Comments Thread For: Canelo's Possible Return: December 15 Reserved at MSG, MGM

[_Rexy_]

Personally i think hes done at 160.
He needs to move up to 168.
He's too slow for middleweight now and hes not getting any younger.
Canelo took his passion in this fight.
Imo.

while I think 168 is the weaker divison (by far) that could be a good move by G. Move up at the end of his career and get a strap or two. (GGG could beat the winner of Groves/Smith easier than GGG/Canelo III)

Worthless article in my opinion. They even said they first have to find out if he even wants to fight then.

I think Canelo should rest until Cinco De Mayo Weekend 2019, and he should NOT fight GGG next! I think he should fight Charlo or Spence Jr. in Texas! Charlo has a following from Houston, and Spence Jr. has the same in Dallas, and he has a good relationship with Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys! A fight with either one would be very profitable, especially if Jerry Jones gets involved!

December looks like it is way overcrowded this year. There's a possibility of
Lomachenko-Pedraza
Khan-Brook
May-Pac 2
Canelo fight
Wilder-Fury
Spence-Garcia
Whyte-Chisora

There could be other Dazn/WBSS cards that month that haven't been announced yet.

He did look a lil thin and pale??? 168 vs. Zurdo would be a big hit!

Personally I think GGG would knock Zurdo out. And Grooves. Probably Benavidez also.

The best fight would be GGG vs. Jose Uzi

I would put $$$$ on GGG in any of those fights. None of these guys even crack P4P top 20. Maybe even 25-30???

I like Zurdo but guys he should be SMOKING are always taking him the distance.

If he moves up and gets another belt or 2 would really put him in the HOFame.

And he can still beat guys at 160 also if he stays. Not bad going 0-1-1 against a P4P top 5 in his PRIME. And could easily have 2 wins or 2 draws...

Personally I have them 1-1 a piece.

1st fight 7-5 GGG
2nd fight 7-5 Canelo

Watching GGG against Canelo you could easily see hes lost his speed and reflexes since getting older.
Not saying hes done I just think he would have more success if he moved up.
Maybe take the Canelo 3 if its on offer then move up were these guys aren't as quick as this new crop of 160s.
I can definately see his power coming up with him.

I think Canelo has earned whatever fight he wants next. His last 2 fights, especially the fight this last weekend- were classics.
Regardless who you think should have won, both Canelo and Golovkin laid it out for us, they're likely the toughest 2 guys at middleweight considering what they put each other through.

Don't sleep on Lemieux either, the true thing has already been said- styles make fights.

Lemieux is an enormous (I heard 180+ on Saturday?) middleweight who only knows how to throw the fastball. I think Canelo has too much skill to lose to that, but Lemieux has more one-shot KO capability than either GGG or Canelo at middleweight. He just doesn't quite know how to land it on guys like them.

I saw that also but he can still crack em and has one of the best chins Ive ever seen. Slower guys he can hit cleanly and Knock them out. None of these guys at 168 have one hit power. I think if he moves up he would have the edge in power to almost all of them.

Yes exactly.
I think if he stays at 160 it's only gonna get worse for him from now on.
He's a great champion who couldn't get the big fights in his prime and it would be sad to see him lose to this new crop of guys.
He can make a splash at 168 solidify his legacy and retire a champion.
He's already made alot of money.
Just think Canelo took alot out of him in that fight.

Yup! Lemuix is a 168lber with REAL power but slower and GGG KHTFO!!!

Speed/Highly skilled fighters are GGG's Kryptonite now with his age.
