What's wrong with Canelo doing a stay busy fight?

[BoxingIsGreat]

Because he’s not won a fight in years lost twice to GGG, lost to a Lara, Trout and Cotto and failed multiple PED tests. Running scared of Jacobs, Andrade, Smith etc:

He’s a coward and a bum.

You are on a roll!

I haven't got a HUGE problem with a fight but there are a couple better fighters/title holders he could have fought at 168lb.

This fight just doesnt excite me and for the amount of money he gets paid and the fact it will be PPV in the US means the quality of opponents for him and others like him needs to be higher.

Are you serious? Isn't it on DAZN?
Time to cancel my DAZN free trial!

There is nothing wrong with this Canelo fight I don't get the complaining

[mathed]

Clenela is fighting some grocery bagger from the corner market. If that's the caliber opponent that she needs to fight in order to not rely on the judges to win, then so be it.

I heard that Khan said he's willing to move up to 168 to take on the cheating chica again for the cash and if Haye is willing to move down to 160, that fight is possible as well. Plenty of opportunities for the fabricated star.

[IMDAZED]

Absolutely nothing at all.

He normally fights Cinco De Mayo and September 16th (Mexico's Independence day). This time he decided he wanted a stay busy fight in December. Something to keep him busy.

Naturally, having fought GGG back to back he wanted something easier, but not too much easier while he waits for his real fight dates.

So what's the big deal?

The other option was his usual 2 fights a year so Im happy to have this bonus fight from a fighter im a fan of. He could have never scheduled this fight and no one would have started to biiitch or think anything of him only fighting twice a year.

I always hated that Oscar, Floyd and Canelo started this 2 fights a year trend. When Canelo announced he would add in a bonus fight it was a pleasant surprise...until i saw all the ****** hate.

I guess he would have been better off skipping this tune up in December and waiting until May. Then again, his haters would find other ways to hate.

Look at the calibre of people Floyd would fight after. hiatus? People like Marquez a pound for pound fighter. When you claim to be the biggest name in the sport you don't fight bums.

GGG fans are mad that Canelo is fighting again so soon after his victory, while GGG is still recovering from the punishment he took from king nelo.

Golovkin fans are mad that Canelo cherry picks when he has plenty of time to select a credible opponent and gets a pass. When Canelo ****s up Golovkin s biggest payday and he has to scramble to find an opponent he gets crapped on by idiots like you.

Yep Canelo "cherry picks" but his resume is light years better than gee's. Makes sense.

Gee's whole career is a cherry

[Chrismart]

I've no problem with it. He's just fought GGG back to back.

I'll be a bit 'meh' if he faces Lem next though.

Who the F did Canelo fight?? Mayweather beat him. Cotto did surprisingly well against a much younger and bigger Canelo. Chavez was a walking dead he was so weight drained. Canelo dwarfed Khan who has a China chin. Now he's going after Fielding. He fought Golovkin when G is at the end of his career and lost both times.
