Comments Thread For: Canelo May Consider Remaining at Super Middleweight

[Drew Bundini Br]

Yeah he fought DLH and Cotto after their primes were over and barely beat DLH and Cotto gave him a tough fight even though he wasn't the same after the Margarito fight!

Wake up! He beat COTTO who was bigger and a half decade younger.

DELA HATER was a few yrs older when he beat him in a tough fight but did u say the same thing when the younger PAC fought an even older weight drained DELA HATER? Did u complain about how bigger CANELO was then FLOYD?

Stop trying to be funny. CHARLO is the new 160 boogeyman. CANELO and GG would retire if they had to fight him next. Pay attention to the moves that are being made.

Boogeyman because he beat f.cuking Centeno and argie with one leg?

Hmmm. Yeah buddy

Fighters don't sign on to DAZN, DAZN is a platform, a vehicle like Showtime. The fight will be on DAZN but DAZN doesn't sign fighters they sign promoters, big difference.

If a fighter is signed with another network DAZN might agree to co-broadcast like they did with HBO but that will need to be a big deal, a match-up of proportion.

right, I get that im just stating what hearn said and how hes starting to talk.

“Obviously, if you want to fight Canelo, you have to be a DAZN fighter. If you want to fight [Anthony] Joshua, you have to be a DAZN fighter. This Saturday, in three days’ time, Demetrius Andrade goes for the world middleweight title and in ten days’ time…Danny Jacobs goes for the middleweight title. So, in ten days’ time, DAZN have the entire roster of world middleweight champions…so, people like [Jermall] Charlo, there ain’t no fights for you. If you want to be a world middleweight champion, you better join DAZN ASAP.”

Not surprised...160 has Charlo, Jacobs, Saunders and Andrade, while 168 has a string of no-hopers for champions, that includes Ramirez. Like I said when they first announced his big contract, don't expect to see even half of these fights against dangerous opponents. In ten or eleven fights we'll be lucky to see three top level opponents, if that. Floyd 2.0.

Cut the shet, T.B.E. fought everyone who had the heart to fight him! You Certified T.B.E. Hater! LMMFAO!

Canelo vs Benavidez would be a good fight minus the coke lol

Yup! If Jacobs wins he gets Canelo next year. If he loses Andrade gets him.

And then probably GGG in Sept. 2019.

Charlo will be a hard fight to make Especially if they want it to go to a purse bid and get that WBC split like GGG 1st tried doing...

I think he actually gets knocked out at that weight if he stays there.

Those guys are very big.

[Shadoww702]

How about in May. Canelo vs. Benavidez and GGG vs. Zurdo with the winners fighting in september and the losers as well. That would be huge for Cinco De Mayo and Mexican Independence dayS.

That would be pretty cool. I wouldnt mind seeing that mini tournament

[Shadoww702]

He's just promoting the fight. Roy Jones said the same thing before and shortly after beating John Ruiz after jumping to heavyweight. Hey maybe I'll stay at heavyweight and fight Lewis or Tyson. But after winning the belt he ultimately did what everyone thought and moved back down to his natural weight because heavyweight is too damn big for him. Canelo giving up too much height, length and weight to stay at 168 plus the bigger money fights will be at 160 with current middleweights or fighters moving up to middleweight soon. Easier to sell your fight by saying well I'm fighting Fielding first and will see how I feel how I perform then determine what weight I fight at after the fight then it is tell the world after this fight I'm going back to 160. This is a stay busy quick turnaround fight that just so happens to be at 168 to add the footnote to his career 3 division world champ nothing more.

Exactly! Hes trying to sale the fight nothing more nothing less.

Just seeing the huge size difference is enough to know Canelo dont belong at this class.

SMW is garbage. I guess he's thinking about staying there since there are 2 Mexican champions. Disappointing.
