    Exactly so why is GGG's team b*tching so much? The general consensus is that he's the man at middleweight so why is there endless whining from his camp day in and day out? Because they couldn't give two ****s about that or the belts. They want the big bucks but aren't willing to make sacrifices for it. Cry me a river.
    I'm guessing yeah they want the money too. Probably annoyed that everyone are ducking them and creating these "title fights" in their division for lower weights. Probably also annoyed that they have to settle for small fights when guys like Canelo or Cotto are making huge money in gimme fights. Can't fault them for that, I'd be pissed too.

    Does that take away from first Martinez, then Cotto, then Canelo ducking? No.

    If you call yourself the middleweight champion you should fight the guy people think will beat you in order to prove yourself. That was the mentality of boxers of yesteryear. Obviously doesn't resonate with the current crop.

    And obviously Canelo vs GGG would be a bigger fight than Canelo vs Khan.

      Didn't GGG already say he would fight anyone from 154 to 168? I know of 3 people who've answered the call and GGG and his camp change their tune real quick. That's what i'm ashamed of.
      in what world is Canelo the cash cow of boxing?

      His popularity is so overrated it's crazy. Oscar always says: "the megadupersuperstar that is Canelo" as if he's the most popular guy anyone has ever seen.

      The dude could barely draw 300k to the table in a LMW championship fight,

        IDK about everyone ducking him. They seem to do their own amount of ducking. They don't have to settle for small fights, they can have the big ones if they're willing to make concessions. He doesn't have the resume of a great and he doesn't have big star power either so his team needs to stop pretending he does. He's 34 and never stepped in with an elite fighter and until he does, I find it very difficult to accuse others of ducking when they've done the very thing GGG has shown no inclination of doing on anyone but his own terms.

          seriously cant believe people expect GGG to drop down to 155lbs to fight Canelo
          This catch weight bull**** didnt even exist until Pacquiao and Mayweather started doing it

              In what world is g string the A side in a Canelo matchup? I realize posting this fits your agenda but it's a bald face lie

                Let's not play around. GGG has been avoided at 160. Saying anything else is ridiculous.

                I'm not sure who GGG has ducked at 160, but no one to my recollection.

                  With regards to?

                  Seeing Fury is already the reconized and true champion, I don't see how this applies.

                    Money wise Canelo/Khan is a bigger fight than Canelo/g string

                      What makes you say that exactly? GGGs views are crapping all over Khan's.

                      If it lands on UK PPV, then maybe. But even so, it won't do very well in the UK, guaranteed. Khan's last fight was not even shown in the UK.
