    You know you could do that with literally every top great fighter watch.....

    Floyd v Tyszyu Floyd never wanted it
    Floyd V Mosley LW Floyd waited till he as old
    Floyd v Marg we all know that story Floyd ducked him like the platue.
    Floyd vs P Williams Floyd said no way.
    Floyd v Pac waited forever to face him didn't feel comfortable until JMM knocked him out.
    Floyd v Canelo at 160 non rehydration Floyd said no thank you when Canelo offered it.

    Seee very easy to do.

      GGG was 35 the first time he fought him. Canelo was doing that, I cant make 154 but Im not a true 160 so 155 is my weight class bullchit for a while. Fighting Cotto at 155 for his middleweight belt was ******ed.

      Still in the grand scheme of things, he only delayed the GGG fight by a year or two.

      Charlos never did much so I dont care about them. David though, the time is NOW for canelo to fight him, he has racked up good wins and shown himself to be the biggest challenge at 168, there is no one left even close, so if canelo doesnt fight him next its a blatant duck.

            To be frank I've heard of people he should fight I didn't know too much about them, but soon after Nell is fighting them.
            I mean years and years ago I heard name bivol pop up. Nel o didn't fight him straight away. Years had gone past then when Nell did fight bivo l it was a cherry pick?

              Golovkin is the only guy he legitimately avoided, they waited GGG out. GBP timed that fight perfectly.

                Funny how 35 year old GGG is old and out of his prime, but Benavidez fighting 35 year old Andrade was the greatest thing since Ali/Frazier.
                The Charlos are garbage, what Canelo did to Jermell, he would've done to both of them at any weight class.
                Andrade is "a horrible" fighter as Canelo put it, and a quitter.
                Beterbiev and Bivol should've had a unification fight since 2018, but they get a pass, Canelo on the other hand, nah, let's give him sh.it for it.

                  No one is giving them a pass. We all want that fight. And Canelo gets more flack, and rightfully so, because he can make whatever fight he wants, whenever he wants. So it doesn't look good when he downplays certain fighters and says **** like "I'm the king, I can do whatever I want."

                    Lmao what is this?

                    It is well known that Charlo turned down a fight with Canelo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rxx2...ature=********)

                    Jermell was not a player at the time and Canelo beat him when he was at his highest (undisputed coming off a career best win).

                    He never did fight Boo Boo. You can maybe say this is the one he didnt take but Andrade also never forced the issue or beat anyone of note to suggest that he should take this fight. Canelo was beating everyone at 154 while Andrade was struggling with Vanes Martirosyan.

                    How did he duck Beterbiev? I love Arthur but the dude fights once a year and is unifying the titles at 175. Canelo (as seen by the Bicol fight) is not a good fit at 175 and no one was ever calling for that fight.

                    Bivol? Bivol went back and forth about whether he would fight at 168, if anything Canelo was giving him the upper hand by demanding the fight be at Bivol's natural division.

                    This is a dog **** list. The only one I agree with is GGG. I think Canelo did wait too long to fight him but still lost that first fight. Besides that, Canelo has fought everyone people wanted, particularly at 154.

                      But he did eventually fight him. I just don't buy that Canelo is a fighter that avoids tough fights all together. If anything his track record shows otherwise.
