Has this ever happened before? a fight being offered for over a year away with other fights happening in-between?
I mean we're talking 2 or 3 fights in between, especially for Golovkin and probably 2 for Canelo.
I think i've heard of ones where fighters have an upcoming fight that is basically a tune up and the deal is basically done for after that but 2 or 3 fights time is very strange.
My general feeling is Golden Boy are trying to put it off as long as possible and hoping/knowing a lot changes in boxing in over a year and we might get some reason why the fight no longer takes place. But by offering a fight, they are saving face a little bit making it look like they want it.Last edited by deathofaclown; 09-20-2016, 02:18 PM.Comment

Hmm. The November offer was BEFORE Canelo broke him little hand. I bet they want to buy even MORE time now.
I don't blame them. If I were in their shoes, I'd buy time, too. Golovkin is smart in many ways, but he looks really ****** (to me) taking massive shots to the face after abandoning the jab and boxing. Those shots will take their toll over time. They always do.Comment
