Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer To Golovkin: Come To 155, We'll Fight!

[doninlouisiana]

Its very simple, either Canelo defends within WBC rules which state the limit for that belt is 160 not 155 or he will be stripped. Then when he feels like challenging for any of the MW titles he must go through Golovkin. I expect Canelo to be stripped before Christmas if not sooner.

[SplitSecond]

except for the fact ggg said to ward 164. does ggg want big fights or a belt collection? canelo didnt even want to fight for the 160 belt for this very reason cause he had no intention of fighting at 160 yet

So what's Canelo's plans? Campaign at 155-156 fighting light middleweights?

That's sad.

canelo will vacate that title regardless. it seems ggg would rather hold a belt collection then to actually fight a live fighter. whose next? andy lee? oh gee the same andy lee that got knocked out by chavez im sooooo excited. or ggg could call canelo bluff fight him at 155 and become a superstar. honestly tho his whole fight for the belts thing seems to be an excuse for things when convenient cause he sure as hell seems to want to fight every name at 168 not named ward.

the second a middleweight champion asks another middleweight champion to fight him at 155 lbs, he should be stripped of the belt

canelo is embarrassing

[bigfo0t]

he has one of the best resumes in boxing, all because of his "face all challengers" attitude.

He used to have that kind of attitude and I respected him for it, but now he has hit a brick wall with GGG. He is becoming more and more like the guy he just fought and made fun of for being a diva.

He's been champ for a few days, how exactly is he holding it hostage?

Holding the lineal 160 MW belt and demanding his mando drain down to 155 (for a unification )

JUST FIGHT AT 160 FFS. THERE IS NO CANOLAWEIGHT.
(He still has time to make an official decision, but this is not a good look)

Wasn't GGG willing to drop to 154 for a big money fight comfortably, why not drop to whatever catch weight Canelo wants for a massive pay day, easy fight and the belt his team so desperately seeks? Talk about hypocrites.

I never addressed this but the DIFFERENCE here that everyone who keeps bringing this up apparently fails to understand is that Canelo now holds the LINEAL 160 MW BELT. NONE of the other catchweight fight offers had a belt on the line (especially one that GGG needs to achieve his goals). GGG wants to be UNDISPUTED at 160. How hard is that to understand.

Floyd would have fcked GGG at the table. He would have made 1-2 million tops and made him weigh in at 154

I know right? Talking about 10-20 million. _Maxi is one of the worst posters we have here. Just flat out clueless.

who knows but it dont really matter as far as the ggg canelo fight goes. i honestly dont get why people think this is so crazy why wouldnt he ask ggg to come down to 155? i dont think canelo cares if its for the belt or not. honestly by team ggg actions their whole unify at 160 seems to be used as an excuse with all the step aside money they take and trying to fight everyone at 168 not named ward i mean its pretty clear its just used as a ploy rather then anythin else.

the thing people are ignoring is that whether canelo fights ggg or not he is going to vacate the title

Straight idiot. I've heard them say Floyd vs GGG sells more than Floyd-Pac

I think all that talk went quiet after the 97k number rolled in.

This is ridiculous of Canelo. Perhaps a CW might be ok when you've moved up 6 divisions already, but 160 is near Canelos weight already. Does Canelo want credit for beating GGG, nobody else has asked for a CW to fight GGG, except from Floyd, who doesn't even want to really fight GGG at any weight.

Its ok for Floyd to ask for a CW because hes trying to protect his zero and people already know Floyd never takes any risks. But Canelo has already lost before, so he might as well fight GGG at 160, he don't want to be known for not being a risk taker like Floyd. Whats the worse thing that can happen......lose maybe? But again hes lost before already.
