All his little fanboys get upset when Canelo ask for a catchweight of 155 but refuse to acknowledge how their hero pulled the same stunt on Ward. Anyhow, you admited Lil G only fights bums so there's nothing else for me to discuss with you. At the end of the day Canelo will be headlining PPV's while Lil G will be fighting his Next opponent Jorge Heiland on regular HBO.Last edited by boxingitis; 06-20-2016, 10:09 PM.

Everyone knows 155 is not a division, and Alvarez has never stated it was. If you wanted to fight Alvarez then you're acknowledging his fight requirements. Nobody is forced to fight him.
The reality is that most boxers wish they had Alvarez's business power on his spoilage. He's not bending rules, and the commission will dictate the type of fight and what's at stake. Along comes Cotto, he accepts the challenge, loses. Alvarez had to keep the remains. He doesn't care what people think about his position under 160 WBC rules. İt's not he's scared nor does he carr about the financial gain nor would he provide a favor to K2.
Alvarez is 25. No rush. Its all about money and sharing. If Alvarez doesn't want to share his loot and hear Loeffler's demands can you blame him?. Nah, people call him scared..yet Loeffler and Abel were on record before the Khan or Wade bout that 2017 or 2018 is more likely. How can anybody make sense of those statements? Would the WBC let the Lil'G vs Alvarez bout happen a year or two later under "mandatory" rules?
No. Abel and Loeffler knew that GBP were not going to bend for K2's B side demands. Realize its GBP vs K2. Not even comparable...nor would Loeffler dictate to Bhop or Oscar across the table. Boy would get slapped and shook
I agree that being the top ppv draw in the sport affords you all kinds of advantages. Sure. But we must not forget the social media aspect of it now. Because of the age we live in, the social media has a large impact. Case in point: what happened to the numbers for the Pac/Bradley III fight?...I'll tell you: Pac said something ****phobic...which even turned his own people against him. A-side fighters cannot just do anything they want anymore. If Canelo did not want to be in this situation, he should have never paid the fees to acquire the WBC belt...he should have never defended that belt as well. He should have never acquired that belt...& all this, knowing full well who was standing at the end after his fight with Cotto: GGG. Yet, Canelo did it anyway. There's nothing smart about the situation he put himself in.
I don't think you're factoring in the special circumstance GGG was in in regard to Canelo: he held 2 belts, wanted the WBC, & knew that he didn't have to agree to 155 as long as a belt was on the line. And let's not forget that Canelo has not vacated the lineal title yet, either. A belt is still on the line. Like I said, Canelo could have avoided this whole mess by not paying the belt fees. But he did it anyway...then vacated. How else is a boxing fan supposed to take that bit of evidence? Just believe that Canelo really wanted that fight but GBP don't want him in that?...isn't that worse for his product?...wouldn't that affect his future earnings? According to evidence from both FMJ & Pac, you cannot do whatever you want & still earn the same money. You don't say "Mexicans don't f#ck around"...then turn around & f#ck around. If Canelo wants to redeem himself, he should force the GGG fight. Any other bout GBP sets up for him will be considered a duck. And that's the truth.

You really wanna use that approach maxi ? LMAO
Lets say you're right..... you're not, but lets say..... so, Ward ducked Golovkin, because apparently he could make 160..... and Golovkin ducked Canelo, because apparently he could make 154..... is that right?
BTW, Ward stated that the Mayweather topic was a silly twitter beef over Guerrero, he stated that he cannot make 160, and he stated that he never considered or pursued a Mayweather fight.
