    Who could GGG have fought that was more important than Canelo?

    Since 2010, “nobody wanted to fight GGG,” and K2 never had any money in boxing to afford options... who should GGG have fought?

    *btw the “K2 didn’t have any money” bit was sarcasm...

        Don’t insult our intelligence with silly questions! We all know Canelo was considered lower than GGG skills wise! And danger wise this was never supposed to be a dangerous fight for monster ggg! If ggg wanted legacy he should have fought a more accomplished fighter like Andre Ward, but we all know that since it was mostly hype he couldn’t fight Ward because the prof is he had his hands full and couldn’t even handle little Canelo

          I was mocking people who use those two as evidence that GGG has ducked anyone. The idea that he doesn’t try to fight the top of the division is absolutely insane.

            He offered to come down to 154 for Floyd. Neither Cotto or Martinez wanted to fight him when they were MW champs.

              But Loeffler, Abel, and GGG said if the “fight makes sense financially” to move anywhere outside of 160. North or south...

              Therefore, Canelo told fighthype that if GGG wanted some action it’d have to be at 155. When he said that Floyd was already retired and Caneo hadn’t fought Cotto yet. Who is else makes “financial sense” other than Canelo when telling the public “we’d move but the fight has to make sense.”

              What “sense” was K2 limited to that didn’t insult industry standards in making fights?

              GGG said he’d fight Pacquiao. There’s actual video footage of that on YouTube. “Would you fight the winner of Mayweather vs Pacquiao?” GGG: “absolutely!”

                Why would a MW title fight have to be held at a CW? Especially for a fighter like Canelo who needs to drain himself just to make 154. So a 155 CW, but two fights later he's fighting JCC Jr. at 164? Meh.

                Golovkin was asked if he would fight Pacquiao, he didn't call him out or call for the fight. Golovkin offered Floyd a fight at 154 going back to 2015 while Floyd was still active.

                  He fought at 64 to get his body used to the extra weight. Did he not fight ggg soon after? Because ggg said anyone from 54-68 but not canelo only full 60 lol

                    GhostofDempsey can’t take the heat. There have been numerous bouts, title fights, stay busy, at different weights aside from a limit. Kirkland, Lara and Angulo had more fights above 155 before Canelo, so these stay busy fights were perfect game for these fighters. These Canelo haters never even think that Kirkland, Angulo nor Lara complained about 155 or that it needed to be at 160.

                    These guys just don’t like Canelo that even forget Bhop vs Oscar was a catch or many of Pac fights, but he GhostofDempsey asks “why does it have to be...”

                    Dorks, unfortunately. GGG even offered Rosado a catchweight
