Comments Thread For: Canelo: While I'm at 155-Pounds, I'm Not Facing Anyone at 160

[KillaMane26]

"at 155 lbs"?

"at 155 lbs"?

STRIP THIS CLOWN

LMFAO........IM makes no fckn sense

[-PBP-]

Bardock...... Come defend your boy.

The Middleweight division begins at 155lbs and ends at 160lbs.

Incorrect.
You can fight in the middleweight division at whatever weight equal or less than 160, you just can't be more than 160. But you can't require from your foe anything less than 160 whoever you are if you are to defend your middleweight title against the mandatory challenger.

Madd respek to Nelo for cleaning out the 155 pound division

Has any fighter in the history of boxing ever done this? Maybe some hardcore history buffs can tell us

Catchweights are usually an agreement between two fighters from separate divisions to meet half way

Has any other boxer declared his own self-catchweight, completely on his own, and fought there 5+ times in a row?

Now keep in mind that fighter holds perhaps the most prestigious lineal title in boxing's most prestigious division

His response: "I'm not even a middleweight, I just cant make lightmiddleweight anymore"

Is Canelo championship boxing's lost point ever?

[Kilrain]

Are the WBC going to make good on stripping this diva when he swerves Golovkin?

[SeekDaGreat]

I haven't the slightest idea why he's acting like such a ***** about this.

Anyhow, people also need to realize he hasn't even had one defense of his "MW title." Let's see what he does after Khan. People are jumping to conclusions. Dude hasn't even stepped in the ring with his belt yet.

People already despise Canelo so they're so quick to knock him for any little comment he makes.

I've never been a fan of the redhead diva but was hopeful there would be less excuses from him than the other diva Cotto. It's obvious now that Alvared is a bigger diva than Cotto and will doing anything to duck GGG. In hindsight GGG should of forced his mandatory and derailed this joke of a middleweight defence.

No. he isn't

at least Canelo is willing to fight GGG at 155

Cotto would have never fought GGG, at 160, 157, 155 or any weight, ever

[LetOutTheCage]

And people call Cotto a diva, I bet he wouldn't have made any of the excuses Canelo has to avoid GGG.

The "title" messes everything up. If boxing were a real sport, he wouldn't have a title right now and would be fighting a couple of middleweight contenders like Lemieux, Saunders and Jacobs before fighting Golovkin for the MW title.

But the WBC allowed Sergio Martinez to cherry pick for several years to the point where he was physically shot, thus opening the door for little ass Cotto to move up in weight and capitalize, resulting in the ****ery you see today.
