Why didn't Canelo make the Saunders fight instead of Chavez?

[tommyg6]

Cuz had Canelo fought Saunders on Cinco de Mayo, he would've gotten that last belt and could easily extort GGG for the rest of his middleweight career but instead, he chose the money fight with Chavez.

If I was Oscar, that's what I would've done.

No money in fighting Saunders

[Canelo and GGG]

No money in BJS ,and who knows if there would be another moment to take on Chavez ,also GGG fight will happen ,so if its for 3 or 4 belts doesnt matter as much as some ppl think.

what do u mean by that?
imo, Chavez will always be there.

The All-Star lawsuit was an inevitable loss for 2017. Chavez Jr. was a safe bet in profits. 8.4 million is no chump change.

he was recently active and made 168 ,if Chavez would go missing to september he could gain weight and CW would be hard to do.Canelo wouldnt go to 168 to so imo its perfect timing for something like 165 or 164 CW.
