What is Oscar talking about?

Pacquiao started his Mexicutioner run at 25 years old.

Canelo has proven he's willing to fight the best unlike the coward Lil G who runs away from big fights

[doom_specialist]

Oscar and Canelo should be worrying about Cotto, and not speaking on future fights that have a chance of not happening.

That said, we already know that Canelo is no coward. Even still, Oscar isn't going to let Canelo near GGG any time soon. There's too much money to be made before that fight happens.

172 pound Canelo said he is too small to fight 168 pound GGG at 160.


Sounds like running to me Oscar.

Sounds like running to me Oscar.

The rehydration weight is irrelevant, Team Golovkin know that.

Canelo would fight Golovkin after a couple of camps at 160.

The weight is an issue at the moment and Canelo will not give way to GGG.

The weight is obviously an issue for Golovkin as well, he said that he can make 154 just over a week ago..... GGG could attempt to negotiate something closer to 160, but I doubt that he will.

It looks like this fight will happen down the track, if at all.

Every Day it Seems like De La Hoya/Canelo test run new excuse

This time it's that they have a line of fights.

Only one the fans want.
Only one is Canelo's mandatory
Only one is remotely competitive. Rios? WTF!

Canelo and Goldenboy are scared as ****.

Canelo has proven he's willing to fight the best unlike the coward Lil G who runs away from big fights

If GGG is so bad, such a Coward, then why is Canelo running scared?

You want to hide around everyone else. Deflect towards other fights.

Canelo going to look like a straight ***** if he vacates to duck GGG, but then continues to fight at MW.

Hell, he'll look like a ***** if he goes back to 154 where he hasn't fought at since Sep. 2013.

Heck, Canelo is just gonna look like a ***** if he doesn't fight GGG.

But sure, he is the next great Mexican boxer!

Duran?
Trinidad?
Chevez?

None would vacate to duck GGG.

Canelo can kiss that legacy goodbye.

Don't worry, GGG scared the crap out of other fighters too.

Why would he, Floyd is even scared of GGG. He should be, Floyd could hurt GGG if he let him hit him. Not with those paper hands.

Don't fret, I think it's unfair to ask Floyd to fight GGG.

It was a b**** move when Golovkin asked for a catchweight against Ward despite being willing to fight others at 168.

It is a b**** move should Cotto or Alvarez ask for a catchweight against Golovkin despite holding middleweight belts.

And I don't care which fighter you support these catchweights or are celebrating when these b**** moves prevent good fights from happening then you are a b****. Simple as.
