ESPN BREAKING NEWS: CANELO-CHAVEZ JR for MAY 6!! Waiting for JR to ACCEPT!!

[GMAN SUPREME]

ggg was looking to fight jr after jacobs (assuming that fight happens). Im sure that would have delayed the fight too.

I think its funny ggg is getting the cold shoulder yet again.

delay what fight? you are too ****** to see canelo has no intention of fighting ggg ever.

[Mr. Objectivity]

Just make sure he fights GGG next...i think this Canelo vs JCC jr is overdue.

[-MEGA-]

delay what fight? you are too ****** to see canelo has no intention of fighting ggg ever.

He should have taken the 10mil offer then, right?

Is this legit. If so it's hilarious.

I was gonna make a joke about Canelo moving to SMW after Charlo's W, but I didn't think he'd really do it.

Can't make 160 so fights at 155, moves down to 154 cuz he's too small for MW and now he's fighting at 164? Oscar needs rehab baddddd with all this lunacy.

its all business, just like ggg can make certain weights for certain fighters but not for canelo...the irony

Freak fight. Chavez sucks. Canelo can spot him an extra 20lbs and still beat Chavez in a 12 round fight. But Canelo probably rehydrates to about 180 in this scenario, where Chavez is probably 190. So size wise they're not that far off, just Chavez sucks. Probably be a fun fight though, Chavez won't run from Canelo like Smith, Cotto, Khan, Lara, Trout.

[Chrismart]

Struggles to make 154, but doesn't want to fight at 160, so campaigns at 155. When the fight against the top guy at 160 is ready to be made, he drops his belt and moves back down to 154 for the first time in 3 years.
After one fight at 154, while stating he needs time to build up to 160 for GGG, he may well be taking a fight that falls inside the SMW bracket.

I often wonder how Oscar keeps a straight face when he talks.

It's a circus act. But hey, i'd go along with it if we got a GGG - Jacobs fight in the mean time, then a GGG-Canelo fight after that.
But the odds of that happening? Anyone's guess i'd imagine.

Too much truth in this post.

[Bjl12]

Don't understand why the fight is happening b/c the two are so different in size. JCC Jr. is going to be very drained and Canelo will be very fresh (not having to worry about shedding weight at all). Nonetheless JCC should be able to withstand a ****load of punishment due to his size/weight advantage.

This fight must be for Mexico so Canelo can become their #1 guy or something. Honestly don't see another reason for it. Would rather see Andrade, Charlo(s), Lemieux, hell even Sergio Martinez...XD

[bambam182]

We need to start calling Canelo, "Sideshow Bob". He's all about the circus acts. This is getting ridiculous lol

how come you never called floyd or manny that through out the 6 years that they didnt fight?

All this talk and yet GBP/Canelo are the only ones who have made an official offer to fight - which GGG REJECTED. In other words Sanchez and the Khazakh have talked a lot of **** without ever having even made an offer, but you (and countless others on this board) defend those jokes as if they've been making offers all the while. They were offered the fight by Gomez/DLH and they turned it down.

Meanwhile GGG is slated to fight Brone at the full 160 because he cannot concede 1 pound despite require opponents to concede 13 or 20.

I wonder if you are legally ******ed or just functionally
