Comments Thread For: Staff Roundtable: Wisest choice for Canelo Alvarez's next foe?

[A.B Counterhooks]

Are you saying canelo didn't duck ggg for years? He literally fought amir khan instead of ggg and then dropped the belt when the wbc mandated the fight. Like I said deluded

Dude, they fought 3 fckin times!

Whats your point?

Canelo would prefer Benevidez eventually become p4p #1 than eat his own words by fighting a fellow Mexican.
Crawford is reminiscent of another Charlo circus, tarnishing his legacy.
Bivol won a close decision, there's no need to re-visit.

Beterbiev is Canelo's best option & opportunity to join Crawford & Inoue in the history books.
Other options could include Tim Tszyu at a catchweight. Tszyu would be a primed 30 year old looking to move up regardless.

Who has Golovkin beat? Everyone that would step up and fight him back in the day. Biggest names avoided him like the plague- Cotto, Felix Sturm, Sergio Martinez, Chris Eubank Jr all declined. Canelo indeed fought at Middleweight (155- Caneloweight) for two years avoiding a fight with Golovkin with Oscar making excuses and running cover for Canelo. Get over your GGG hate, LAchargers373, and show GG respect that he earned.

Earned by what? Chasing Floyd and Canelo? He waited till Hopkins and Pavlik moved up and Martinez and cotto (original 147 lb fighters) were literally on the last fight of their career to come to America and start trying to call them out. Dude was a eurobum can crusher who’s best in his career is David effin Lemieux lol. Ducked everyone, ward kovalev Lara to this day he still ducking Lara also dervychenko beat him down

Bivol has never been undisputed, never been unified champ, never been a champion in 2 division. Probably has never fought in 2 different division. He had to fight a smaller guy to boost his ego.

Don't forget that it was canelo who proposed the fight, don't forget that he let the rematch clause to expire, and don't forget bivol offered to fight at 168. He was not small when he fought kovalev and when you were claiming he will beat Usyk too.

He waited him out, he elected to give up his belt instead of defending it against ggg. He waited him out and you know this. Still lost and got the gift of a draw, especially from byrd, 118-111 the score

You Canelo Stans are angry because your boy thought he was cherry picking Bivol, but the redheaded Muppet turned out to be the actual cherry pick. Bivol won 10-2 and allowed Canelo to win two rounds so he wouldn't go home empty-handed. Same thing will happen in a rematch or worse. Canelo thought he was facing another Russian alcoholic who would take a dive. He thought wrong.

These Canelo Stans are amusing, aren't they?

As long as idiots keep buying his fights, it will be a bum. Dude's gonna retire in a few years then will be secretly recorded talking about how ****** his 'fans' are, and how he could literally put a tomato can in front of himself and those fools would still buy the fight.

[Boxing Scene]

He'll fight another bum.
