our sport. But I know for casuals hate comes before swing greatness.

This has all the red flags … that the WBC are trying to goad Canelo to their made up bridgerweight division to legitimise it

I hope everyone calls it out if it happens

Interesting post.

This fight shouldn’t be difficult for Canelo to win knowing what we know about Makuba. Winning a belt in a 5th weight class would be a nice feather in Canelo’s hat.

Only Canelo and maybe Usyk can legitimize that new division. A fight between them at 225 would really give the division some legitimacy.

I think this post should be revisited down the road.

another slow stiff easy to hit fighter who will just walk straight into what canelo throws. i dont give a **** if hes cruiser, heavyweight or whatever, hes no good. tony bellew stopped him too

[Nightfall]

Gotta keep ducking Charlo doe!!!

[Oldskoolg]

Why not Mariusz Breidis?

[aboutfkntime]

Can this guy keep cherry picking the way he does and still be considered the best Mexican of all time? The 168 division was one of the weakest of all weight classes. Does it really matter if he wins every weight class by fighting his 75 year old uncle Pablo?

silly whiney cvnt

HOW does he add a extra 30-40 pounds to his short frame WTF

Gonna gas in under 3 rounds.

Career suicide or if he pulls it off the GOAT?

he wont weight 200lb... if he does, he will probably lose

he needs to win that fight as the smaller man, like Usyk just did

his speed/endurance will be crucial

Obviously you are not a fan of Alvarez so why do you give a 5hlt what he does with his career or who he fights? or what casuals think?

Just don't watch his fights until he fights someone you like. You can watch the Westminster dog show until Alvarez fights someone on your list.

I’m a boxing fan who wants to see the best fights be made, not this nonsense. Unlike you groupies who will celebrate and defend anything canelo does, I haven’t paid a dollar to watch a canelo fight in over 3 years so I won’t be supporting it. If you’re thrilled with it, go on and spend your minimum wage salary on it and stay out of my business ya bozo.
