Comments Thread For: Canelo Plans To Be Around 180 For Makabu: This is a 50-50 Challenge!

[champion4ever]

Canelo is looking for legacy fights. If Benavidez didn't lose his belt twice outside the ring, he would already have had his shot (and his first defeat) against Canelo. Benavidez passes the eye test, but against who so far? Old Anthony Dirrell is who he hangs his hat on.

Well how could he, Charlo or Andrade prove themselves when all Alvarez does is make excuses by ducking them? Benaviez would walk him down and knock his ass out! When Benavidez was the WBC's 168 lbs titleholder Canelo avoided him. It wasn't until David lost his title on the scales that cowardly Alvarez decided to challenge for it once that WBC Super middleweight title became vacant. Y'all know I am right.

Thats how great Canelo is. He’s a favorite against a Cruiserweight Champion. A champion with a real belt.

You mean paper champion don't you?

That is the narrative you've decided to believe. You refuse to give Canelo credit for his accomplishments (the most impressive in the sport) because you simply don't like red-headed Mexicans. That narrative works for me.

You are correct the CW limit is still 200. My mistake. I thought I read something the other day saying it was going back down to 190.

You're not wrong. That is what has been publicized. Not sure how it will all shake out, but the WBC has announced that the new Cruiserweight limit (for them) will be 190, down from 200lbs. That means that Bridgerweight will be 190.1 - 224lbs. The WBC website still shows Cruiserweight as having a 200lb limit, however, so they do need to do a better job clarifying their new rules.

Why don't you give it a rest? Your guy is a cherry picker; Always has and always will. It's just that plain and simple. Didn't you know that he said fuck boxing fans in an earlier interview today? He said i don't fight fight for them. I fight for myself. I'll damned if I purchase another one of his pay per views.

Also, color, race, nationality and ethnicity has absolutely nothing to do with it.

First off, you have never purchased a Canelo PPV. Second, Canelo regularly (and astutely) acknowledges that you can NEVER please a hater, so why bother trying? Like Drago, he fights for himself, then his family, friends, his fans, etc. Way down on his list of people to give a fck about are internet trolls who aren't going to buy his fights anyway.

Oh, you don't like my narrative now? It's not based on facts?

Wrong! You shouldn't make presumptions sir! As a matter of fact, I've purchased multiple Canelo pay per view fights including: Mayweather, Golovkin I and Golovkin II. Also, I subscribed to DAZN because of Canelo. I was a fan of his once unlike you though but after GGG II he's changed.

He no longer wants to fight tough competitors. He breached his contract with DAZN and Golden Boy by refusing to give the fans and Golovkin a trilogy fight; Which was at the time the biggest money fight that could have been made and he turned it down just like he is turning down a David Benavidez fight.

At least when Mikey Garcia ducked Lomachenko he fought Erroll Spence. However, Canelo is ducking Benavidez to fight a tomato can who has already been knocked out several times before regardless that he is a champion in a heavier weight class.

The guy's an overmatched bum; Which is why Alvarez cherrypicked him. He sees no danger in this opponent none whatsoever.

No it's based on opinion.
