Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Fielding: All Networks, Platforms in Play, Says Gomez

[PunchyPotorff]

Obviously just testing the waters at SMW, but still to be commended for going in there that soon after the GGG battle royale. And while his opponent has a very solid punch... Fielding is simply too easy to hit. This will end mid-rounds likely. Interesting and fun fight though while it lasts. Curious to see what the rest of the card looks like. AND of course what his next move after this one will be.

Looks like Triple L will try to use this to move up in weight to avoid the Jermall Charlo fight....LMAO

Your kidding I hope considering Canelo dodged nobody in his career. When all said he would not fight Trout when Trout was top 154lber he took that 0 from Trout. When they said he wouldn't fight Lara he did, when everyone said he dropped the WBC title to dodge GGG no it was the 15 day time frame and him not giving into there demands. He then fought GGG as his 1st middle weight fight to a draw to later beat GGG. Now he is going to jump up for a volunteer defense to get another title at 168??? He will com back down and face the winner of GGG vs Charlo. I gurantee he beats Charlo way easier then GGG.
GGG is the one never willing to challenge himself.

So this will force Golovkin to take the Charlo bout? It sounded like GGG wanted to face Canelo next.

LOL @ PPV...yeah....riiiiight.

Nah, Pu55y. GGG is waiting it out until May for the trilogy.

Canelo cherry pick about as bad as Sugar Ray grabbing a title from someone named Donnie Lalonde...lol!!

You may or may not be old enough to remember Lalonde,
but I don't think his name deserved a "lol!" just because you
are unaware of some of the fighters from that era.
There is no shame in being unaware of fighters from the past,
but I would have expected more from somebody who uses
Hagler's name in their profile.

There is a difference between defending a fight and defending it as a good fight. I do not recall many, maybe a few who thought the Vanes fight was a good fight. Most were defending why the fight happened.

I have no problem with this fight, Canelo is coming back quickly and deserves from my perspective a fight like this. But this isn’t a good fight. Fields is a stiff.

Nobody seriously believes this is a "good fight", but it's at least a "Rocky" moment. Also, it's at a new weight class.

Canelo isn't fighting someone coming off a 2 year layoff where he went 3-3 at JMW before dragging him up to 160 to fight on 2-weeks notice. Vanes was also never a champion in his entire career

See how simply moving up to 168 to fight a CHAMPION is different from Vanes? It's night and day.

As you mentioned also it's a quick turnaround.

How can anyone not like this fight? It's better than NOT fighting ffs...and it's gonna be on basic cable !!

ever notice they no longer bring up this lil gem they used to say daily:
Ggg:gimmie my belt puta,
Canelo: ok papi"?

Its because they have no excuses left for triple L. They can no longer regurgitate this: "ggg only cares about the belts,hes a true mw people's champ,not businessman like canyellow,ggg fights for honor not money,he would rather fight Kell Brook at full mw because canelos disrespecting the sport with a cw" they can no longer say"if Canyellow stopped ducking ggg hed get kod by rd 7( able sanchez gem btw)

Nowadays they'd rather cry about what canelos doing(despite his whole career shītting all over L's resume).

Deryevchenko:"gimmie my belt putavich",ggg: "I was just keeping it warm for you boss,honest; I only put it on to make sure its ready for you,...Able go get that bum off the floor he's my next opponent"

I can find links to articles if anyone requests:

GGG said he would only go down in weight for Floyd @ 154..."for honor" and I'm sure not for "business".

GGG accused Canelo of being a "businessman" before the 1st fight then held out in the 2nd fight over..."business" (requiring an even split of PPV)

GGG said he couldn't fight Ward because he wasn't popular enough. He also required a 164 catchweight (something GGG refused to do for Canelo, Cotto, and Kell Brook - all smaller fighters) while offering to fight at 168 for Froch and JCC Jr.

A spade's a spade. And a CUCK's a CUCK.

I don’t consider this guy a champion. He has some BS “title”. The guys who have that title in other weight classes are laughable. Look at the HW and Cruiserweight division. Who the f?? And no if Golovkin fights and beats Murata I’ll say the same thing, has this same title.

You are really stretching this champion bit LOL! No one is buying Fielding as a champion.

Canelo gets a gimme fight IMO, no issue with that. I had no issue with Golovkin fighting Vanes given the circumstances. I did not give him any credit for the win nor will I give Canelo for beating this stiff. Both are terrible fights that I understand.

It is better than no fight because as a fan of boxing I’ll watch top end fighters even if they are beating up stiffs. I won’t pay of course. As for making notable history it is no better than not fighting in my book.

Just like I said with Golovkin and Vanes, let’s see what he does after this fight. That’s what really matters. Get your pay day gimme fight and then get back to real fights.

Everyone acting like the WBC is running the show.

Canelo and Golovkin will do what they want. If they want another fight they’ll do it on their terms.
