    Do you think Canelo/Golovkin should be cancelled?

    After the failed drug test...do you think the fight should be cancelled?

    Not because I think Canelo cheated. Rather, because Canelo will get no credit after winning, and risks big humiliation in failure. If it falls apart, Canelo should cherry pick someone like Saunders.

      Morally yes as he failed the test. You can't apply different standards to different fighters.
      I would hate to see it cancelled. Canelo has nowhere to go really. He doesn't want to fight Saunders, that's for sure.

        Its up to GGG its his unbeaten record on line.
        Nelo should maybe cancel as he will get no credit.

            No way. It's GGG's biggest payday and probably the biggest fight in boxing. I can't see them cancelling it. Plus, if GGG wins, he looks terrific, if he loses, you already know what we will be reading about for the subsequent months.

              From a financial side it would be ****** to cancel especially for ggg. Canelo is on the losing end no matter what.

                Canelo would be in a bad place if the fight was cancelled because he failed a PED test. His PPV numbers prove he needs the right opponents to make big money, and he already lost a lot of fans and respect by giving up his WBC belt to avoid GGG then stalling for 2 years before finally fighting him, getting a gift draw from the Vegas judges, then stalling again for another 8 months to age Golovkin even more.

                He doesn't want to fight Saunders, and that option wouldn't be there for him anyway. If GGG vs Canelo gets cancelled, Golovkin would fight BJS. Canelo would be nowhere.
