I hope GGG never fights Canelo, **** him. All this BS, all they keep doing is mentioning GGG and they have no intentions of fighting. When will Canelo fight him? When GGG is close to 40? No thanks.

You mean like this Oscar?

Oscar was the smaller man that night so I doubt he is shocked about it.

[LADIV]

dlh is a cheating loser who wore a cast under his gloves. this guy is no better than margarito.

prove it or stfu...your probably puerto rican....

[monkeyboy]

What fight did he watch? Someone tell Oscar to go put his lingerie on and go suck a ****

I always liked DLH as a fighter. I didn't mind him as a promoter whilst he was quietly in the background. Now he seems to be a complete arse.

I used to like Canelo. Quiet, good boxer. Took on good comp. Lost to Floyd but it was a very tough match up whilst he was still young. Then all this middleweight/catchweight ******ity happened and it was (pun intended) indefensible.

Seriously! What happened? Is it just ****ty strategy from DLH and Canelo is following along or is DLH trying to smooth over a fear/weight problem/laziness issue for Canelo?

I'm leaning towards DLH just not being being very smart and Canelo also not being smart enough to see the blow his public image is taking.

He's already close to 40 without ANY significant fights, and thats no ones fault but his own....He wants to fight smaller guys and no hopers, this is him and his teams own fault, there was a guy one weight class above him, that he ducked and dodged...it wouldve been a "big fight, big drama show" but as we all know now, lil g is a bald faced liar...anyone from 154-168lbs except you have to come to 160-164, move down, if you "REALLY" want to make the fight, but he's a liar about that claim in regards to Ward at 168 and Canelo at 155, he's a LIAR.

And regarding that fight, Floyd would EASILY beat lil g, if this guy was tagging lil g that much, he wouldve did worse than canelo vs Floyd, Floyd would've won 12rds in the 12 round boxing lesson floyd would've put on

Good post. DLH seems like a complete jackass now and everything he says is either a lie or just straight BS.

I was never much of a Canelo fan but he is a good fighter, just never really felt like he was in control of his career or what he says in general, seems very controlled and it's weird. He doesn't speak english so maybe they need to do that? No idea

Once the GGG stuff happened with giving up the belt and stuff, it just turned me off and lots of other people as well. Everything is money to these guys but at some point Canelo needs to realize that his image looks terrible. Calling out GGG into the ring and not fighting him looks bad, giving up the belt looks bad, all this GGG talk looks bad and fighting Smith looks bad. Not sure if Canelo is going down the right path here. Fans can easily tune him out

People can say that they want about 3G/Brook being a mismatch (it was, obviously), but one thing you can't say is that Brook's a "small welter".

Brook was a huge welter.

Big enough to be residing at 154 for the foreseeable future (according to Brook himself).

I don't see why Brook needs to go to 160? Would Canelo, Jacobs, or Saunders do the same to Brook as GGG? I'm not so sure! If he stays at 154, I would love to see Brook vs. Lara or Brook vs. Andrade. I actually think the guys @ 154 are tougher opponents than the guys @ 160 (excluding GGG).

I said that because Canelo keeps saying he is ready. Ready for what exactly? If he isn't fighting, why keep mentioning GGG's name? Canelo is turning into a *****

And who cares about a fantasy Floyd-GGG fight? I give no ****s about it and i said nothing about it

[richardt]

Oscar is an idiot. He says that he can honestly say this fight wont take 6-8 years to make! WTF? No one would assume if the fight was made it would be when GGG is 42! Oscar and Canelo speak best when they don't say anything at all. Two social idiots.

[thack]

Wait and see what he does to Canelo if they ever were to meet!
