i cant believe these guys...

GGG is not obligated to go up.

Canelo is.

he beat cotto for the "lineal" wbc middleweight championship belt and he now carries that distinction. plus he rehydrates to damn near light heavyweight on fight night yet refuses to fight a FELLOW MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLIST AT MIDDLEWEIGHT.

this isnt rocket science.

[Mr. 29K]

I agree. Not only that, but he is ducking Lara as we speak. Fahk Mr. 97K PPV BUYS.

GGG has beaten no one of note, and is perceived as a hype job by a segment of boxing fans (we know which "segment" that is) but somehow he is expected to go up in weight to fight a guy who already wiped out said division people want GGG to move up to and is fighting at 175lbs.

Gomez has no shame. Someone post the vid of him defending the salka fight after it happened

[Raonic]

Well I think GGG should have gone up to 168 the same way I think Canelo should go to 160. So doesn't change anything I say about Canelo. I like him as a fighter but he's become a joke when it comes to his CW.

[Pigeons]

I must admit, this situation is pretty hilarious.

It's payback for ducking.

but ggg didn't go up to 168 lbs, he stayed at mw, canelo moved up for cotto and now is the mw champion. 2 different scenarios
