Lara, Angulo, Kirkland were "Middleweights" before CANELO....

[GGG Gloveking]

we are talking 1 pound dont be ridiculous, canelo was still a jmw champ in 2017... and he isnt the only one, theres plenty of jmw fights with multiple fighters above 154, but they dont fight vs mws, they fight cw fights vs fellow jmws... you guys need to learn the difference between fighting at a cw and moving up a to a new division.. a fight 1 lb above the limit with no titles at stake doesnt really affect anybody , unless you are a dense fanboy...

That 1 lb is the difference between 2 divisions. There's a reason we have definitive weight class, it's not the 160ish division. You say Canelo was a 154 champ in 2017. At the same time, he was a middleweight champ in 2015, and defended his middleweight belt in 2016. When was the last time the 154 champ defended his 154 belt?

What weight class would those weights fall in? Remember, the WBC said "Every fight falls in a particular class"

put your fkn calculator away, you muppet

I told you that boxing is not a maths game

it has nothing to do with what a fighter weighs

in order to be considered a GENUINE middleweight..... a fighter would AT LEAST be preparing to weigh-in at 160, in order to fight a middleweight opponent.....

..... and IN ADDITION to preparing to weigh-in at 160, in order to fight a middleweight opponent..... a fighter would need to be conditioned to that weight, to be regarded as a GENUINE middleweight

Kell Brook scoffed cheeseburgers to weigh 159 for Golovkin..... which was a big mistake, his camp should take the blame for that..... he needed to win that fight as the smaller man, using his speed/skills..... he should have weighed around 152-154

Kell Brook weighed 159 lbs for Golovkin..... but if you tell me that Brook is a genuine middleweight, then you will look like an even bigger fool than you did when you ran around calling 155lb Canelo a middleweight

" he's (Brook) not a middleweight. He's just not "
~ Gennady Golovkin, immediately following the fight

1) grow up, you excuse-making muppet
2) learn the sport

If you're fighting at 155, you're technically fighting as a Middleweight because it falls in that division. It's like saying if two welterweights weigh in at 146, it's not a true welterweight fight. obviously it is.

Canelo simply couldn't make light-middleweight anymore but didn't want to make the step up to 160 for a while, which is quite poor really, but he was the A-side and took advantage of it. It was obvious they didn't want to fight GGG earlier than they did. Even Canelo-weight was killing him but he would make it to avoid 160.

De La Hoya was saying Canelo's body isn't ready for middleweight, but then straight after he said that his body was ok to fight at 164 v Chavez but not 160 for GGG?... of course, because Chavez is a bum. His body "adjusting" to 160 was never an issue, fighting GGG earlier was.

Canelo had been a middleweight for a good 18 months or so, but they did anything to not fight GGG until they were essentially backed into a corner and had no more excuses regarding weight and other thing, and wanted to see GGG fading.

I do believe at one point Canelo was adjusting to moving up, but the 12-18 months before the GGG fight was simply about avoiding him. And after all that, they still had to get gift draw.

an extremely ****ty post

same as any post/sentence that starts with " technically "

starting a sentence with the word " technically ", means that you just divorced the conversation from reality

there is no " technically " in boxing

starting a sentence with " technically "..... means that you are talking ****..... as-in, your sentence would be complete and utter bullshht, without inserting the word "technically"..... and is still highly inaccurate, because "technically" changes nothing

" technically " 154.1 is middleweight..... but nobody worth 10c would even suggest such a thing..... "technically" is rubbish

we are talking 1 pound dont be ridiculous, canelo was still a jmw champ in 2017... and he isnt the only one, theres plenty of jmw fights with multiple fighters above 154, but they dont fight vs mws, they fight cw fights vs fellow jmws... you guys need to learn the difference between fighting at a cw and moving up a to a new division.. a fight 1 lb above the limit with no titles at stake doesnt really affect anybody , unless you are a dense fanboy...

that is exactly right

these idiots are fire-worshiping cavemen

put away your calculator, you muppets

Did this ****** mother fuçker really just say boxing has nothing to do with what a fighter weighs?

no, I did not..... you gay fcuk-knuckle.....

I said, what a fighter weighs has no bearing on whether he should be considered a GENUINE middleweight..... and then, I gave a great example as proof

but let me guess...... you were too busy standing in a airport bathroom taking selfies of a corn-fed loser, to notice?

if you think that Kell Brook is a genuine middleweight, because he weighed 159 for Golovkin..... then you should be tied up, p1ssed on, and dragged behind a horse

[aboutfkntime]

like I always said.....

casual-fans are totally clueless about styles/levels/weight

You add words like genuine or legit to qualify middleweight because you know your argument is sh it. Where in boxing lexicon is genuine middleweight defined, and what is the alternative term? Illegitimate middleweight? Faux middleweight? Fugazi middleweight?

Or is it... fuçking puzzy hiding at 155 from GGG... yeah, that's the term

so ggg is not a mw then... you are willing to give a pass based on the number of fights but not the amount of lbs.. who made that rule??

What? I'm not "giving a pass" based on anything. Maybe a one-off fight, but I didn't give GGG that benefit of the doubt. I said when GGG weighed in at 161, he was a SMW. Just like when Canelo fought above the JMW limit of 154, he was a MW.
