Comments Thread For: Canelo: I'm Not a Middleweight, But Want To Fight Khan For a Title

[The plunger man]

Will Canelo-Khan outdo GGG-Lemieux in terms of PPV buys? Because if it does, kinda ****s in the face of your little crusade. I don't even gamble. But, wanna make a bet that Canelo-Khan outdoes GGG-Lemieux? If it does, you leave the forum. If it doesn't, I leave the forum.

Wanna bet that canelo avoids his mandatory and refuses to fight golovkin and lthen loses his belt ...if I win u leave the forum if you win I leave the forum ....it's a boxing forum not some pop idol vote ...sums you right up lol

Well I'm glad he has come clean. I don't put stock into his coming in high after weigh in because many fighters do that, as long as he tops at 154 at weight in, all is cool if he is fighting for the 154 pound belt. So now he can gain the respect of boxing fans worldwide by turning in his middleweight title and let middleweights fight for it.

canelo has crossed into irredeemable territory

no matter what future successes he has he will always be the guy who ducked ggg to fight amir khan and kept saying "im not a middleweight" despite being larger than both of them and linearl mw champion

totally pathetic

[TudorMiron]

So he weighed in 174 once lol so what? With clothes and shoes on. You think Canelo cares about taking off his clothes and stripping down when he gets on the fight night scale? So you fckng nerds can sit from your computers and cry

Gennady most likely steps on the scale butt naked so he could assure anyone that he's not fighting Ward even though he weighs in as a LHW himself. "Ward too much, I smaller guy" haha

So you admit that you don't know the truth but still blaming the guy for your own false assumptions?

[Robbie Barrett]

Why do weight divisions exist? to make fights fair. You don't want someone outweighing someone by 10+ lbs. Unfortunately that happens frecuently. One of the reasons is that fighters now have 30 hours to rehydrate, when in the past they had five hours, so they couldn't cut so much weight.

To say Canelo is the best at 154 is just not true. First, because he is not even a 154 fighter. He didn't make 154 for at least three years.
Second, he's an extreme weight drainer, and comes at 175 fight night.

In the other hand, GGG is not a weight drainer and comes at 170 fight night.

So, to you, it would be fair to make the guy that is already outweighed, to come even more lighter, just to make a fight against someone that in this case would outweight him even more?

I can understand your POV, I just don't agree with it respectfully. I don't care what drugs/methods Canelo uses to make weight, but I'm not judging the fighters skill to cut weight, I'm judging them as fighters. Canelo is a weight cheat, period. Disallow him from this weight advantage, and you get what Floyd did to him.

Has the cheek to say being outweighed by 10+ lbs on fight night is unfair, but he wanted Mayweather to fight Golovkin. These Lil' Gina hypocrites are ridiculous.

Canelo and his team are just scared. No knowledgeable boxing fan is buying the **** they are selling. What a shameless bunch of cowards.

And I used to be a fan of this redhead.

Wow... fl0mo detected! Mayweather said GGG would be easy work. But besides that, GGG at 154 would not outweight Mayweather by more than 10 lbs. It would be around 5-7 lbs, which is more because Mayweather is small rather than GGG being heavy.

So, it's not the same situation at all. Good luck fl0moooo you're very butthurt!

You're a ******ed hypocrite that doesn't know **** about boxing. Everyone knows it, i don't think i've ever seen you win an argument about boxing yet, you just quit and log off after getting embarrassed.

[hitking]

Fair enough argument, I just have an issue with the delaying of the inevitable. It's like wasting time imo. I think K2 is leveraging fights at 168 and talks of Chavez, DeGeale, Ramirez are just wetting appetites for the eventual move.

I hope so. Because they seem to be all on on this unification nonsense. He's already wasted 2016 chasing a Canelo fight that likely never was gonna happen. I'd hate to see him waste 2017 chasing a Billy Joe Saunders fight that isn't gonna happen. Chasing Canelo made sense. Billy Joe is a bum and complete waste of time. Definitely not worth chasing and wasting another year.

So I guess that's a no. Which means your whole, "people are disgusted with Canelo" argument is a complete crock of ****.
