Comments Thread For: Canelo-Kovalev: Negotiations Ongoing For Fight, 10/19 or 10/26

Yess!!!!!!!!!

Maybe Canelo aint so bad after all! It's not Bivol or Gvozdyk but it's a great fight and Im excited for it.

What’s obvious is the fact that Canelo and Golden Boy aren’t targeting the other champions at 175 in Bivol, Beterbiev, Gvozdyk. He couldn’t try and take the fight on the inside against them without putting himself at risk of being knocked out. Even against Kov, he might get a rude awakening.

lil g's level of opposition has been gettting worse and worse fight after fight.

If Canelo fights Derevyanchenko and lil g knows he's guaranteed Canelo next, they'll need to visit the morgue to dig up his next stay busy opponent. His next fight could be a Weekend at Bernie's scenario.

Wrong! Golden Boy approached Eddie Hearn for a September 14 fight with Andrade, but next thing you know DAZN told Golden Boy they will only approve GGG and Kovalev:

From ESPN Jul 4: "Eric Gomez, the president of Alvarez promoter Golden Boy Promotions, exchanged messages with Andrade promoter Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Boxing on Tuesday and then spoke to him on the telephone on Wednesday to gauge Andrade's interest in facing Alvarez on Sept. 14, the Mexican Independence Day weekend on which Alvarez's next fight is planned."

You are correct! They spent the whole week talking with Andrade's team. Pretty much everyone thought it was a done deal until DAZN got involved.

Canelo is avoiding GGG like the plague. And for those that are supporting this saying he doesn't owe GGG a third fight act as if the man has two solid wins over the Kazakhstan. Don't forget that GGG had a clear win the first time around but was robbed. Mostly everyone ringside, media and fans, and fans at home saw GGG winning convincingly. The second one was closer and could have been a draw at best. What I'm trying to say is that Canelo is acting like he beat him soundly two times. I don't know why DAZN isn't reprimanding this. The Kovalev fight is a good fight but when you look at what's really happening with GGG you'll realize it's still a ploy to avoid the man.

[Shadoww702]

What, you really think GGG is suddenly scared? Of middleweights? He was the guy calling every middleweight out and being ducked by 90% of them. It's a financial thing. DAZN can risk Canelo losing because Canelo is young, prime, and has the judges on his side, so it's not really a risk. Plus Canelo hasnt taken an official loss recently anyway, so even if he does lose to Kovalev at 175, what does that matter? He can still drop down and fight GGG and it's as big as ever. But if GGG takes another loss at this age vs Andrade or someone after already almost losing to Jacobs, and then looking old and getting a draw and a loss, officially, vs Canelo, it ruins the fight.

Well... Kovalev is 36 and he is getting old, and no longer the fighter that he once was. That’s the reason for Canelo to fight him. Low risk high reward ($$$)[/QUOTE]

Kovalov is not a low risk? He’s arguably the best LHW.

[Shadoww702]

Sure he would because every bum GGG fights is somehow better then world champs and top ranked world class fighters despite Rolls never could become a world champ and was EVER able to become even a world class fighter after almost a decade as a pro and being 35 years old. Just like semi retired gate keeper career 154lb Vanes would beat Dervy too right? And bum on house arrest Wade was secretly a beast better then Cotto?

Funny how these bums GGG keeps fighting have accomplished nothing in boxing BEFORE or after GGG fights them but according to his idiot fans it's a lot harder to pull Rolls out of uber car and fight then it is to move up to 168 and fight a world champ who was universally top 10 ranked by everyone. And get ready once GGG pulls another bum off the street or drags up another career 154lber up to middleweight idiots will be saying that's much tougher then moving up to 175 and fighting Kovalev lol

Did that dope really just say Rolls is better than Fielding??? Smith KO’d him in 2. GGG could of KO’s Rolls sooner then 4 but was trying get some rounds in. If Smith and GGG were to fight now I would bet everything on Smith.

If Rolls fought Fielding I would bet Fielding.

Some ppl are Fkn RTARDED!!

How many years did Marquez have to wait for Pacquaio to give him a rematch after their draw in the first fight? How many years did Marquez have to wait for Pacquaio to give him a 3rd fight after Pacquaio eeked out a controversial split decision in the rematch? And look at all the top fighters Marquez fought in between all those years. Meanwhile GGG thinks he should just get a lifetime pass to fight Canelo once every year and fight hot garbage in between those fights? And at the same time GGG the hypocrite has refused to give Jacobs even 1 rematch? Phuk outta here. If GGG wants to put his career on pause and disrespect his own fans by shoveling them trash fights that's his problem not Canelo's. Canelo's career don't revolve around GGG he already fought him then gave him a direct rematch his next fight and not only beat him convincingly but broke his face and beat the Mexican Style out his azzz. Sorry if you cry babies can't get over it. Tough luck tell GGG to go out and do like Marquez and earn another shot by fighting top guys winning another belt at 160. If he beat Andrade he could of punched his ticket but he ran from Andrade like he ran out the ring pulling a broner after Canelo gave him real Mexican Style LMAO

Rolls is ranked 8th in the world by the IBF and 15th in the world by the WBC so how is a 6 round fighter ranked top 8th and 15th in the world????? Only boxrec ranks him so low so that is the ranking you quote of course.You have a long track record as an extreme GGG hater and now a Canelo lover. Canelo tried to fight Munguia. Canelo hand picked Fielding instead of fighting Callum Smith Who had KOed Fielding in two rounds shortly before Canelo fought him. Hell, Rolls would beat Fielding. If Canelo was the fearless guy you claim him to be he would have taken a challenge and fought Smith for the real world title. No fight has been announced between GGG and Munguia. That is just you trashing him in advance for something he has not done. If he does fight Munguia that's a bad fight for him but Canelo tried to fight Munguia first.

Just when you think someone can’t be soo ****** they prove you wrong. I can name 20 MW’s better than Rolls. Heck I would put a punch of guys at 147 ahead of him at MW.

Also you dumb ***! GGG was signed up to fight Munguia last year until the boxing Nevada commish stoped that noise. And the Vanes fight was soo bad Vegas said get that sht out of here!

Your a FULL RTARD!!! Rolls better than Fielding??? LMFAO!

I’m sure you think Rolls is better than anyone Canelo fought.

This dumb *** probably says Rolls > Floyd Mayweather

[chubuk7]

It's a financial thing alright GGG is afraid if he fights anyone legit he might lose and that canelo payday is gone if that happens. The difference is you keep blaming this on the network when we have seen the same behavior now on multiple different networks. And Andrade already exposed them telling the world DAZN tried to make GGG vs Andrade and it was GGG who said no and it was GGG who went dumpster diving to find a 35 year old career 6-8 round journeyman with no pop 81st ranked Middleweight Rolls. Stop blaming DAZN or HBO or anyone else for shyt fights that GGG hand picks. LMAO

Charlo and Andrade should just end up fighting each other at this point. Both GGG and Canelo are not ready for a lower pay.

Ggg got his arse kicked the first time. Canelo did more to triple g than Floyd did to any of his opponents cause Canelo actually hurt triple g and Floyd would just run and hold and wait for the judges to give him the win on “defense”.
