    If Canelo doesn’t fight the names being thrown around...

    If in his next fight Canelo doesn’t fight Kovalev or Smith, or for any title at 168 or 175, or try to unify with Andrade, or take a mandatory or fight GGG....

    Will you criticize him?

    I wouldn’t but I will criticize the Canelo/GBP narrative that GGG needs to earn a shot if they fight someone along the lines of a Fielding instead of those names mentioned.

    I think DAZN have a certain amount of control over who he fights, they weren't having any of that Lemieux talk. Golovkin is their priority, but I can see them signing off on Andrade, Smith and Kovalev.

      It may be that canelos age is starting to catch up with him. It may in fact be too hard on canelo to drop down to 160 anymore. Look how much he has bulked up the last few years. It isn't hard to see that one. Perhaps thats the cause for the trilogy hesitance.

        Maybe they could fight at 164 then so Canelo could be comfortable like Golovkin wanted Rolls to be comfortable.

        Call it Big Comfort Show!

          If it’s not GGG, Kovalev, Smith or Andrade. Canelo will deservedly be criticised.

          I do expect him to face one of those four though.

            DAZN will be desperate to make GGG III. Especially after AJ got exposed.

              I sure hope DAZN has some way to get out of this contract because it looks like Oscar and Canelo couldn't care less about building the DAZN fan base.

                Canelo can do whatever he wants. He calls the shots, he runs the show. I wouldn’t mind if he fought Donaire. As long as I see him in the ring, that’s all that matters.

                Triple Flop needs to win a belt, then maybe he can get another crack at the king.

                  Canelo is the reason why DAZN is alive. He leaves and so will all his followers. I will cancel on the spot.

                    They have done more to build the DAZN fan base than anyone.

                    Especially more than Golovkin with his Steve Rolls flop.
