Won't Canelo have to make a decision this week?

[Dr Rumack]

the difference is, Canelo will stay a cash cow, all the rest of big names from 154-160 will be available for him and he'll get a shot at the WBC belt again whenever he damn pleases, meanwhile GGG will be out of options again and fighting more nobodies for peanuts as usual

Golovkin isn't earning peanuts any more.

Because a catch weight is needed in order to make that fight happen. Same with Gi Gi and Ward, he requested the fight take place at a 164 pound catch weight. After saying anyone from 154-168 can get that work.

Actually CW's are for 2 fighters fighting 1 weight class apart. Its to even out the playing field. GGG and Canelo are both in the same weight class.

Canelo looked like a SMW on fight night. Why he chooses to drain himself down to 155 only to pack on 15-20lbs over night is beyond me.

I though the WBC said he has 15 days to agree to fight GGG or vacate? or have they backtracked? or have i missed something?

If so, it means he basically has this week to do something.

The WBC is corrupt. Remember what they did to Segio? Please.
Canelo is Mexican. He is cash cow. WBC will not enforce anything.

[Dr Rumack]

WBC in August: "The winner must fight Gennady Golovkin then (after that) they can do whatever they want"

WBC in November: "There is no disadvantage in doing a doubleheader"

WBC in December: "Por favor, quien es golovkeen senor?"

[Larry the boss]

ggg should just accept the catchweight and stop acting like he has any bargaining power. Canelo is the a-side here. Period

what can he do? Get canelo stripped? So he can win the wbc belt in an office instead of a ring like a proper champ? Honestly, he'll look like a ***** if he does this

meanwhile, he'll lose a career high payday, all the exposure from beating ginger and the only megafight available for him

ggg must take this fight or he'll look like an idiot, if he's a great as we think he is, he should be able to beat catchnelo even at 155. He was confident on beating floyd at 154 after all

end thread^^^^^^

Let's see if the WBC gives him a pass. They are trying to change on the surface but they clearly love their Mexican champions.

The WBC, like all sanctioning bodies, loves whichever fighter makes them the most money. Alvarez provides a hell of a lot more money to the WBC than Golovkin. Therefore, the WBC will continue to allow Alvarez to do whatever the hell he wants, just as they did when he fought at 154.

Here you go, lad.

Congratulations, 20 months after Carl Froch's last fight, he's stated that he was willing to come back to fight at 172lbs.

Funny how you've actively ignored the other part of the query, figuring out how long ago K2 was chasing the Froch fight at 168.

My guess is that the initial discussion happened about a year ago, when Froch was still less than 8 months removed from being primed to fight.

better luck next time.

lol. The big bucks are really going to be rolling in for Golovkin vs Tureano Johnson.

He got $1.5 mil for Willie Monroe.
