Canelo Gained or lost respect

[aldo5408]

What opponent???? lol he will duck GGG.

He can rematch cotto for millions and a threat you idiot gg I's irrelevant

[-MAKAVELLI-]

not only is he NOT fighting GGG or any legit MW, he's picking on a JWW that has looked like **** the last few times ive seen him

and if that's not bad enough, he's giving that sorry ass JWW a fat payday for doing nothing to earn it


yay Canelo

[TOBYLEE1]

The only way he gains respect back is fighting triple G

[-DSG-]

Indifferent. He's fighting for the biggest paydays like everybody else.

I've never seen anything this bad that was for a title and on ppv against a guy who was at his best 3 weight classes below where the fight will be taking place.

[goodvibes]

It's only one fight.. It's not even THAT bad of a fight honestly.

I'm cool with it as long as Canelo and GGG fight this Fall. Cause that's what everyone wants to see anyways.

[The Big Dunn]

How could fighting Khan gain any MW respect?

[NEETzsche]

ever since the lara fight i've been willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to taking challenges, but not any more. i have zero faith in him ever facing golovkin now. hopefully WBC strip him and get it over with

[sicko]

I don't know how the hell a Middleweight Champion can earn respect fighting a Welterweight but this is boxing in 2016 I guess

Khan should be admired for taking this match but not Canelo

[Deevel916]

Lost respect as he is fighting a WW but is refusing to let HIS MANDATORY IN HIS OWN WEIGHT DIVISION weigh in at the limit.

[Irony123]

Name wise it isn't a bad fight, but as established as Canelo is why reach 2 divisions down to get a fighter...

If you have gained respect for Canelo for making this fight, i wonder how you would feel if GGG made this fight... personally i would be extremely disappointed if GGG was across from Kahn come fight night. in fact i am sad to say this but Wade would be a better test for Canelo at middleweight than kahn would be. Wade is by no means a world beater but he is middleweight something Canelo is scared to face.
