Is anyone else boycotting Canelo's ppvs from hereon out?

1. Fighting Liam is not a bad thing, he holds a belt (GGG nut huggers are about #allthebelts )I was a fan of Canelo until he dropped the belt with now rumors of him fighting Liam Smith next. He made Golovkin wait for over a year by giving him step aside money so that he can bank from a Cotto fight, then strung him along with this "one interim fight' crap against Amir Khan just to drop the belt and give the finger to GGG and all the fans.
I bought his ppv's against Lara, Angulo, Khan but will no longer purchase this mismatch crap again.
Canelo banks while the fans lose.
2. Canelo did not make GGG wait a year, GGG was Canelo Mando for only 6 months and I don't hink Canelo gave GGG any side money (I could be wrong)
3. If you're going to criticize a fighter, make sure you have your facts straight and not look like YDKSB, just saying.Comment

You are confused or misinformed and need to get your facts right. Canelo never paid GGG a dime of step a side money or made him wait a single day. That was COTTO who did that, not Canelo. I never buy pfv fights. I just wait 7 days and see the same fight for free on HBO or Showtime which I already have. It's worth it to me to save $50 to $80 not seeing the fight live. Go ahead and boycott all of Canelo's fights if you want. It will have no effect on his career and how much money he gets paid or how successful his fights are financially.Comment

Honestly, I think you give boxing fans, in general, too much credit.
The boxing community is still talking about Pac's shoulder, Conor McG and Caneloweight. Once they're hooked, they're hooked.
People are paying for fights hoping to see it go against script.Comment

The WBC said Canelo and GGG could have one fight each before fighting each other and then Canelo had to fight him or forfeit his title and he had 15 days after he beat Khan to make a fight with GGG. Canelo almost immediately gave up the belt. So fault him for giving up the belt and not fighting GGG if you want. He isn't the first guy to chicken out of fighting GGG and he won't be the last. Don't make a federal case out of it and don't act like Canelo is the only guy who ducked or is ducking GGG. Martinez and Cotto both ducked GGG long before Canelo ducked him and Saunders and Jacobs won't fight him either.Comment

I wouldn't call it "boycotting" for me. I would call it "I lost respect for Canelo and have no interest in his fights anymore".Comment

After blatantly ducking GGG...we wont need to. And plus how many opponents can he use for PPV anyways??? He needs GGG almost as much as GolokinComment
