    157-158, GGG bends, signs, and it's good to go. I just don't see Canelo and Oscar not making the fight.

    GGG's disastrous PPV will always be a factor though
    GGG's PPV numbers weren't good but people know about him and add Canelo into the mix, it's a big fight.

    Also i can't see where else Canelo can go apart from GGG. 154 has no big fights for him unless Floyd comes back. He can't fight any other middleweights except GGG because nobody will swallow that.

    I think GGG is the only fight people will accept now and holding that belt means he's backed into a corner to fight him or look very bad by vacating, especially after his interview tonight.

        Canelo - this guy dares to be great, so if he takes on GGG in May and build it well hes got a chance, still think he needs a couple of fights at 160 against pressure fighters to improve his chances.

        He boxed well tonight, good upper body movement to avoid cottos traffic and threw the right hand well tonight, great performance and great win.

          I'm good with it.

          Canelo will fight anyone and he has the ability to beat anyone not named Mayweather.

            Great upper body movement. He's gonna need those non existent legs of his to back pedal all night. He's toast.

              ginger will price himself out of facing GGG. or will come up with some excuse
              no way in hell does he want to get in the same ring with GGG
              GGG will kill ginger.

              Ginger got outboxed by Mayweather, Lara and now Cotto.

              the decision tonight was made when Cotto refused to pay the 1.1 million bribery to the WBC

                i would love to see it but it won't happen before 2017 and there will be a catchweight involved. Canelo will wait till GGG starts slowing down and then bring him down a couple of pounds and dictate all the terms for a fight.

                  Totally agree, way I look at it is Canelo has proved so much already at 25 more so than GGG so win/loss it takes nothing away from him.
                  Its hard not to really admire Saul the guy just have really big cajones, If GGG could get the win over a top opponent like Canelo I'd say If he couldn't back up a following fight with Quillin/Jacobs winner or Andy Lee then he should cut his 160lbs stay short and then look to the guys at 168 but lets wait and see what happens.

                      To be fair I think a catchweight would still be fair, Canelo could easily make 160 though.
