That's debatable. I bet GGG moved up to fight a 168 pounder within a year. .

moving up 1 division after 11 or 12 years as a pro

How many times did Chael Sonnen get title shot??? It seemed like he was ALWAYS losing his title shot and THEN his very next fight was ANOTHER title shot! And the dude kept getting popped on drug tests just to be awarded another championship figh! But boxing is the joke???

That's true, he did get many undeserving chances.

Connor McGregor The 145 champ just fought Diaz at 170, and lost. So it is OK for MMA, and not Boxing? McGregor asked for that fight, and Khan asked for this one. If he loses, he only has himself to blame, but give him credit for trying, and don't blame Canelo for accepting a good payday.

True.

Gracie gave up more weight and won MMA titles and was feared by many. McGregor thought the same. Two different sports and techniques.

Who says he has to move up at all? He isn't draining fighters at a beeotch weight

Saul "Canelo" Alvarez
"I climb inot the ring at whatever weight that's going to give me the win, whenever it's 180 or 190 pounds-if I think th's the appropriate weight for me on the day of the fight"

Followed by:

Chepo "Canelo is not a natural Middleweight."

WTF! Canelo, his team and his fans are a pure joke! How can you people support him?

This is embarrassing!

The Arabian Gulf states are super rich.

Certain individuals within the Gulf States are super rich, the average citizen is not and survive on hand-outs from the rulers

Furthermore, in places like UAE and Qatar, the majority of residents are low paid workers who do not have 2 dollar notes to rub together
