    This is unreal. The NASC has reinstated suspended athletes after hearings. Is this the first time in a high profile we seen a fighter withdraw from a fight? He literally threw in the towel and went NO MAS.

    Yea I can't think of anyone opting out quite like this one. That said I think it was the superior move to call it himself.

        He practically gave golovkin 2 weeks more to find someone else to fight, but somehow you are still crying, if the fight had continued you were crying corruption anyways smh

          Still ain't watched the announcement video nor this one but in defense of Canelo I'd probably cry if I lost 20M.

              I don’t think it’s a good look on Canelos part

              At least wait till the commission ruling to play out if you are innocent

              I think it’s a pride thing with Canelo he wanted to be the one to pull the plug on the fight on not get it cancelled because of his suspension for being dirty. He doesn’t like being dictated too and feels he is above the sport

                Just laughing here at the posters attempting to give this drug cheat credit for jumping before he was pushed!

                  Haye has pulled out of multiple PPVs with Fury and Bellew.

                    Fury disgraced himself and british boxing with pullouts vs klitsko. This is what happens when the authorities wont let you fight the rematch whilst still on the juice.
