Comments Thread For: Canelo To Wait Until After Kovalev-Yarde To Pick Next Opponent

[KO MX]

Translation. Canelo is waiting to see what 175 pound belt holder they can con into weight draining and weight rehydration limit. We all know the plan here. Pick someone they can get some kind of ****ty advantage over.

Oh dear please don't cry hahaha

Geez, that be a tough stretch for Kovalev. Yarde is green, but he has pop; then if he wins turn 37 and go fight Canelo.

Yikes

or maybe the fake champs are the ones who refuse to defend their titles vs mandatories so a fake belt is created in order to allow them to duck a specific challenge and pursue other less risky options.

Nah, Charlo beating Centeno and Davis beating Cuellar for the title when Machado was champ is bull ****. If you complain enough, you'll get the help, but they can't do it on their own. No talent.

Canelo is not trying to see Andrade or Charlo in the ring!

Andrade and Charlo suck. Stop mentioning them because of their race. It's ******. Those guys lost to Vanes, and I am pretty sure Vanes knocked Andrade down. Those guys suck. GGG beats them both easily. Charlo has to defend his title. Number 1 and 2 are GGG and Jacobs. Lets see if he fights either of those guys.

you mean complaining about wanting to get his mandatory enforced against the champ? You don't think e would've preferred to earn it vs Canelo as opposed to having it handed to him? If anything, the wbc did this to appease Canelo. Last time they enforced a mandatory on him that he didn't want, he threw a fit, dropped his belt, was in tantrum mode against them for about 2 yrs. This franchise title creation was for canelos benefit, not Charlos.

they did this to avoid being sued by haymon... canelo was one fight away from being undisputed until the wbc came up with this, su****iously one week before sulecki-andrade..
of course the franchise belt was created to avoid backlash from canelo ...

I don't think he is ducking.. Canelo doesn't want to give GGG a payday for all the trash he talked.
Canelo is hurting their pockets. GGG is not 1/4 the draw Canelo has. Canelo has the money

That's not exactly true now since DAZN is there. I don't know if they get bonuses for fighting each other, but DAZN pays Canelo and GGG proportions of >$300m and $100m respectively. Meaning that GGG is paid ~$16m per fight. Plus he already made a ton fighting Canelo twice so I don't see how Canelo is "hurting their pockets".

For any reasonable person (and GGG is) what he earned already should be enough for generations to come. I doubt he wants to fight Canelo only for the green (not that it would be wrong if he did).

Was wondering the comments regarding Benavidez since the article didn’t even mention him. I find Benavidez to be very basic. He has good ring IQ, but the kid was suffering with stamina going 12 rounds with Mayweather’s guy. The split decision and Showtime giving Mayweather the favor to run it back for the rematch.

I think Canelo would stop Benavidez by punishing him to the body going the distance, as well making Benavidez miss all night. Fielding and Jacobs had long reach. Canelo can see them coming.

I don't think Canelo would stop Benavidez but I think he'll easily outbox him.
Benavidez Style of boxing is to seek and destroy but Canelo can adapt to him and counter him and outbox him.

Andrade is avoided for a reason but you haven't followed boxing long enough to know that.

Andrade and Charlo suck. Stop mentioning them because of their race. It's ******. Those guys lost to Vanes, and I am pretty sure Vanes knocked Andrade down. Those guys suck. GGG beats them both easily. Charlo has to defend his title. Number 1 and 2 are GGG and Jacobs. Lets see if he fights either of those guys.

Problem is HeroNelo isn't willing to fight on even grounds. He isn't willing to go to 175 with no concessions from Kovalev or Yarde. He's going to ask for something ****** like a 170lb catchweight and not allow any weight over 175 on fight night. Just wait.

Hypekin would not even go to 168 for Steve Rolls you whiney ***wit
