Comments Thread For: Canelo's Next Opponent Close To Finalized, Pacquiao is Out

[MrRolltide91]

Turning down GGG for Pacquiao is one thing. Regardless of how many people b1tch, its the right move because its a bigger fight. But turning down GGG for Liam Smith is another. Its a very lame move. Especially if Canelo is planning on making the move to middleweight. I've defended Canelo because I see him as a jr middleweight, with no obligation to move up, as long as big fighta are being made where he's comfortable. But if he fights Smith, 2016 will be a lost year for Canelo. A year that consisted of stay busy fights against Khn and Smith. Not acceptable. If Canelo is going to middleweight, he needs to fight GGG. If he's staying at jr middleweight, he needs to fight guys higher up the food chain.

Agreed.....

I guess that few months of "Canelo is a middleweight" dumbness sure backfired, huh?

[aboutfkntime]

Whatever bullshit Canelo came out with in the ring after fights, eg "160 lbs is no problem. I'll fight him tomorrow"... the fact is that GBP never offered to fight Golovkin this year at any weight during real negotiations.

why deflect ?

..... how does that comment from Canelo justify or excuse the FOUR YEARS of bull**** from Golovkin?

..... and it's not like it's an isolated incident or anything, because Golovkin did the exact same thing with Ward.

"Golovkin Would Fight Ward at 168 and Canelo at 154".....

Golovkin said that he would fight Ward at 168 and Canelo at 154, but then he killed BOTH fights over the weight.

And btw, your " middleweight " just signed to fight for Beefy Smith's JMW title.

I say again..... JMW title..... as-in, at 154.

154.... you know, Junior Middleweight

I guess that few months of "Canelo is a middleweight" dumbness sure backfired, huh?

So, considering the fact that lil'G said that he "Would Fight Ward at 168 and Canelo at 154".....
http://thaboxingvoice.com/golovkin-a...4/15398?var=no..... why didn't lil'G contact his management team IMMEDIATELY and instruct them to make that fight?


foolio


If Team Bull**** thought they could beat Canelo at 155, they would simply fight him.

I agree.....

I can see that they are attempting to exploit the Khan/UK exposure, but recently he has been fighting a tough one and then a money fight..... Andrade or one of the Charlo's would have been better, even J-Rock.
.
The Smith fight will most likely happen at 155, but if it happens at 154 for Smiths title, a large pile of silly casual fans are going to look pretty ****** LMAO

Oh, and they will hear all about it.

kafkod = full-of-it, as usual.....

Canelo never offered to fight GGG at any weight, let alone 158, which is what BHop accepted from Oscar.

Good point lol Yellow Canelos massive PPV number days are waning all things considered.

Boycott the pussified yellow canelo

[aboutfkntime]

You should try fixing your own idiotic comments rather than pissing around with other people's.

"Canelo doesn't need li'l g, he's still going to be a star and do massive PPV numbers whoever he fights ... blah blah"

true, good point

Because Manny said he isn't fighting above 150 and Canelo can't make that weight. Also, Broner fights at welterweight, can sell tickets, and would be an easy win even for this version of Manny(which is still light years ahead of Broner)

Neither of those things happened during the last 3-4 months.

Why has Bob Arum been continually mentioning Canelo ?

I agree with you, that fight was never going to happen..... but, if that is the case, then why has Bob Arum been continually mentioning Pac/Canelo ?

When are people gonna smarten up about Arum.

[aboutfkntime]

the only guy i can realistically enjoy watching Canelo fight is Boo Boo Andrade. Hes tough as s*** and what he did to Willie Nelson is not by accident. Canelo vs Boo Boo is a fight that intrigues me but it will probably not sell.

That's a great fight.

The inside word is that Canelo will fight Beefy Smith next, but I would love to see that Andrade fight.
