Comments Thread For: Oscar De La Hoya: Canelo Will Eventually Fight Golovkin

[HanzGruber]

For the 155 belt orrrr?

I 100% believe Alvarez when he said this, which he has a couple times. I have no reason to doubt him, starting with the Trout fight he has fought everyone people want him to.

Me too. I'm dissapointed the Cotto fight didn't get made, but I believe Canelo believes he can whup anybody near his weight and that he'll mostly be right.

War Canelo!

Kirkland, Cotto and then Lemieux. I think a fight with GGG could happen in Sept. 2016. i can imagine 3G fighting a tune-up at 168 and Canelo then asking him to fight at a fucking 157-158lb CW. I would genuinely be surprised if GBP doesn't try and pull some slick ****.

By Sept 2016, GGG will be holding all MW titles and be the undisputed, unified Middleweight champion. Canelo will be in no position to make demands such as a catchweight. GGG will be the A side of any and all MW bouts once he has all the titles. If Canelo wants a shot at him, it will have to be without any BS catchweight.

saul alvarez along with cotto chavez jr & ward vying for the catchweight championship of the world

I'm not buying GBP's story. Canelo will be matched carefully after Kirkland and Cotto; he'll be fighting guys like Heiland and Johnson, then GBP will match Lemieux (who could be the IBF titlist by that point) against Canelo. The winner of that will face 3G. If not, i think GBP will throw Lemieux at GGG first, and then Canelo.

Who knows what will happen with the IBF and WBO belts. Those could easily be held hostage. It's not a guarantee that Lee fights GGG after his mandatory against Saunders, and Lemieux/N'Dam still hasn't been scheduled yet.

he said eventually, so he's assuming canelo beats kirkland and cotto which is great. i don't think we should expect them to start making a match up when his next two haven't even happened yet.

[Mr. Philadel]

I believe it...Nelo is young!!...eventually the fight will happen and I see Nelo beating GGG

[PRchamp]

The king of 155. This guy will wait till GGG moves up and then we will have to hear how he wanted to fight GGG all this time.
