    **** you assh0le. Watch the fight lol...
    C'mon bro, don't you think Chavez has a chance to hurt Canelo? I'd bet all my points that fight goes the distance or Chavez KO's Canelo, Canelo won't be able to KO Chavez, his chin is better than GGG's.

Garcia vs Canelo NEXT Cinco de Mayo or Thurman vs Canelo...triple g will be appoaching 37 before he gets a shot at the face of boxing...lol Canelo will have even more power at the negotiation table. Playing "Hardball" sometimes gets you what you want, but sometimes you get ZERO.
      Sadly these dudes sometimes get too greedy and don't know where they are the the negotiating table.

      I just want to watch this ****ing fight Canelo vs GGG is the fight everyone wants to see.

      Gotta start putting pressure on GGG too to make the fight right now.

        Pls, that excuse has gotten old, 160 is no more problem now, 160 and 15 million plus ppv upside is on the table.

        The offer has been sent.

          Like I said back when this rumor started, it's not an awful fight in concept, but the circumstances are horrible. It completely blows apart every flimsy excuse Alvarez made to avoid the fight fans actually want.

          This is a freak show money grab.

            this is Chavez at 167.5 lbs.. looks weak and sick. for him to make 164 and not feint on the scales would be a miracle. most of his training camp will be spent on cutting weight, while Canelo gets to eat baby back ribs and French fries. .this is a slaughter.. Canelo will batter him just like Angulo.

            this fight only sells because Junior is still riding the wave of his father's accomplishments.

            why not Andrade or Jermall Charlo at 155? oh yeah this is Cinco De Mayo weekend, opponent has to be Hispanic to sell..Floyd knows all about this.

            Will it be entertaining? most likely, that is if you enjoy a one sided demolition.

            Canelo by KO in 9.

            after this he'll most likely do the Cotto rematch and end the year agaisnt BJS. ..sorry I don't see the GGG fight happening this year.

                  If Jr is not drained, im calling the upset.

                  Canelo is tailor made for Chavez. Smaller fighter with minimal movement, who throws very few punches and tends to tire out around the middle of the fight. Canelo has pretty good head movement which makes up for his stuck in mud, lack of foot speed and movement, but Chavez Jr sits past the pocket inside of your shoulders, which will suffocate Canelo's combos, and Chavez works the body pretty well when he's in this position, which negates Canelo's head movement. This will be a battle of positioning, Chavez will want to be close, while Canelo will want to stay in the pocket to land combos, which is the one advantage he has over Chavez. Canelo has slow hands but decent speed when he snaps out a combo, deffinetely faster than Jr. I can see this fight being pretty even for the first few rounds, I could even see Canelo edging a lead maybe even looking much better than Chavez, but I think Chavez's pressure, non stop punching and size will define the second half the fight. I say ref stoppage some where between rounds 8-10.

                  Of course this all depends on Chavez Jr's conditioning, and I think if he actually trains with Roach, I would double down on my prediction.

                    Was GGG wanting Chavez for the longest? Yes.
