Why does Canelo fight at 155?

[Beercules]

but why is he doing it??


154.00001-160 IS MIDDLEWEIGHT

Exactly. So why does Canelo refuse to fight MW's? He was down to fight Cotto, should he and GGG get past their opponents I expect to see Golovkin Canelo.

Yes or no is 155 MW?

it is, but you being a lara fan shouldnt be crying about it when your boy has much more fights over the limit...
again canelo has 2 out of 50 and lara has 10 out of 24 and you complain about canelo...
nowadays is hard to find 1 fighter that has never done catch weights..

[Larry the boss]

I like Canelo but he has not been a jr middleweight since 2013

[-PBP-]

Because he can't make 154 but isn't ready to fight full fledged middleweights yet.

already told you, he is being lazy to go for the extra mile unless is a meaningful title.. is only one pound and he doesnt seem to struggle at all...

[MrRolltide91]

We all know why

Lara has a title and is willing to defend it at the proper weight. Why didn't Canelo want to grab Lara's title?

lara didnt care to make weight before having a title and canelo doesnt have one, you know the proper champion for that organism is floyd not lara, floyd got the title from canelo, laras title means very little...

Canelo does not want go to 160th street...That is were GGG lives.

here you go:
vs maslov 158, vs gross 154 1/2, vs gray 155, vs boone 155, vs varela 155, vs perez 155 1/2, vs brewer 154 1/2, vs correa 155, vs hearns 156 1/2,
vs canelo 155...
thats 10 fights out of 24, yet canelo has 2 out of almost 50 and you all come here to cry...

You went back to Lara's pro debut! Surely Lara made that big money decision then. Great recap on boxrec, which ALL WERE sanctioned in the US.

Canelo has the majority of his early padded record transcribed from shady sources in Mexico with limited accountability. Boxrec it.
