    I don't mind if Canelo moves up to 168lbs as long as he fights the best in that weight. I think he would, so I don't have a problem with it.

    Charlo, Andrade, Jacobs aren't anything special to be hanging around a weight class for them. They're good and would make great fights, but that's it.

    Not like we're talking about superstars or boxing marvels. The only star in the weight class other than Canelo was GGG, and he already faced him. The rest are mostly unknowns to the mainstream. So what difference does it make.

    The difference in talent between Super and middle isn't as wide as some people make it out to be.

      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.”
      Talk about blackballing! The nfl does the same thing to players....!

          Hard no.

          We don't need that in boxing. Mayweather can go and do circuses in Moscow fighting Habib if he wants to, but I want to watch classic boxing.

          I hate drunk ass clown douche bags like McGregor/Diaz who talk 100 words of rambling without saying anything or having a point.

          Boxing has a press conference mild scuffle from time to time, but the UFC is absolute out of control douche baggery.

          ****s juvenile and if you like that environment, head over to the UFC. That's why I don't watch that sport anymore. Too many MMA 'bros'. Fighters and fans are one.

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

            And then probably GGG in Sept. 2019.

            Jacobs 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 Jacobs fight would be quicker to make before the Andrade fight....

              How about Nelo & Triple L fight Jermall Charlo?!?!

                Don't support any ways to make Nelo/Triple L 3....I don't want to see that again cuz we already know Nelo is the better fighter period.

                  Canelo is not much shorter than Tyson. he seems to be very thick too(apart from his snake) so if can pack some more muscles he could reing at 168, he has the skills, IQ and jaw to keep him there

                    Just talk at this point. We will see what he does after fighting Fielding.

                      Sometimes certain fighters are pushed to be a star like they did with Triple L. It showed when he failed to present if he was worth it when the competition stepped up the second he fought Jacobs. Charlo, Andrade & Jacobs hardly get the chance to show their worth. I want to see Nelo & Triple L fight these dudes, NOT run from them & go to 168 where the comp. is not strong.
