Why is Canelo.....

[BoloShot]

You already know Canelo is too scared to lose a fight against GGG when he lucked out on the other two fights. This question is rhetorical I assume.

[Chrismart]

They were 2 tough fights for him. I think he knows he got a gift in the first one, and the second one was real close. He somehow managed to come out with 2 wins and I don't think he wants to go through that again.

If GGG won, there would have to be a 4th fight. I don't think Canelo likes the idea of possibly having 2 more tough fights like the first two.

The third fight might be happening in September if GGG had agreed to fight Canelo in Vegas. GGG flat refused to fight Canelo in Vegas again for obvious reasons. Team Canelo would never risk a third fight with GGG n a neutral city.

I know and it's for a very good reason to and I cannot blame him for it either. Everything is stacked against Triple G there from the judges all the way down to the referees.

Canelo wants the fight staged in Vegas so he can gain an unfair edge and advantage over Golovkin. However, Gennady is now hipped to it and is too smart to ever fight Alvarez there again.

It’s about respect canelo had always been a prideful guy so when ggg started talking all that bs canelo proceeded to whoop his ass to shut him up and now that he did that he doesn’t wanna give ggg that payday especially since ggg is trying to get another freebie instead of earning that shot

OK Now we're getting somewhere.
Canelo's reasons for avoiding a 3rd fight with GGG (1) pride
(2) not giving GGG a payday

[ruedboy]

Golovkin made it personal. Ran a hate campaign and bent Canelo over for a bigger split in the rematch. After beating Golovkin "mexican style" like Golovkin begged him to fight, he doesn't want to reward Golovkin with a massive payday. Understandable.

A couple more reasons for avoiding a 3rd fight (3) anger at past treatment (and the money aspect, already mentioned)

[ruedboy]

Allowing it to 'marinate' and by this I mean he is waiting for GGG to get older. Many people had GGG winning both of the fights. Time is on Canelo's side

Another reason to avoid GGG fight (4) delay fight as long as possible to fight an older GGG.

So from what I've read so far in the thread is...

1. Aging Canelo out (I've suspected this).

2. Canelo wants the fight in Vegas GGG knows he will get screwed there and wants it out of Vegas.

3. Canelo got worn down in the first 2 fights and is afraid of losing the rubber match.

4. Canelo "feels" disrespected. (Kind of funny considering he for suspended for PED's if anyone was disrespectful it was him for cheating).

These are some of the theories I've gather in the thread am I missing something?

[ruedboy]

canelo asked ggg only one thing to make it happen in september, ggg did not care and flipped the middle finger to canelo and fought rolls instead fo andrade...
we could be having canelo-ggg for undisputed status next month, but ggg ****ed up... now canelo returns that middle finger to ggg... canelo has a huge ego and DAZN and GGG are finding out the hard way... for canelo his ego is bigger than titles or money, i dont personally agree with this feeling but thats the reality...

one more reason (5) GGG didn't do what Alvarez wanted to make the fight happen.

Alvarez wants Golovkin to have a title.
Doesn't want to give GGG a payday.

Because GGG fights take alot of tread off his career and he's already served his purpose to GBP. No where is it written that Canelo has to fight 3X with GGG holding his hand through the end of his career. Its on to the next one.
