ggg needs Canelo, not the other way around.

[Beercules]

Should ggg not take the fight?

159. No lower.


Going to be a beating . Instead of a towel Chepo will throw the Mexican flag.

[KeyboardWarrior]

There is no way for Chepo, Fishnets or Yellow Canelo to save face.

The spin is real. You think the casuals care how Canelo looks, or even know wtf is going on right now? They're the ones who pay, keep your ppv money. Canelo don't need it he's got 10 to your 1.

See how that works?

You are operating under the assumption that money is Golovkin's driving force. I dont think it is, if it was he would have gave in already for the big pay day. He seems to have principals he wont compromise unlike the ginger who just destroyed his name and reputation. Like Ive said before I would tell Canelo to butt a stump and move on to BJS, Jacobs and whatever other deserving contender is up for it then move on to smw. Canelo can sit on his thumb and wait for Golovkin to concede and fight more wws or lwws.

Let's face it, a win over Canelo for ggg would mean far more than the belts. So if ggg doesn't meet at a catchweight, does that mean ggg is scared?

I'm of the opinion that boxers aren't scared to fight anybody.


ggg and his team thought they would have leverage against Canelo. But Canelo was like "fook this belt, you can have it. I got enough money to buy 100 belts"
That's where the leverage kicks in. No mandatory split. Here's 2.5 million and some from the ppv cut (ggg biggest purse yet) we meet at 155. "You want the glory come get it"

I can easily see how Canelo could drop this belt. He's the star, he's the A side. I think ggg would be a fool to refuse the offer (Maybe negotiate it to 156-157 if he could) but if he don't....your boys a punk!

I guess 154-175 meant only at 160...

How many times do you have to read it to understand it? Canelo is not a 154 fighter, and 155 is not a division. He's a MW, and a heavy one. So he's the coward. GGG is doing things right.

[SilverMiles]

Canelo is the laughing stock of boxing right now, every fighter is taking jabs at him. He really needs to take this fight.

[SeekDaGreat]

It's a moral victory for the GGGroupies, sadly, it's his biggest win to date. A gifted "title."

What a badass.

It's alright, if he can't come to terms with Canelo there's always another "ranked" Wade, Monroe Jr. 2.0 for his fans to pleasure themselves too.

They love the notion, more than they actually want to see him fight someone with a pulse.

They have nerve to scoff at Lara, and see no issue with Lil G flip flopping his stance on weights, and catchweights depending on the opponent. Somehow, that always gets ignored by his Stan's.

[Francis M.]

Canelo needs a big win to be the cash cow similar to Mayweather and Pac.

[KeyboardWarrior]

Canelo is the laughing stock of boxing right now, every fighter is taking jabs at him. He really needs to take this fight.

The damage is already done. It's clear as day Canelo is not going to fight GGG

[Dodger07]

They both need each other. Ggg needs him for the notoriety and money. canelo needs him for the respect and legacy. There's only so many fights canelo can take before the fans really turn on him.

So why do you work if money ain't the driving force? you must be outside your mind.

"Hey, I want to stay in my cubicle forever and make 40k a year. I'm gonna be the best telemarketer ever. Employee of the year, 8 years running"

Tell me again why you past up that job for 80k a year, You had principles? Ok

The ginger will still be on ppv in September with or without ggg. Getting paid. Meanwhile ggg can stick to his mandatory minimums and keep the belts. **** it.

No damage done.
