    Something Seems Off About Canelo and GBP

    You'd think that if the rematch were to happen in May, like De La Hoya said, it would've been official by now. Somehow, Canelo got the #1 spot under the WBO, so now he's Saunders's mandatory. However, I doubt Canelo would wanna fight Saunders, after the boxing lesson the latter gave Lemieux. Last I heard about De La Hoya, he wants to fight Mayweather or something. Maybe I'm just jumping to conclusions, but it's like Canelo and Golden Boy Promotions are having a tough time choosing between GGG and Saunders. It'd suck if GGG has to wait until September, since he could age overnight.

    Canelo is winning the rematch, that's all you need to know.

      I wouldn't have thought they would announce a may fight now until around late January.

      No point right now, most of the public are thinking about Christmas/New year and all that madness. Nobody is doing business right now announcing fights. They will wait for things to settle down in the new year for maximum exposure and people's attention. That's how marketing works.

      Unless fighters are already fighting in January/February/possibly march, pretty much nobody has a fight signed or being announced for these reasons.

            Saunders won't be an easy fight for Canelo, and they know it now. Let's say he does take that route and they have a lineal unification bout at the end of the year, who does GGG face in the meantime?

            Dominic Wade rematch? Kell Brook rematch? He isn't going to rematch Jacobs

                I dont give a sht about no Ggg rematch anyways. First fight was whatevers.

                Canelo-Saunders is intriguing and id rather see that.

                  I think it's hilarious people on here are sooo sure Canelo will win the rematch.
                  Based on what? He got his **** rocked in the first fight. I watched it. Live. In regard to Saul's performance, that was the saddest thing I've ever seen.
