5 division chump. When was the last time he defended a title?

Two weeks ago.

You mean cherry picking another weak WC to pad his record while dodging the real killers? Business as usual but it will still make his fan boys cream.

Until you looked him up you had no clue who the boxer was. Why? Because you’re a casual. It’s cute and all that you just started following boxing last year and have created several alt accounts. Now run off to the Minecraft forums with your boyfriends. Boxing is not for you moisty millenial pumpkin ****e soy boys.

You know what I mean. Your punk redhead is chasing paper champs, and running away from the killers in 160/168. Hoping they fight each other so he will never have to face them. ****nelo The Red head Duckling.

What do you mean then? How is there another interpretation of him fighting Plant and defending his WBO, WBC and WBA belt?

Who are these killers at 160-168? Who are these new boogeymen?

Andre Ward never fought Calzaghe, Bivol or Beterbiev. So your point is moot.

How could Ward have fought Bivol or Beterbiev?? Different era completely, but politics permitting he beat everybody he possibly could at SMW before going up and getting rid of the real Krusher Kovalev, not the washed up version that Canelo faced two and a half years later - that's why he was considered P4P. Canelo is not doing that. Did he clean up MW or LHW? No, conveniently skipped them to target low lying fruit before settling in arguably the weakest division in boxing at SMW.

Because most fighters don't get to flee to Mexico so as to avoid the random drug testing. Because they don't have the money to buy a **** load of testosterone and doctors to administer through IVs. Or able to get busted for PEDs and have a built in excuse by blaming a toco stand down the street. They don't get to have the boxing industry bend over backward to avoid losing its cash cow.

Simple question gets a simple, honest answer. He's fighting a small cruiserweight who seemed to have retired from the sport, hasn't fought in two years. And he's going to bulk again to nearly 200 pounds, which is 32 pounds of muscle, in approximately five months.

Anyone with half a brain knows that this is totally ****ed up and corrupt.

Where are you getting 32 pounds? You are aware he walks around at almost 185 all the time right? He actually has to lose mass to fight the divisions he has been fighting in. Calm down Karen

Ok, maybe Calzhage was a different era, but how the hell are Beterbiev and Bivol a different era when Ward was fighting Kovalev at 175 in 2016 and 2017 and in those same years Bivol and Beterbiev were winning their championships? Not different era, they all could've fought each other. So no, he didn't clean out a division when there were two other guys in the same division with belts.

Bivol and Beterbeiv should've fought each other a long time ago, yet it's all on Canelo to be the one to face them. Ridiculous. Bivol and Beterbiev need to get their cowardly asses in the ring already.

I've already explained my position. It's too bad that you picked a fighter who went from trying to be the best after losing to Floyd, to picking only weak fighters and paperchamps after GGG. Now he is just a Red Head duckling.

You don't even know what defending a title means. There are no killers at 160-168. Charlo, Andrade and Benavidez are too cowardly to step up in competition to be considered "killers"

Well... nobody is attempting to do what Canelo is doing; yo yo'ing through the weights regularly because it is not physically possible without incurring injuries or damaging health. So... again the PED debate surrounding Canelo rears its ugly head again! Look man, there are numerous fighters trained by Reynoso who have now
popped dirty; Canelo, Óscar Valdez, Julio César Martínez, Andy Ruiz lost a bunch of weight in a short time after looking like a whale in his previous fight and Ryan Garcia suddenly returns from "mental health problems" looking more ripped than The Incredible Hulk.

Its plain black and white whats going on there!

Well, then there is no winning in boxing. Ever. Doesn't matter how great a fighter is, if you don't like him he's a cheater. Doesn't matter that you have not even a shred of evidence, the powers that be cover it up. Replace Canelo here with any other fighter and the statement remains the same. **** it everybody is on PEDs
