Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Canelo Fight Will Happen, When GGG is 60!

[Box-Office]

Canelo never even offered to fight GGG at 155. His team were obviously too scared that Golovkin might have accepted it.

What would be the point of sending the offer when GGG was firm about 160 lbs or no fight?

[MDPopescu]

Well, he is fighting at 154 now, he doesn't have any 160 belts. In all fairness, time for G to move on now.

Canelo holds The Ring belt at 160... He is one of the five current The Ring world champions...

Then Team Ggg says they'll do 158 and no lower, they settle on 157. Provided Canelo wanted the fight of course, which is not the case, hence no offer.

Canelo paid his dues by giving advantages to Cotto and Floyd to land them in the ring. Now it is GGG's turn. If he is wiling to move down to 154 for Floyd he could've surely done 155 for Canelo. This insistence to fight at 160 vs Canelo only hurts GGG, whois 34 & his best wins are Lemeiux & Murray, who are solid but for someone rated so high, it isn't much.



GGG is a small MW and it wouldn't be draining him not to mention Canelo is the A-side and while its not fair, but that is life. There is a reason why Mr 100 K PPV sales is travelling to UK to fight a Welter in his country.




You can call Canelo every name in the book, but he has a great resume, a lucrative fan base, oh and youth meaning he can fight a great name in the future to make up for this debacle.

You speak as if Canelo is man enough to face him at 155!
