not quiet... but i agree title fights should be in full weightk, if GGG is going to 168 to take the tilte away from degale then it should be done at 168. If they aren't fighting for the title then catchweights could make sense (though personally i don't like catchweights) when a smaller guy and a bigger guy meet up.
Canelo situation is when a younger guy who is the same size is trying to drain an older guy for a championship belt in the same division that they both fight in... 155 doesn't exist.Comment

Don't be surprised if Golovkin/Saunders happens now that Wade/Haymon are looking to make a purse bid. I have a feeling K2/HBO would rather pay extra money to BJS and have the fight in London than pay extra money to try to keep the fight on HBO vs Showtime.
It's a similar scenario when Stevenson/Showtime stalled negotiations so that Hopkins would get stripped of his IBF title and allow Thomas Williams (Haymon fighter) to fight Mohammedi for the vacant belt. With just a few weeks before the purse bid deadline, Hopkins dropped the Stevenson unification and fought a unification vs Kovalev for the WBO.
By Rick Reeno - Back on July 2nd, BoxingScene.com ran an article where IBF/WBA light heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins (55-6-2, 32KOs) revealed his intention to face WBO champion Sergey Kovalev (25-0-1, 23KOs) in an HBO televised unification bout. Very few people took the article seriously. Almost everyone in the industry expected Hopkins to face WBC champion Adonis Stevenson (24-1, 20KOs) in the fall. For most of 2013, HBO was building up a unification fight between Kovalev and Stevenson. Earlier this year, Stevenson jumped ship to rival network Showtime, with the obvious goal of facing Hopkins, who at that point was exclusively fighting on their network. Kathy Duva of Main Events, who felt confident that she reached an agreement with promoter Yvon Michel for a Stevenson-Kovalev unification on HBO, filed a federal lawsuit against Michel, Stevenson, Showtime, Stevenson's manager Al Haymon and former Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer. Stevenson made his Showtime televised debut on May 24th, and won a twelve round unanimous decision over Andrzej Fonfara. At the time of the BoxingScene article, nearly six weeks after Stevenson's Showtime debut, Hopkins confirmed that not a single "serious" conversation had taken place to make a fall unification with Stevenson.Comment

Oh good, you again with the same argument. So let's keep it short.
No, I'm not afraid that DeGale will beat him.
And I didn't type that because I wasn't a member of NSB yet.Comment
