Comments Thread For: Canelo is Proud of His Resume, Says Golovkin Fight Will Happen

[aboutfkntime]

If you were able to read, you'd see I said catchweights are fine for voluntary or optional fights. Not mandatory world championship fights against the lineal champ. Maybe if you got your head out of Canelos ginger arse hole you'd be able to read easier - must be a bit dark in there, lad.

If GGG was the lineal SMW but told Ward to face him at 161 for the belt, I would crucify GGG. Massive ***** move. The fact you can't say that about Canelo speaks volumes. Optional v mandatory, get that in your thick head.

No they are not, they fkn suck, and are completely unnecessary.

You casual fans just don't get it do you.....

Listen, a catchweight has NOTHING to do with tiles/a-side, or any of that other ****.

A catchweight is to enable a bout between fighters who would normally never meet because of weight disparity.

And that is the ONLY reason.

You don't use weight to manipulate your opponent on the scales.

Winning on the scales is as old as the hills, and was always widely regarded within the industry as a b1tch-move.

Plenty of titles have been won at catchweight, so stop moaning..... but that has NOTHING to do with this example.

Hypekin tried that exact same catchweight **** on Ward, despite being willing to fight Froch/Chavez/Degale/Jack/Hopkins/Chudinov at 168..... and he justified that catchweight demand by stating that he was the a-side.....

The only thing worse than catchweights are double-standards and hypocrisy.

But you don't get that, do you ?

That's because itsba sht division that ggg and two ex-139 lbers run now. MW is a garbage division full of c+ fighters. Fk your ******* off to lil g fighting the 13 best MW. Who should of lost to the 42:year old midget.

It's funny u say that..so why doesn't Canelo figth one of those c+ fighters in da MW division? He sells anyway on may 7...but no he pick a WW to defend da belt most say he doesn't care about... lil'G fighting da 13 best bc Canelo ask if he could defend da belt he doesn't care about b4 he fights him on September..oh and da other guy got hurt..but u already know that..oh and Saunders said he 18 months away. .and Jacobs u already know da $...no need for da bad language bro..don't take it personal.

[aboutfkntime]

Isn't it dumb for Canelo to ask to defend that same belt he doesn't care about May 7?.so 3G doesn't want a unification fight at 155.. .yet he fight Canelo at 155 for a business fight ..yet u said that's dumb..if he doesn't care about Belts. .just drop it...as for Lara/Ward u saw my other comments about it. ..and there's no iF about 3G beating Canelo..I could say da same. .if Ward could beat 3G he do it at 164 too..

I do not believe for 1 second that Team Bull**** are happy to fight Canelo at 155 so long as the WBC title is not at stake.

That is absolutely fkn ridiculous.

Why the fk would they refuse a catchweight knowing that Canelo will be stripped, and then agree to fight him for that same title at the very same catchweight?

You can't be fkn serious, that is absurd.

If they thought they could beat Canelo at 155, they would simply fight him.

Want proof ?

They are happy to fight Kell Brook at 157.....

Don't get me wrong, Floyds resume is way better than Gggs or Wards or any of these newcomers. It just falls way short of his TBE standards. Will that get you to stop crying now?

That's just it. You hold Floyd to the standards of his "best ever" claim, which he falls short of, even though no semi-knowledgeable fight fan considers him the best ever. Yet when I, or folks like me, hold GGG to the standards of the hype he's receiving and status he has in the sport, his supporters wanna b1tch and moan. The fact is, for a guy that's pretty much a consensus top 5 P4P elite to have Daniel Geale or David Lemieux as his signature win is pretty pathetic. And no one in the division he rules over is even remotely considered an elite fighter, with the exception of Canelo. Who depending on your criteria, isn't even a middleweight. So why not move on to chase other special fighters if legacy is his prime goal?

[aboutfkntime]

You guys who believe that rubbish from Team Bull****..... that they would be only too happy to fight Canelo at 155, except for the fact that this is a mandatory defense.....

..... because that is your story, right ?......

How about this then.....

IMMEDIATELY after Khan/Wade, Canelo and Golovkin will negotiate.

BEFORE negotiations start, Canelo will drop the WBC title, and Golovkin will be elevated to FULL champ..... Canelo and Golovkin will then fight for the WBC at 155.

Right ?

Come on, stop the bull****.

They clearly don't want to negotiate with the red kid.

But, they will fight Brook at 157 no problem.....

Cause Canelo is the biggest prize in boxing, and Ggg his mando. If he ducks out like the previous lineal MW champs, then have the fraud stripped and move on

[casheddie]

You are gonna need to explain that one to me buddy.

If Canelo is stripped, how the fk will that earn Golovkin respect ?

What the fk is rattling around inside the heads of some of you guys ?

If Canelo is stripped, that will not resemble anything even close to a win.

Canelo didnt prove anything with the win against Cotto. It wasn't impressive because we knew GGG would probably KO Cotto. Nothing Canelo has done is bigger than GGG. Any opponent Canelo faced, GGG could beat (including Lara)

Did anyone say 3G gonna fight Canelo for da same mw belts after Canelo vacates? No unification at CW... U one of those that take every comment a fighter makes like is a contract. .was this comment b4 or after Canelo agreed to fight da WW ? Is 3G fighting Brooks? U know Ward said he do 160 for floyd why not for 3G? ..it's all comments. .that's it. .u pretend not to comprehend to keep writing...fact is Canelo fighting a WW..u already know why 3G fighting D wade..

You are incredibly dense.

If that's the case - catch weights are only for a weight disparity - why are you upset Golovkin asked for a catch weight against Ward? There's a weight disparity there. The fact he was willing to let the others go up to 168 shows he respected Ward's ability. Again, that's a voluntary fight for no titles or belts.

Likewise, why are you not upset with Canelo - a fighter who comes in at 175 - imposing a CW on a MW who comes in at 172! But in your eyes, Canelo can do no wrong. No lineal champ has fought his mandatory opponent at MW for a world title at a CW. Apparently, rather than Canelo being a coward, it's more awful that a fighter once tried to set up a fight with an elite boxer in a weight class higher than him, which he'd be going to for the first time ever, for a voluntary fight, tried to arrange the fight for 3 years. But because he asked that fighter to lose 4 lbs and he'd need to put 4 on, this makes him worse than chicken **** Canelo who won't defend his lineal and world title at 160.

Such a fanboy! Massage the balls - it'll come faster that way.

Because no one would buy those crappy fights on ppv. Just like they didn't fall for that ppv Pepe vs. Ggg...

I give canelo until Sept. If after Sept ggg and he hasn't fought, then ill turn on Canelovfor wasting everyone's fn time. But he has yet to lie to us. His ppl didn't want him fighting Lara he did. He opened his ****** mouth about 152 against Floyd. And kept his word... The fight won't be at 155. That is just negotiation s. Ggg is going to have to give up some weight or some $$$. I see it being negotiated at probably 157-158. 60-40 or 65-35 split. Ggg usually fight at 159 so that's in the middle. Ggg won't 155 unless it's 50/50 or more in his favor. This is business just like ggg said Ward wasn't worth a 90/10 split. Oscar said the same about ggg.

Sept. Is my count down. I don't get all worked up over negotiations in Feb.
