Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: We're Not Going To 154 For Canelo

[RED REP]

Canelo is my favourite active fighter and I have to say he has fought at a middleweight catchweight for the last 3 fights. Canelo Vs. Golovkin has to happen at 160. Hopefully after Canelo beats Cotto for the WBC belt. Canelo should also fight at Jr Middle or full 160 middleweight. I love his style but I'm not a fan of this catchweight *****.

We'll fight anybody from 154 to 168....unless you're name is:

1. Andre Ward (doesn't make financial sense.)
2. Erislandy Lara (he's with Haymon, doe.)
3. Canelo Alvarez (needs to be at 160 or no dice.)

1. right now, it doesn't. fights needs to marinate. it will happen, though. i thought a member of floyd fan base (rockefelleres of the boxing world) would understand that.

2. as you pointed out, he indeed is with haymon.

3. nahh let's have a potential mw unification at the 156 limit

ya but to be fair he was coming off a long layoff

Ggg not drained at 154 for floyd but for canelo he will be drained? Team golovkin shook... B side take the fight or not or shut up

[Hype job]

If he can make 154 for Floyd then he can make 154 for Canelo. It would certainly be a big money fight that would make it worth his while.

GGG, Lomachenko, Kovalev got em shook

Ducking Canelo is not the way to build a legacy

[Jubei]

Catchweights suck, if he fought canelo it would be for the MW title, why fight below 160 for the middleweight championship? Makes zero sense. Canelo hasnt fought at 154 for some time, created his own weight class.

You're not the brightest candle on the cake huh?

Team Golovkin wanted to face Ward but Andre needs his tuneups first (go check, there are several interviews where Andre and his team admits that he isnt ready to face GGG and wants to have 2 tuneup fights to get back in shape), he cant even make 168, he is fighting at 172. He has been inactive for almost 2 years. He is not close to be ready to face GGG.

Canelo isn't ready for GGG either, his team said maybe sometime in the future once they move up to 160 they will face him. Also that fight would be for the 160 pound belts. There arent 155 pound belts.

Lara is a 154 pounder who keeps calling other fighters out when they or he has other fights lined up, he is a twitter warrior anyway and is needs to get at least a notable win at MW. Lara also has a boring style, has no fans except the 11 here at NSB. Also Loeffler said they should contact him if Lara is serious in wanting to face GGG, but Lara just talks **** on twitter instead of asking Daddy Al if he can fight GGG on HBO.

Seems i just owned the whole bunch of GGG haters.

[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

Canelo is more interested in fighting cotto not ggg but canelo loses to both fighters canelo is a bigger hype then ggg but at least ggg has beaten guys his size unlike canelo who has fought mostly bums shot fighter or 135 pounders who almost knocked him out in the first round
