I don't have a problem w/ him going for the money. It's his fans that swear up and down that he does no wrong is what gets me to LOL each and every time their made to look like fools. Good for ggg if he gets the Canelo cashout. Sucks that he won't rematch DJ as the fight was good enough to warrant one, imo, but oh well.
Would Canelo not be a bigger and better way of building a legacy? He's a better fighter, a bigger name (meaning defeating him would draw a whole lot more eyeballs onto GGG for the foreseeable future), and unifying belts can always wait till later. Also, Oscar told GGG that if he fought in June, then any chance of the September clash with Alvarez wouldn't occur. So he's taking his chances that Oscar is being genuine.
What has Canelo done at 160 that proves he's a threat at middleweight? We don't know how good he is at MW because he's never fought the full MW limit. Would you favor Canelo over Jacobs or Charlo right now?

He practically drains himself to make 155 and has been doing so for quite awhile. You're not gonna tell me that not forcing himself to lose about five or six pounds is gonna make any damn difference as to his performance. It won't.
And resume wise, he's easily the best fighter that GGG has ever faced. No denying it.

Yet he makes 155 Everytime he tries. Five or six lbs makes a big difference, hell, people say the 2lbs Floyd made Canelo lose made a difference. People say the five or six lbs Jacobs outweighed GGG by made a difference. There are weight classes separated by five or six lbs.
Canelo does have the best resume of a fighter he's faced. That resume was built at 154 & 155 not 160
2) A Canelo fight makes GGG at least 3X $$$ as much as a BJS fight. You're complaining about a prize fighter chasing a big money fight? Especially since GGG is BETTER THAN BJS at MW.
3) You're seriously accusing ANYONE of ducking BJ freaking Saunders? Ducking Saunders??? LLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLL.
Sine when is Saunders some fearsome force. What has he done, edged Andy Lee.
Now Saunders would be a solid MW fight, but sorry, no, if you don't fight Saunders, its not "ducking", especially if you fight 2 MUCH BETTER FIGHTERS instead (Jacobs & Canelo)

Five or six pounds makes pretty much no difference unless you're of the really, really small divisions where as skinny as a toothpick. The people claiming Canelo was drained at 152 against Floyd or that Jacobs' extra weight are being idiots, simple as that.
By the time Canelo rehydrates on fight night, he looks as big or bigger as GGG himself always does. You really don't think he would have moved up already if it were not for GGG waiting for him? He's stalled and drained himself at Junior Middleweight for so long for a reason.
