Comments Thread For: Andrade: Golovkin, Loeffler Rejected Me, They Wanted Rolls Fight

Nope. Fielding and Roll are in the same category. And Canelo moved up and went for the easy belt exactly because of that.

Describe the “same” category.

Canelo needed a stay busy fight to feel out Jacobs who was, aside from Chavez Jr., his biggest foes to date. Fielding’s style didn’t pose a threat and it’s merits included practical earning. The WBA Regular at 168, the “Regular” was what Jacobs and GGG themselves had at one point.

Rolls, whatever his rank was, is not in the same category in boxing standards as your fictitious placements.

Let's see them fight. I'd enjoy seeing these two guys go at it.

Same category has in "not that good, and easy win for adversary", so basically a stay busy kind of irrelevant fight.
Is that clearer now?

PS: I kind of see now why your rep power = 0 ... You don't do nuance and/or subtle.

Looks like everything is going to plan.

Seems like Canelo got lucky with the IBF since GGG now has more opportunities to get a belt. This time Canelo at least gets to unify with GGG, assuming GGG wins or Canelo wins in their next fights.
