IBF, WBC, WBA, IBO middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (36-0, 33 KOs) is hoping Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. will grab an upset victory over Saul "Canelo" Alvarez on May 6th from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

It's a surprise that Canelo easily handed his belt to GGG coz Canelo was saying before that Mexicans don't **** around.

It's a surprise that a Mexican champ will just give up his belt without a fight. haha

I like how the writer left out Golovkin wanting a 50/50 split for a Canelo fight, which was in the same interview.

He wasn't asking for a 50-50 when Canelo was the champ. Remember it was going to a purse bid and Canelo had a sizable advantage in the split. He withdrew when the purse bid was coming up.

My prediction:
This thread goes ******ed and reaches 10pages..

This is true, Canelo coughed up the belt. At the same time showing how watered down they have become. GGG has the belts but his PPV wont do half of Canelo/Chavez does. He may hold the belts but Canelo still holds the cards for the fight. This is why I say take the money and expose Canelo if it is as easy as he and his team think. I mean he really cant think he truly has much say in a fight that will mainly be carried off Canelo's name.

Technically, that's exactly what happened

He said
I'm not fighting,I don't care, have the belt

And it's tarnished his image ever since. No matter how you try to spin it

Can't recall GGG saying that Canelo is an easy fight. GGG only loves to fight Canelo but Nelo rather give the belt to GGG without a fight.

Canelo dropped the title because of Golovkin getting 45%.
