Comments Thread For: Canelo Vacates WBC Title! Says Golovkin Talks Continue

[buddyguns]

you're deluded

he literally just vacated his belt to avoid his mandatory. riddick bowe is remembered as one of the biggest duckers of all time for doing the same thing and now canelo will be remembered right alongside him

Riddick Bowe is in Canastota, and Canelo will end up alongside him there. At least you were half right.

Like Ca$hnelo said, f**k the belt, fight for pride! Let's see if Little G is a fighter or a businessman. Give the fans they want to see Little G! I bet that coward piece of s**t will go back to fighting bums like Heiland.

Little G.

The sport is full of casuals. It was obvious GGG was trying to force a money fight with favorable terms because negotiations on even ground means he gets significantly less money.


The whole thing was pathetic.

I'm not sure. He'll have to scrounge on the outskirts of the division for a while. At some point he might sack up and get knocked out by Ggg then we'll see if how he rebounds. Or he waits GGG out but how's he earning HOF points meanwhile? Bring Pac out of retirement?

That's a pitiful excuse and you're clueless

Canelo gave GGG the belt, and became an embarrassment in less than a day, what a power move lol at least Canelo can have a longer career now that GGG wont end it short.

You're a fool. Canelo didn't give up the belt technically he gave it back.

GGG has been saying all along that he wanted the belt. When Cotto had it he kept pressuring him to give it up. Then Cotto and Canelo fight is finalized and all of the sudden GGG ask for step aside money instead of having Cotto relinquish the belt, which he would have done to continue with his fight with canelo.

Why wouldn't little G take the belt? Why take the step aside money?. So when canelo won he could push for a fight because canelo has the belt. So canelo took away the only chip lil G had to play. Now they have to negotiate on even ground, based on accomplishment and money earned and they can't because GGG pales in comparison.

He is mid 30's fighting the level of guys canelo was knocking out at the age of 18!

Now Canelo can move up to 160 and steal all the money fights. GGG screwed himself, and we all know he won't move up and fight Ramirez, degeale or Direll. He won't even fight Lara!

So please explain, if he wanted the belt so bad why not force Cotto to give it up? He had a choice, the belt or money he chose money.

Just give it up dude, Canelo is ducking GGG. I dont care about money fights, you seem to think you get a percentage of Canelos money. Canelo aint moving up to 160 lol he still has the 155.5 division to think about.

Currently, Canelo sits with a better record than Bowe with 47-1-1 to 43-1. Canelo has a better record in world title fights with 9-1, to 5-1 for Bowe. Canelo has beat more champions than Bowe with a record of 10-1 to 7-1. Canelo is a three time world champion over two divisions. And he's not done yet. It stands to reason that he'll head straight for Canastota when his time is up.

Gatti made it with wins over Gamache and Leija, but you don't think Alvarez will make it in?

hmmmm, lets see.

Option 1: Dont get the Cotto fight, and get $0.00

Option 2: Dont get the Cotto fight, and get $800,000.00


golly gee shucks I dont know which is the smarter option.............

[MisanthropicNY]

Canelo gave up his belt to Triple G, so now he might was well get on his knees and open wide for Triple G too.
