Comments Thread For: Sanchez Erupts: Golovkin Won't Go Down One Ounce For This Diva

I'll never understand how or why people defend Canelo. I can see if he was doing this weight thing once but he's doing it a lot...like years! Blowing up guys and say he's great. Fans in boxing are becoming weirder everyday.

... it's a "Robin Hood world"...

that's just ******ed as hell. "I will only defend the lineal middleweight title at 155", lol.

Issac Clark is letting his emotions get in the way of common sense (RIP).
The concept of a lineal champion needing to lose in the ring is a good one, but it is also flawed... In this case the lineal champion isn't neccesarily a boxer viewed as the best.
There is no organisation to police lineal champs, it is just a way for us fans to keep track of who's on top. Therefore it is us as fans who give this title any meaning or significance. As a part of this, I for one would like to dispute Alvarez if he drops the title, and especially if Triple flop unifies all titles. Hopefully common sense prevails and we start a new lineage with Golovkin (as fans control the title), but this will be disputed of course!

After all, if Alvarez followed the rules it would be a 100% duck, but because he has his own weight division he can justify ducking Golovkin because little G won't fight at Caneloweight. Only demands GGG is making is that they follow the rules. Canelo is making up rules as he goes along the **** sucker.

Dude don't sweat it too much, Lineal is a imaginary concept. The title only exists in the mind of the fan.

If Canelo vacates the WBC title no one with common sense will consider him a world champion at MW of any sort. He has abandon not only his obligation as WBC champion but also his obligation to face the world recognized #1 MW. If GGG captures all the titles he's the man of the division and the person that beats him will be the man.

I really don't see how he gets alway with this, Mexico is a prideful country. They take pride in having world champions. I'm very interested to see how they'll react when Canelo just willing to hand over a Championshio that belongs to the country of Mexico.

The Ring magazine award very impressive and beautiful lineal world title belts to whomever they recognise as the lineal champ in every division.

Canelo won the Ring lineal from Cotto. According to their rules, he will lose it if he doesn't defend at the championship weight at least once every 18 months.

The MW championship weight is above 154 and up to 160. It's going to be interesting to see how the Ring - owned by Oscar Dela Hoya - react if Canelo uses his "I'm not a MW" excuse to avoid fighting GGG at the championship weight and keeps fighting at 155 while continuing to call himself the lineal MW champion.

MW is 154-160 dumbo.

Then we have be a fight? Canelo can come in at 155 and Super G at 160 !!
Mang !!!

KNOCKOUT!

MW is 154-160 dumbo.

you finally said something correct for once.

Middleweight is 154.1 - 160.

Its NOT 154.1 - 155

Middleweight is 154.1 - 160.

Its NOT 154.1 - 155

154.1-155 is inbetween 154.1-160 so it is MW.

[OnePunch]

154.1-155 is inbetween 154.1-160 so it is MW.

thats just ignorant. Thats like saying it would be just fine for a small heavy like Chris Byrd or someone to demand that opponents come in at 201, because hey, 201 IS heavyweight you know. (except Chris Byrd had balls and would never have dreamed of pulling some silly **** like that)

defending this crap really says alot about you.

I actually don't like CWs, but Golovkin does so it's OK for Canelo to ask for one.

Yes, 155-160. The entire range. Not any individual point within that range.
