Canelo will announce his future opponent 7 weeks before the fight

[Madison Boxing]

hes got to get them PEDS benefits for as long as possible before the fight

[Smash]

ginger is like some puppet master with everyone looking at him wondering what hes going to do, he pulls the strings and they dance to his tune, they better be careful they dont want to anger the ginger one, they may get sent to purgatory and banished forever

Logical to give Bivol a short camp and drain him. Bivol hasn't had a knockout in 2018 or 2019. Also gives Canelo time to clear his system. Then again, WBC raised the drug limits for him.

the biggest fraud I have ever seen in boxing.

like always he gives the other side minimum time to prepare and make weight properly

and the main reason.......his PED cycle.

Does it really matter ? The fighters he is eyeing should be world class fighters and in the gym 24/7 at this point of their careers.

[QUOTE=PRINCEKOOL;n31304728]Yes along with exploiting the day before weigh in rule, weight draining himself to be the big man 'Which will eventually catch up with him'. I have noticed that announcing fights real late is one of his tricks.

Say what you want about Mayweather, but he gave all his opponents optimal time to prepare. I have never ever really seen a Mayweather opponent complain about how they were treated. Apart from fighters wanting wear certain gloves, at the end of the day a glove is a glove 'If you are good enough, you will wear any glove'.
I highly doubt a boxing glove will improve punching power, skills, endurance and creativity.

- - Yo, DunceFool, latter part of l'l Floydy career in his hometown stocked with his choice of refs and judges, he became the role model for TBA Deyonce, ie giving fighters 1-2 wk notice.

I highly doubt U minder know U need U Barney BigBoys changed.

In all fairness, If a fight gets announced seven weeks before, then the other side must at least have been in negotiations for a few weeks, so there’s no excuse why the opponent can’t have a good 8-10 week camp.

If their team are in negotiations and they’re not in the gym staying ready, then that’s their fault

On the flip side, I think Canelo is using things like this to time his PED cycles better. Probably don’t start stringent testing until the fight is signed officially, so gives himself more time to get it out of his system. He mistimed it when he got caught because the fight was signed too early and he wasn’t expecting the testers to go to Mexico for the first time.
