**** it, I changed my mind: To K2:



ACCEPT ANY TERMS. 155, 154, hell 153. Do what you gotta do. BEND the *** over and kneel and accept ANYTHING from Canelo. Open scoring, cartoon characters as judges, etc. JUST MAKE IT HAPPEN. This is your absolute one and only chance.... ACCEPT.

He actually fought up to Super Middleweight... vs RJJ is I remember.

And Camacho, once a junior lightweight fought welterweights and never once demanded a catchweight. Those were the days when we had serious ATG's like Camacho, Duran, Arguello, Benitez, and a whole bunch more.

[Weltschmerz]

Judging from the latest vibes Canelo doesn't seem to have issues with 160.. fight just needs to be made.

Purse split

I think around 60-40 would be fair. If it went to bid the split would be 55-45. Khan got a nice payday and ggg should make more then him. This is the biggest fight for both con-ggg to make.

Now that the wbc stepped up hopefully an agreement could be reached on weight maybe 158 canelo will not fight at 160 but will claim the 160 title lol

Kind of hard to go back down after what he said Saturday night. Unlike team GGG Canelo has yet to lie to the fans.

He said 160, so now it's about the $$$$. And GGG seems like there wanting a purse bid. That's gonna kill the fight. GGG 97k PPV buys aren't worth no FKN 55/45 split.

This will end up going to a purse bid as a way out for one side.

Let's see if K2/GGG accept the terms of GBP to make the fight or if they want the belt via strip. I think if GGG refuses to come down and gets the WBC belt because Canelo gets stripped, there's some fights Canelo can take in the meantime, other MW's will probably accept a catchweight of 157 or so for the money Canelo brings. Maybe we get Canelo vs Saunders at a cw.

I hope Canelo-GGG come to an agreement at 157, maybe make a compromise. Canelo budges 2lbs, Golovkin budges 3lbs, sounds fair.

why is that fair? Fair would be at the correct middleweight limit.

That's the purse bid by WBC. K2 said they don't want it to go there. K2 never lied to fans, Canelo did right after Cotto, saying he was ready, but fought khan. But don't let facts get in the way.

Not this argument again. History shows the A-side get what they want, or you get left like Winky Wright. If GBP/Canelo are even generous enough to budge 2lbs, that would be a big deal, and a deal GGG/K2 should accept with no hesitation. If he wants to Winky his career, just decline a catchweight and wait for Canelo to get stripped

70-30 @160. Make it happen.

If it doesn't come off, Canelo has options. Can't say the same for Golovkin.
