Why isn’t Canelo calling out the other 175 champs?

Holy Crap.!!

... you don't know that, you are showing your ignorance.

[Zaroku]

Moves up to 168 to fight fake WBA regular bum Rocky Fielding. Claims to be a SMW champ.

Now he calls out Kovalev who is still great but clearly old and vulnerable. Why doesn’t Clenelo go after a young lion in their prime like Bivol or GvoDzyk?

Do you speak Japanese... I’m in Katase, Fujisawa, Kanagawa... my 3 closest train stations

It's because Canelo mostly takes on low risk, high reward fights. Old, out of prime Mosley, Old, out of prime Cotto, glass-chinned Khan, Old, out of prime GGG, shall I continue?

Canelo avoids real, prime time champions. No way on GOD's green earth would Canelo face a Lion like Anthony Yarde, we all know he been avoiding Andrade and Charlo. Now all of a sudden this cheap move of "Franchise Champion", what nonsense man.

Just watch, in about another year or so, there may even be a lame GGG trilogy, by then, GGG might be boxing with a cane man and the media will be hyping it up as if it were some mega fight.

Jermall Charlo made his name off of beating an out of prime Cornelius Bundrage (42-year old at the time). Jermall only has one win against a true , in-their-prime, Middleweights and that was 3 years ago (Adams and Centeno aren't true MWs and Korobov was 35 years old).

Andrade is a lot of fluff, lets be real.

Got dropped by Alantez Fox
Got dropped by Martirosyan (Split Decision)
Split Decision vs Jack Culcay

Is Maciej Sulecki his best/most impressive win to-date? Daniel Jacobs beat Sulecki when he was undefeated. Maybe Andrade should try to beat Jacobs first.

You answered your own question. He’s looking to pick up straps, not fight the best in the division.

[Larry the boss]

well why arnt any other 160 fighters moving up period??

[Larry the boss]

Because they are young undefeated champions in their prime and Canelo is not this incredibly brave, dare to be great super hero some are saying he is. He won't give GGG a rematch which he should have done instead of fighting Jacobs who GGG already beat. He says he wants to unify 160 and hold all the titles. I think he is lying. Let's see if he fights Andrade for that WBO belt or instead fights some heavier champion at a Canelo type catchweight complete with morning weigh in. If he fights Andrade next then he is for real and more power to him. We should soon know who he is fighting and on what terms. Bivol offered to drop to 168 to fight him. Think Canelo will take that fight?

will GGG move up or fight Andrade next?? Canelo is doing far more then GGG and has shown he has more confident in himself

Some more comments when Canelo said he wanted to fight Kovalev just a few months ago...

how quick the narrative changes once it sounds like it might actually happen LMAO

What part of the narrative am I playing?

When you captain of the ship you don’t call anybody out.

They call you out and enter a chance to win the sweepstakes

[_Rexy_]

Your azzz just a couple months ago said no way Canelo fights Kovalev if he moves up he will fight a Rocky Fielding type opponent at 175 now you switching up making excuses and trashing Kovalev who is either 1 or 2 best light heavyweight in the world RIGHT NOW and brings far more to the table in terms of money, popularity, resume ect? And you still asking why Kovalev over Bivol?

I’ve never bashed Kovalev at all. Not once.

I said draining Kovalev is a ***** move, but I’d expect it from a fighter who was too scared to fight Rocky f’king Fielding without a hydration clause.

[Redd Foxx]

It's pretty transparent. Kovalev has a lot of name recognition but is looking vulnerable. He's been finished twice in the last 2 years by guys who aren't big punchers. His spooky power might be a thing of the past. Weight draining him would suck all the life out of him.

Fighting him at 175 would be impressive but Canelo's not that kinda guy anymore. He once fought Laura just to make a point. Now, he's more of a financial institution that is guaranteed to win any fight that goes to the judges. Sad, but true.
