    Canelo has already said he'd fight GGG at 60 so until otherwise stated why are we still making threads about this?
    Is the need to complain that strong in some?

      And when Ward turned down Golovkin at 168? Sorry, circumstances changed when Ward two years later was finally ready (well, ready meaning another year down the road) since Golovkin was signed to fight Lemieux and expected to fight Canelo/Cotto winner after that. You don't sign a fight a weight class above for an unknown date with all that on your table. But when Golovkin wasn't mandatory to the wbc he was willing and able and ward turned him down, but let's conveniently forget about that.

      Further, it's a deflection post from Larry. Canelo, Golovkin, two champions in the SAME weight class with Golovkin being mandatory to Canelo. It's quite simple really. But of course anytime this is brought up people try to deflect the attention and pretend it's the same thing and same circmasntances as ward.

        That's fine but you can't be asking for CW in your division. That's only for undersized divas, and even they don't demand 155.

            GGG doesn't hold a belt at 168 lbs while defending it at 161 lbs. they offered 164 lbs so they can meet in the middle. unlike canelo who holds the MW belt but defends it at 155 lbs. if canelo was still at super welterweight a CW vs GGG would make sense but since they are at the same weight class it doesn't. GGG and ward never fought at the same weight class
