..........

ik that is a completely shiiit fight....

imo might as well bring on chavez jr...

im sure most here wont mind him getting molly whopped again but then again canelo didn't get ko'd and neither did jacobs and chavez jr is freakin huge..... you see where im going with this especially only a month away

id rather let the other fighters get a proper training camp so no excuses are used

ok fellas good question....

if canelo gets suspended shouldn't he get stripped of the ring/lineal title?

[lopez36]

i think it's good he withdrew from the fight,,if ggg wins people will say all this affected canelo and wasn't 100%..if canelo wins they will say he benefited from peds...neither will get credit for the victory,this way they might fight in sept and canelo I believe will be tested more often and will go into the fight with ggg clean,,,hopefully ggg picks Andrade as his replacement,but either way,i still get the feeling if ggg wins again he wont get much credit,people will say Andrade didn't have enough time to train for this fight,,,,ggg lost a lot of money here

Props to GGG for having some balls! I don't think K2 is happy, but GGG should be satisfied that he stood up to the powers that be, and stood on principle! If you're not part of the solution, then you're part of the problem!

I e said it for years, drug testing will destroy this sport.

No one actually cares about drug use, we just pretend to.

I rather see wilder vs povetkin, GGG vs Canelo 2, than have clean fighters.

Wow, what an idiot statement. You clearly never wore any gloves to dare saying that... Shame on you.

[rrayvez]

you really think he ate tainted meat to duck a guy he already fought?



..........

nah, I think the more likely scenario is he's used clen for a while to make weight and gain an edge, and now he got caught and doesn't want to fight without the benefits of it.

GGG just literrally lost MILLIONS with his big ass mouth...his wife is going to kill him

No he didn't, he will sue Canelo and win the full amount of his purse, just like Wilder did and Lebedev did.

Lebedev sued Guillermo Jones, won 2.5m.
Wilder sued Povetkin, won 4.5m.

Both the full amounts of their purses.

Golvkin will sue Canelo, and more than likely, if these current cases which set precedent are respected, he will be awarded his full purse in damages.

you are aware that there was boxing there before canelo, right? And much bigger names than canelo have retired and Vegas still thrives. I doubt somebody with only 4 successful ppvs (2 of which he was the b side for) will bring Vegas to its knees if he refuses to fight there. Also, if Vegas suspends him, he won't just be going to Texas or NY because they'd hold up the suspension as well. This damages Canelos career way more than it does Vegas.

ofcourse but who is selling the tickets now????? Who is the Star???
their will not be another ticket seller for a long time. Wilder vs joshua maybe but they will probably host that in the UK

In my opinion, this was worked behind the scenes by the nsac and gb, if the nsac went on with the investigation they could probably find that canelo was cheating and would have to suspend him for a year at least, now since canelo withdraws, they just accept his position, fine him a couple of bucks and he could fight again in September, everybody safes face and we'll buy the ppvs again, as usual.
