Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr. Ready To Sign Contract For Canelo - Weight is 164.5

[steeve steel]

164.5 !!! Whoahahahahahahahahahahahahahah! You .. can't... make... this... poopoo ... up!

[Realizniguhnit]

I don't even know why people still bring up GGG vs Canelo. GGG seems to have moved past Canelo he now is focused on Jacobs and after that he wants Saunders.. Might as well just let it go until later in the year when they could meet at the earliest

[////]

Of he weighs more then GGG then he should of had no problem coming down to 155 last year. So why didn't he? Mr I can make 154 easy when he wanted a fight with floyd. Fact is canelo can still make 154 he proved it his last fight and has never fought above 155. GGG own promoter said before the cotto fight if canelo won ggg had no problem going to a catch weight below 160 to grab the fight. Then did a 180 demanding the A side be the only fighter to move weight and it backfired and he got no fight in 2016 because of making ****** demand. Canelo was willing to budge weight because Chavez is budging as well. GGG has a contract at 160 for sept let's see if he will sign it or not.

Why the **** would the reigning champion at 160 "come down to 155" (not a division) to fight a guy who consistently weighs 3+ pounds MORE than he does on fight night and held a MW title?

Are you literally this ******? Is your brain pudding?

Canelo came up with these ridiculous stipulations just to stall negotiations indefinitely. If he wanted the fight he wouldn't have dropped the belt and gone MIA.

There is no way you're too dumb to see this. You just have a crush on one of the fighters so you have to play dumb. Pathetic hobby you've got.

164.5 bahahahahahahhaha what a joke

Golovkin who weighs less than Canelo is being asked to move up to 168, 175 full time.

Canelo, heavier than Golovkin, fights at 155 and 164.5, "he's makin history haters!" lmao

[eco1]

the problem with some posters here is if Chavez makes 6 millions or not and they think that is good.
It might be good for Chavez, but it is another dagger to the centre of the heart of this sport.

Chavez is a bigger draw than Golovkin and accepted 20%, Golovkin wants 40%.

Are you sure? Then why isnt he making more Money than Golovkin? He used to be a bigger draw. Not anymore assh0le.

[bigdunny1]

Canella def A side but abuses the negotiations 20% for Chavez name is very unfair on talent is one thing but his fathers fans support him he is a draw they will try same thing with ggg flat fee take it or leave it so when you leave it's your fault

That name doesn't carry the same weight and leverage it used to that's why he fought fonfara for only 2.5m and his last 2 fights since then all saw less per fight. If Chavez could get this money on his own he wouldn't of fought his last fight in Mexico for less then 1m and wouldn't be agreeing to drop weight to fight canelo. Chavez hasn't been on ppv in half a decade.
He's coming back to ppv because of canelo, he's being paid more then 3x his recent biggest payday and more then he can get fighting anyone else. GGG and Jacobs combined will make less money fighting each other then Chavez will make from this 1 fight. GGG is the fool turning down big money fights Chavez is wise to not follow that plan.

Canelo playing chess while everyone else playing checkers. People said why did canelo pick smith his last fight he's unknown to American fight fans. The reason was to get his hands on WBO title for leverage in future fights. Chavez sr weeks back comes out publically crying about money being offered for canelo. 1 week later WBO made title holder canelo the mandatory for Saunders belt. Now Jr afraid Saunders will get the canelo fight so he's agreeing to the same money he was offered from day 1. That WBO belt played a factor against chavez and will also be used as leverage against GGG in Sept if he tries to price himself out.

Precisely. I been saying that since the Smith fight was made.

[ChiCityExtractz]

I have never witnessed someone who is so underachieved outside of selling tickets, demand such idiocy weight classes. What the **** is that? 164.5 lmao i hope memo is in Chavez corner. I want to see oscars Golden boy company crash and burn like a plane full kilos burning lmaoo

[bigdunny1]

Against ggg he is not moving up at all he fights at 175-180 how is 160 moving up that is why he is a fraud if Chavez wasn't a bum he wouldn't go near that

Chavez is a bum yet GGG were begging to fight him and just weeks ago his trainer called it his dream fight? At least be consistent you GGG cry babies you all would love if GGG were fighting Chavez and now that canelo the man who can ACTUAL makes deals with other fighters not just talk about them and then build roadblocks to kill fights like GGG does, took GGGs dream fight. Just like he took Cotto and if GGG keeps crying about money will take Saunders next.

[icha]

Chavez is a bigger draw than Golovkin and accepted 20%, Golovkin wants 40%.

Is not even a pct.. notice how he never mentions an actual pct., he is getting 6 mill more if they reach 1 mill, ppvs, thats why he says he thinks is not even 30 or 20 %... the max he can get is 12 mill and is not even guaranteed...
