Comments Thread For: Canelo Jabs Critics: Nobody Will Pressure Me Into Golovkin Fight!

[Dolor]

You like GGG and you believe that Canelo is ducking him.
You believe that Canelo vs GGG should be happening next and that Canelo is making excuses. Do you have concrete evidence?

Yes. He handed his WBC belt to GGG. How much more concrete can evidence be?

[hyeduk]

Your own Mexicans are criticizing you, (Mexican fighters included) and that's what bothers you more. There is a reason you are behind Lomachenko on the Pound for pound list

[IMDAZED]

This fight will happen next year.

LOL ...From "i'll fight you right now"... to "nobody's gonna pressure me"! Poor kid..

They don't care about the sport nor do they understand the business side of the sport.

Why should any boxing fan care about the business side?

Are guys on this board grown-up men interested in watching good fights, or teenage groupies interested in the well-being of their favourite pop singer (in the hope of getting laid by him one day after the show, and becoming pregnant)?

Alvarez vs Golovkin is the biggest fight in boxing....not the best fight in boxing.

Ward vs. Kovalev is the only fight that could be regarded as "better" at the moment - and even that is debatable (as Canelo vs. GGG would probably be more exciting, with a higher likelihood of a KO).

because 'boxing is a business' is codeword for meaning 'im a hardcore fan who knows more about boxing than others'

Just to be clear: I understood everything you said and the logic behind it. Also, you make sense in your statements.
I however brought up the technicality to show that one should not be too eager to criticise lest one becomes a victim their own statements.

Thank you.

But as I was not making claims of my own, I was not at risk of doing that.

The talks that took place for a GGG/Ward fight at 168 took place last year and according to Ward and his team, it was for the fight to take place after Ward took on a few tuneups and for it to happen around the same time Ward/Kovalev is happening.

Ward recently said himself that he can no longer make 168 and has a hard time even getting down to 175. What makes you think that he would magically make 168 had they agreed to fight this year? Ward couldn't even make 168 when he came back from his hiatus.

I didn't want to see Canelo vs. Khan because Canelo is physically bigger.

I didn't want to see GGG vs. Ward because Ward is physically bigger.

I don't want to see GGG vs. Brook because GGG is physically bigger (no matter how blown-up Brook is now)

BUT

I wanted, and want, to see GGG vs. Canelo, because they are the same size (no matter how much Canelo drains himself to make 154, which he couldn't even do in recent fights), and because both of them are exciting fighters looking for the KO.
