Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Canelo is Champ at 160, Never Faced a Middleweight!

[garfios]

you cant name a boxer in history of boxing that was avoided like ggg.

Rigondeaux...

Manny weight = 2 lbs shy of class limit and first fight against full-fledged WW
Canelo weight = 5 lb shy for years and is the lineal of the weightclass

See the difference?

And for the record, I was never in favor of his catch-weights, however, they made some fights that probably wouldn't have...in this case, the catch-weight is preventing the fight. IMO, catchweights should never be for title/lineal. They should only be for exhibition/testing, not championships.

NO WAY !!

LMAO, Pac had 8-9 weight-affected fights, most of them consecutively..... including catchweights, and including manny-weight..... which is fighting JWW's at 143/144.

manny-weight = pulling the little guys up, and pulling the big guys down.

canelo-weight = fighting JMW's 1lb over the limit..... NOT disadvantaging his opponents AT ALL, other than giving himself an extra pound leeway that his JMW opponents likely do not benefit from quite as much as he does.

Canelo-weight is fkn lame, and fkn unprofessional..... but nothing like you are making out, and nothing close to manny-weight.

I completely disagree.

The " boxing fans " who defended manny-weight, and who are now bashing canelo-weight..... are "special".

I told everyone that manny-weight was a nasty precedent.

I just want to see the fight. I dont like the CW, but Canelo is the star. If you want to be a star, you play the b side at least once. Floyd did it, Hopkins did it. GGG is no different. Dont try to flip my words like im some hypocrite. Its not just catchweights with manny, its fighting guys after they didnt look impressive.


I dont care if Canelo is a star or not....he is one....deal with it.

GGG will play the b side by letting canelo get 80% of the money. But he will insist on the 160 weight. I believe...

True, but I do agree with madsweeney about catchweights.

I just don't agree that catchweights are Canelo's fault/problem..... and I don't agree that catchweights should suddenly be abolished TODAY, just because it benefits Hypekin.

Fk Canelo, he is unprofessional..... but no unprofessional than Pac was.

As I said earlier, I told everyone that manny-weight was a nasty precedent.

It is actually amusing to see manny-weight supporters bashing canelo-weight.
