    that if there is no BS on the weight like they did to kovalev. if they let arthur fight comfortable, as they should if they want the belts, then props to canelo.

      I thought Makadoodoo was fighting mandatory in early 2022 and if successful would fight Canelo in May?

        By the time Clenelo fights him he will legitimately be too old.

          He'll turn 37 in 35 days...he's already old for the sport but still game if it happens soon.

            lol @ makadoodoo. You might be right. I don't know what Canelo's plans are. I did hear he is thinking about fighting Beterbiev last week, but I don't now. Maybe he takes a small "keep busy" fight in the meantime? I think he still wants to fight at least four times a year.

              First get those 2 in the ring together, that will be the hardest part due to Team Canelo.

                Artur will be 37 in a month. If Canelo can get to him with the year it might not be the number that keeps coming up like if he was 38. Artur pushes all day which is his strength. Getting tagged clean early a few times by Canelo may slow him down, but maybe not. Artur only moves his head in and out, but he is good at it. It’s not the level of Canelo’s head movement. In fact nothing he does is as refined as Canelo, but that’s to be expected. If Artur wants to win, I expect he will have to absorb more from Canelo and hope Canelo can withstand less than he can. It’s a matter of if twelve rounds is a longer time to vs Beterbiev or Canelo?

                  If he beats him next he's an all time 10.

                    Are you ****ing insane? Is Canelo beats Artur he's in contention for one of the best to ever do it. Beiterbiev is a beast.

                    Threads like this imply that Canelo haters are great in number. They are a dying breed. Canelo is a ****ing stud, one of the best ever imo

                      Nope. Makabu fights the #4 ranked CW in boxrec on the 4th week of January. Plenty of time to fight in May.
