      He weighs 170 on fight night, the same as golovkin. He's basically saying he doesn't want to fight ggg.

        GGG said he'd fight Mayweather at 154 so he should expect to go down to 155 for Canelo.

          155....90/10 split.

          Canelo knows what he's doing. He's the one pulling 2.2 mil, 900k, etc.

          Golovkin is the one doing 97k. Smart move by Canelo and his team. It's just common logic and math.

                  Golovkin is the one doing 97k. Smart move by Canelo and his team. It's just common logic and math.

                  And it worked for Golovkin with Ward.

                  You reap what you sow,

                  But to be fair, Canelo should defend at 160 or drop the belt.

                  It may not just be Golovkin who will have to cut weight to fight Canelo.

                  I understand if Canelo wants to make Golovkin wait until he is ready at 160, I got no problem with that at all..... but it is starting to become clear that Canelo has no intention of moving to middleweight.

                  First Hoya announces that Canelo's next opponent COULD be a JMW, then Warren confirms that they made an offer to Smith, now Canelo states that Golovkin still has to drop to 155.

                  Canelo will fight Golovkin, but he aint giving up any advantages, Golovkin will have to be the one who works for it.

                  Like you said, smart move by Canelo, they have learnt how the game works.

                  But the WBC are likely within their rights to strip Canelo now.

                  And they probably should, Canelo doesn't give a fk about the MW title.

                    If so, he should vacate the Ring belt also. Right?
