Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Kovalev: Golden Boy Makes Low Offer For 9/14 Fight

[Boxing Scene]

If this fight gets made at 175 no one should ever doubt Canelo. He GOT the biggest balls of them all. Let's make this fight!

It's not going to be at 175 man. Wake the **** up. Canelo never fights anyone without some kind of cheating or advantage. He either cheats or has the judges pre-paid. It's just a ****ing fact.

Whats the intended weight for the fight?

The new LHW limit. 169lbs.

[observer]

Jacobs has a much bigger fanbase & was making pre canelo way more than Foldalev,Foldalev is likely going to make sht the rest of his career like hes done til now for getting kod. Canelo is taking massive risks 100000x more than kov would be.

Compare Jacobs selling out msg vs c levels to fold giving free tickets to rec centers

Just thought I'd let you know that you calling Kovalev Foldalev (or distorting the name of any boxer) means to me that anything else you write in your post is not worth reading. Just my opinion, but I am sure there are some more people like that. Now, if you want to make sure people like me don't read your posts, then job well done

a possible catchweight..... would be bullshlt

but the very real outpouring of tears..... is priceless

especially from the..... "168 for Chavez, Froch, Hopkins, Jack, Chudinov, Ramirez..... but, 164 for Ward"..... crew

Keep deflecting & acting wannabe tuff. Your obsessed with canelo & are the definition of a ggg ballicker like 90% of clown's on this thread. Too many fake gstring nuthuggers ashamed of admitting they are ggg fanbois because that'd mean admitting to being a hypocrite coward with no principles,thats also why you nitpick Grammar,thats the move of a pathetic strawman with no argument.

still messed up your vs you're in this post too. What grade are you in? Still haven't posted the simple statements that you say exist. What good is furthering this convo if you can't provide basic proof of something that you say is so easy to access on Google? Just admit it doesn't exist so I don't have to keep reading your terribly written posts.

... calling him at a cw of 172 (with a rehydration clause) and also offering shit money... thanks!...

... why didn't he call out Bivol, who said he would drain to 168 for Canelo?...

Bivol is dangerous, young, and can make 168 comfortably.

Kovalev is past his prime, and while dangerous, has trouble making 175 at times.

Which is why nobody in GBP is even acknowledging Bivol's callout.

... it was only "rhetorical"... in order to underline this bullshit smoke screen...

At 175 with no funny clause to keep Kovalev drained then canelo gets killed and hopefully so

[Chrissy Boy]

Golden Boy Promotions' MO for Canelo is basically:

- Choose 'big name' fighters who are old and/or past their best
- When necessary, stipulate a weight/rehydration clause that always disadvantages his opponent
- Fight at a 'friendly' venue that is notorious for dubious decisions (hello Las Vegas!)
- Predominantly fight on Mexican holidays with a partisan crowd, further enhancing the likelihood of the above point
- Somehow get favourable scoring (114–114 vs Mayweather and 118-110 vs GGG spring to mind)
- Be in bed with the WBC allowing him to overlook normal mandatory fights but still keep his 'Franchise' status

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention his failed drug tests...

Due to the above Canelo's legacy will always be tarnished for true boxing fans; which is a shame as he is an excellent boxer who shouldn't need to resort to such tactics.
