Canelo chooses to say no to GGG rematch in September....

[Ray*]

I always thought he'd go after Saunders before he went after GGG. I thought he would do that, win, and really jerk GGG since he wants that WBO belt so bad to be undisputed.

I actually think Saunders is a tougher fight for him than Gennady.

I doubt it. Off of a year off that's a bad style match-up especially if he's testing 10 or more weeks out. He'd probably need (and let's face it get) GBP judges to get him the "W" in that one.

Definitely a difficult fight and style.

Inactivity doesn't matter, remember?
How Mosley was away for 1 year.
How Kirkland was away for 2 years.
Angulo 10 months

Hope the rematch never happens. GGG needs to move on. Stop sniffing Canelo's ass.

why do we even need a rematch, we all saw who won the fight. they can rematch and the same thing will happen again, canelo has too much influence to lose a decision

I saw a draw... you saw b@lls in your face

Goldenboy just released a statement saying Canelo will fight in September, of course, no opponent was named.

Good point. I forgot about that.

There is no way to justify that either. A 40yr old who took a year off. A limited Kirkland that was off for 17 long months.

GGG doesn't get a pass here either though. He's facing someone who hasn't fought in 2 years and was at a different weight class.

I'm all about fairness here. Wrong is wrong.

If he comes back off of his 6 month suspension, and chooses to NOT fight GGG in the promised rematch:

- Will Canelo fans defend him and say "well, he is coming off of a knee injury, he needs a tune-up so we understand" ??

- Will GGG fans be okay with Gennady going after Saunders for a unification instead and forgetting about Canelo forever?

- Will Canelo fans be upset and feel as though Canelo owes that to himself and to boxing?

nah, the fight is coming, ibf allowed ggg a tune up cuz they dont want to risk the canelo payday, i mean they all had to wait for canelo to stand a position on this... i wouldnt worry much about fantasy scenarios... hopefully canelos right hand can be better after the lay off and he dont have to protect it by wearing pillow gloves this time..

I don't think the rematch happens until next year

If Canelo doesn't fight Golovkin his reputation will be crap and that includes in Mexico. I think he cares about that. He is the only one who could make this fight not happen.

Assuming GGG can keep winning.
