Breadman twitter response to Canelo going to Cruiser

[TreyShaw]

Idk how people are hating on this. He fought THE guy at middleweight. Then he went up and cleaned out all the supermiddle champs and beat Kovalev at light heavy (who at the time was still top 1-2 and many thought was a BIG ask). Now he’s going up to Cruiser to fight a champion there.

Who else that is currently active and above lightweight that has done as much as him? Not to mention starting at welter and going up to cruiserweight is a HUGE chasm in weight and well above his natural fighting weight.

I think we all know why there hating and it has nothing to do with boxing.

[Citizen Koba]

Makabu might not be the best cruiser out there and ain't on the level of a Dorticos or Breeds but he's an absolutely legit fighter with real power, and definitely a top 5 cruiser. Can't understand why anyone would fault this one.

[Floyd is TBE]

Breadman still buying into the narrative that Canelo has any interest in fighting these guys. It doesn't matter who fights who, Canelo is more interested in padding his legacy with meaningless achievements.

Munguía vs Andrade

Bivol vs Zurdo

Charlo vs Benavidez

Beterbiev vs Smith

Maybe we can get these fights now? instead of each fighter from 168-175 just waiting on Canelo.

True. These dudes waiting around for that Canelo lotto ticket. Canelo is right to bypass all of them so they can now fight each other.

[STREET CLEANER]

There are no fighters around 154-168 that has any momentum. They all fighting second tier fighter waiting for the phone to ring with an offer to fight Canelo. Let them fight amongst each other to make the match up more attractive. None of those fighters are in a collision course with Canelo besides just calling his name out. That jump to CW is huge even though it is not the best guy in the division but it is a big lefty fighter that can punch. GGG has done nothing and is older, Benavides can't even make the weight and I think the real challenges for Canelo is ant LHW.

LOL, they're hating because they were thinking Charlo was a shoo-in for Canelo next. LOL They were talking about Canelo/Charlo up next in Houston, on PBC PPV.

Canelo shut that sh.it down.

I'll post it here also

Canelo going to CW will not affect the futures of anyone from 160-175. If he does in fact go up, he will be completely out of those weight divisions. There is no more excuses as to why Charlo/Benavidez/Andrade and Bivol/Beterbiev/Zurdo/Smith should all not be fighting each other.

Explain how him going up will hold anything up? As far as I know, when you leave a division, you vacate those belts. So that shouldn't be an issue.

[Get em up]

Its slight of hand... Canelo gets approval for a fight at Cruiserweight and fights Charlo in Texas in May
