Comments Thread For: Hearn: I Believe Canelo Wants Jacobs, I Know DAZN Wants It

[Alan Smithee]

Happy New year's to you too man!
Hope the new year brings you and your family many blessings and I hope we as boxing fans get the fights we most wanna watch!
You know what, I think Thurman-Lopez is gonna be a fun fight to watch.
Lopez always comes to fight and Thurman hasn't fought in a while so I expect him to be a little rusty...
I still favor Thurman to win but Lopez is gonna take it to Thurman so it'll be a fun fight to watch live..
Jennings-Rivas is a decent fight. I think Jennings can given Dillon White, Joseph Parker, and Chisora some problems... I don't give him much of a chance against the top guys in the division though...
Would love to see him fight the fighters I just mentioned though...

I was always a big Jennings fan He is just not big enough for the top guys. Would love to see him stay busy. I believe that him and kownacki would be an action fight. kownacki always looks out of shape and sloppy but he throws a lot of punches and is fairly entertaining. I think he should get past Gerald Washington in January.

Jacobs will beat Canelo. He just too good ad too complete a fighter. He won't stand there to take body shots but will use movement, head movement the jav and everything else.

Have you NOT ben watching the scorecards against Canelo? He lost almost every single around against Mayweather and he got a draw. Smh.

Because the WBC ordered GGG to fight Jermall Charlo in an elimination bout, and Charlo declined the fight. Charlo has been the WBC interim champion since April. The WBC allowed Canelo to fight Fielding @ 168, so on May 4th Canelo should be fighting Charlo or a unification bout @ 160 or 168! Nothing Less!

November 19, 2018:

At the WBC's annual convention in October, the sanctioning body approved Canelo's request to take a voluntary fight.

On December 15th, Canelo will move up to super middleweight to challenge WBA "regular" champion Rocky Fielding.

“He’s a champion and the rules allow a champion to request a special fight, as we have done countless times in the past. So he will be fighting, he will be representing the WBC and after the fight we will see what the decision is," Sulaiman said to Boxing News.

Golovkin made a request to receive an immediate trilogy fight with Canelo - but the WBC denied that request and ordered him to face the WBC interim-champion, Charlo, in a final eliminator. The winner would land Canelo.

Golovkin's Promoter: Charlo Fight is Not Going To Happen

And your point is? Like I said Canelo has faced nothing but champions lately. That was my point as you said he needs to fight champions not bums. Fielding was a champion 8lbs up from Canelo's weight.
Canelo will fight Jacobs or Callum Smith in May I would think but after Charlo's performance I would jump on that fight if I was Canelo because Charlo is a bum!!
That would be a bum fight sense you say he needs to fight him.

I never said Canelo "he need to fight champions, not bums!" I said he needs to fight a champion or get stripped! Fielding was his voluntary, GGG doesn't want to fight Charlo, so Charlo should be his mandatory now, and Charlo has been the "interim" champion since April! It's either a unification @ 160 or 168, or it has to be Charlo!
