Comments Thread For: Canelo Plans To Vacate WBO Title, Fight at 160 - After Chavez Bout

[petegrif]

He's just marking time, hoping GGG's quality drops fast. It can happen.

[bigjavi973]

and when that happens I'll believe it.

Chances are he'll look to be wbo mw champ and fight Saunders in Sept. It'd be foolish to hold out hope that he'd realistically face ggg in September.

Yeah??? I thought that was the point of getting this belt??? He's already been declared the mandatory to the WBO MW Belt Saunders has because he's the WBO SWW Champ.

Not surprised

Look for goldenboy to offer billy joe Saunders big dollars for his title ...WBO already installed canelo as there mandatory back in December ..khurtdisze already accepted a step aside fee from frank warren ...Saunders would prefer to face canelo than golovkin 100% ..I'm not holding my breath on canelo facing golovkin in September ..yet again

He'll throw out all his normal BS and fight anyone but GGG...

[angkag]

I've always liked Canelo and disliked Chavez.

Now I find myself hoping Chavez beats Canelo....how the hell did that happen !!???

Oh Man -- it's on now! September 9, 2017: Canelo Alvarez v. Erik Morales for the coveted WBC Silver-Jerkoff Belt!

[Chrismart]

I remember hearing the Smith Vs Williams fight may be made an eliminator for that title once it's vacated (as it's expected to be so).

Yeah, like you said last time, if he does fight ggg, he'd probably prefer that all the belts be on the line. He'll likely vacate wbo jmw belt after he beats Chavez and then use that status to get a shot a Saunders.
