    Comments Thread For: The Beltline: Are Canelo Alvarez, Tim Tszyu and Carl Froch the only men in boxing whose hands cannot be held?

    Hands are important in boxing. Curled into fists, then toughened in the gym, they are protected by hand wraps and gloves before being used on fight night to cause grievous bodily harm. They do damage. They settle disputes. They decide things. They also carry power pre-fight, when two hands shake on a deal, and post-fight, when two hands shake to demonstrate there are no hard feelings.

    Canelo isn't refusing to work with the guy because of 'principles'. It's because Canelo wants to face guys like Charlo and Berlanga and the Saudis want him to face the best.

      Worsell is one of the best boxing writers in the business and one of the very few who isn’t a shill.

            Best article on this site ,on this subject in many months . If the Saudi ‘s are losing money why are they doing this ? The love of boxing ? They want full control and eventually the sport as we know it will be dead.All for a handful of good fights and Money .

              Ginger hasn't refused to work with Turki, he simply said that he would be open to negotiate after his Sept 14th bout, but Turki felt insulted because Ginger wouldn't kiss his butt and drop everything for him. Let me ask you, why couldn't Turki simply agree to negotiate with Ginger after his Sept.14th bout? Seems fair and easy enough.

                Keep in mind Canelo hasn't said anything about 'principles' he just said it was the wrong approach from Turki wanting him to meet in person to negotiate a Crawford fight whilst having an scheduled opponent already, in the middle of press conferences and about to start camp. As far as Im aware Turki hasnt offered Benavidez fight yet, just Crawford for now, a fight that many consider a mismatch cause the difference in weight. So im not so sure if TC would 'the best' for Canelo competitively speaking at least cause we know they'll do great financially.

                  **** Canelo. He always cheated to get where he is. The guy hasn't knocked out a legit boxer in years

                    We love the best fights made and thank Turki. We also don't want a dictator though, not saying he is.
