An the great Kostya Tszyu would spit in Lil G face for fighting bums like Wade. So what's your point? At the end of the day Canelo will still be the lineal middleweight champ with or without the WBC belt and the only thing Lil G can do is kick rocks.

Lineal means nada if your running for your life against your mandatory....well this lineal world champion is running for his life against his mandatory so that makes him worse than a bum....fancy that getting stripped by the WBC and then starving himself back down to 154lb....cowardelo on the run like a 2 bit thief in the night

Canelo and Khan (two guys that never had a fight at the MW limit) fighting for the lineal MW title is a complete sham. And this, coming from a big Canelo fan. Vacate the title and continue fighting the best fighters at whatever weight, but don't do it for the linealW championship of the world. Everyone knows that's bull****.

As I expected! This **** dares to be great! He can **** off back to 154.
What a ****en waste of space!

lmaooo this kid is a big ***** they stole cotto belt for what I told everyone this kid would not fight ggg the only big name that would step up would be cotto because him and ggg would sell out msg first day

lol dude youre a Cotto fan. He wiped his ass with that belt. Or did you forget all your knee-taking hero's catchweights at Middleweight? LMAO

This sounds absolutely terrible from Canelo.

Shows how little a genuine excuse he really has.

He's a big guy even for a middleweight as his weighins show. He has no excuse and it's embarrassing hearing him go on like that.

Show that you are not a coward like Ward , fight GGG

Haha you cant be serious. The irony in this post is monumental. Wards gonna fight Kovalev at a hif her weight class. GGG was scared to fight Ward at 168 and ran the a Canelo playbook of excuses.

This, I get some fresh memories from the Angulo fight:

"Canelo weighed in at 155 lbs last Friday night and had the weight limit for his junior middleweight fight moved to middleweight at 155. For the secondary weigh-in, which was requested by team Angulo, Canelo weighed 166 lbs [super middleweight] at 3:00 p.m. PT last Saturday. He then re-hydrated up an incredible 8 lbs to come into the fight at 174 against Angulo. "

I gonna tell you something, I have had few amateur fights here in Europe when I was 18-19 years old(I'm now 31).

So I have been making weight, I could rehydrate at best 6-7 lbs eating almost nothing the day before then running to lose some sweat (never did that much by the way).

I just DON'T UNDERSTAND how you can lose then rehydrate 20 lbs in 24H and being competitive for 36 minutes in a such violent and intense sport like boxing.
Are those guys being blood drained?

Can somebody please enlight me?

Simple. He's not draining 20-25 pounds. I know, crazy. Like you said, there's no way he would have the skill or the energy to go 30-36 minutes with the best fighters in the world if Canelo had to hydrate 25 pounds in 24 hours lmao

He hasn't fought at JMW since 2013.

If it looks like a MW, Carries a MW belt, Fights within the MW weightclass (above 154), then it IS a Middleweight.

Either man up and fight as an actual middleweight, or vacate move back down. I'd rather he just admitted he has no interest in fighting Golovkin anytime soon and will vacate, at least everyone knows where they stand then and everyone can move on from it.

Also, i could totally understand the catchweight if Canelo was 154 champ and GGG was 160, but he has a ****ing MW belt and obviously has fought above 154 for almost 3 years now for a reason. It's just absolutely ludicrous.

Also, seeing as it's blatantly obvious now he won't fight GGG, i'm hoping Khan beats him. That would be embarrassing losing to a guy who was still fighting 144 catch-weights a few fights ago. But on the other hand i hope Canelo wins because he will finally be exposed as the ducker he is when WBC say he has to fight GGG or vacate, and then he vacates.
