Comments Thread For: Canelo's Coach: If No WBO at 160 - We Want To Unify at 168

That's why I love Canelo, he is always proving himself

GGG arguably beat Canelo twice though. I had the second fight a draw but thought he won the first.

Meanwhile the boxing world saw a draw in the 1st fight and a close but clear win in the 2nd fight

Viva la MEXICO

Well, just to be a stickler, Byrd saw the first fight as a 10-2 whitewash, and Trella was the only person in said boxing world that saw Canelo win the 7th round (including Byrd!), so those judges only represent the 'boxing world' in only the most technical sense, the 'boxing world' knows what it saw, but anyway, bygones....

I really hope Canelo goes for it, unifying at 160 and then 168 on top of everything else he's done would be one for the ages, and I wouldn't bet against him being able to do it, and at 28 he's got time. Definitely preferable to going the cash route which would be GGG III (although I guess he could do both).

Why the first thing yall say is somebody gonna get stopped? Canelo only stopping C level fighters.

But he is still winning against A level fighters like Jacobs and GGG. Charlo is B level which is why he is only fighting bums at 160. He and Andrade should fight each other, winner gets a shot at the MW king.

reynoso needs to stop wearing them extra small track suits

Spare a thought for Jermall Charlo. Yes, he was unimpressive against Korobov, but he is the no. 1 contender for the WBC title, the mandatory, and just doesn't get a shot. Charlo would possibly make a better fight of it than Jacobs did against Canelo.

That's Charlo & PBC's fault if he doesn't get a shot
Not Canelo problem

Byrd's card was an embarrassment for boxing. There should be criminal consequences for that degree of fraud

Nonetheless the outcome of a draw was correct. Round by round scoring of 1k+ fans had it 6-6. GGG won the event in the first fight, but it was a draw.

Rematch was basically the same except roles switched. Canelo did just enough for 7 rounds imo, but a draw wouldn't be a stretch.

Anyone - any and all boxing media or trainers and fighters - that had GGG winning the rematch either DKSAB or cannot score a fight. Best outcome for Borat in rematch was a draw

[sicko]

He's already Unified IMO...WBO don't f#cking Matter lets be honest


Nobody gives a SH#T about the WBO and it has the least Prestige of all the BELTS. WBO is just slightly better than the IBO

WBC, WBA and IBF in that Order, after that nobody gives a damn! So yeah it is not mandatory that he gets that Belt but he might as well do it

Poo Poo already begging haymon to impose 24/7 testing on canelo to have at least the juice advantage

I was excited for wilder vs fury, I was excited for Spence it vs Garcia.....nothing else about the sport has had me excited recently. Boxing is in a bit of a lull right now
