    Lots of other options. Anyone of the other top 6 or 7 guys could've been in there with him. Instead we get Vanes lol

      • I'd give it a pass just because it's on a 2 week notice. RIP Vanes though.

For monentary reasons, I do think that he will try to get a Canelo rematch, though I am personally not really intrigued by the thought of it. The first match was pretty boring, and GGG is not getting any younger - so I see a boring UD for Canelo if this fight happens in May 2019 (which I think it will).
          IBF is stripping GGG for this fight FYI.

          SD and Andrade will be fighting for the IBF belt.

Both are making their opponents go up a weight class and both of their opponents havent fought since 2016...and Golovkin needed a replacement, Tanks opponent was the first option. But w/e i dont mind both fights
              I don't. Vanes hasn't fought in over 2 years and hasn't been any good since 5 years ago.

                In his fight against Gutierrez he weighed in at 158

                In his fight against Davis he weighed in at 155, his opponent at 157

                But it was about time that Vanes moved up in weight, that's what boxers do, apparently.
                That's some good info you got there and much appreciated. I often forget that if you weigh anything over 154lbs (or any other weight limit for that matter) that you are automatically fighting at the next higher weight class. I'll have to blame 155lb weight class champion for my ignorance on this matter! Lol. Good stuff.

                  I think those fights and Clenelo in May of 2019 is a good way to go. He'll hold the all-time record for most title defenses at the weight and have won all four titles.

                  He beat Clenelo in September just didn't get the official win. Whitaker never got the official win over Chavez but it's still a win.

                  The first fight wasn't boring but it wasn't good either. I think a re-match would be more of the same too so don't care anymore about it but if Canelo is subjected to year round testing then I don't think he'll be the same guy so the advantages he had by cycling on and off would go away. I'd venture to say he'll be more affected by not having PED's than GGG would the extra year or two.

                      I agree. And that shows how horrible this fight is when the only fight worse is a Khan fight

                      Canelo didn't make him fight Vanes. How is this opponent Canelo's fault?
