Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo's KO Opens Doors To New Opponents At 168

[yoshik]

Canelo has NEVER beaten a top-tier fighter convincingly. NEVER.

[yoshik]

Yea one freaking fight.

Did you forget he has the most stacked resume of any boxer right now?

He has one stay busy fight and people start talking all this shiiit.

Canelo has NEVER had a decisive victory against ANY top 5 fighters in his long resume of BS.

Man they're still complaining that 1.5 years turned GGG old??? Yet he poofed turned back into his prime against Vanes again lol.

he fought amir khan and liam smith instead of ggg. there was no excuse for that. those weren't "money" fights they were "avoidance" fights.yes you can give him credit for finally fighting in a somewhat timely fashion unlike floyd who would have waited at least 5 years or maybe never but those are low standards to clear

[The D3vil]

He said 160 was too big for him and drained himself at 155 for years waiting for GGG to get old...

Maybe he just naturally gained 13 lbs in a little over a year, man *sarcasm*

Canelo vs Pepe Lemule at 168 in May the groundwork is already being set for it with lemiux team stating he moving up next fight

That puts David Lemieux back on menu. There seems to be a predictable pattern. That said, if the middle's are in there prime we should expect Canelo to pick either a weak super middle, Lemieux or a slow plodder with a name coming up. Got it....Munguia.

In other words, No CHARLO,ANDRADE or JACOBS for CANELO. Also, he will let GG grow a year or two older b4 a rematch.

If Canelo fights Smith then I will eat a full raw onion. He ain't fighting anybody with a pulse, watch out for the bum of the month club. Why not fight Charlo at 160 or Jacobs? Because those 2 haven't shown signs of wear and tear.

hate to break it to all you, but looks like canelo-jacobs is next..

Both Eric Gomez (@makeawar ) and Sir Eddie Hearn (@EddieHearn ) say that they aren't far along, at all, in terms of any Canelo-Jacobs negotiations, as of this moment. Hearn, also notes that Jacobs is still with Matchroom Sports but a 'television free agent'... #boxing

You didn’t read the tweet right

[BendOver]

He also has the best resume in the sport and just fought Golovkin back to back.

Are you crazy? Just because he loss twice against 3g, once against Lara and once vs may. Doesn't mean he has the best resume in boxing. I'm pretty sure Pacquio have a good case.
