Is Alvarez's "I don't like him" a valid reason for not fighting somebody?

[Bullrider]

Have anyone heard of Loeffler lately?

[_Rexy_]

Back in my day, not liking someone was more of a reason to fight them.

Let’s see how this reasoning works when Rolls asks for a rematch.

Would GGG be ducking him if he declined?

[QueensburyRules]

If it is, how can we say any fighter ever ducked another fighter?
I read comments where fans will say how this fighter ducked another fighter, with zero evidence, and here we have Alvarez admitting he don't want to fight Golovkin and fans say it's no duck.
Maybe not, but if that's the case the only time you could call a fighter avoiding another guy a duck, would be if that fighter comes right out and says,"I want to make this crystal clear, I've decided to duck Mr.X"

- -you quackers on the crystal now, eh?

[JohnCastellanos]

You're the kind of fan that's bad for boxing, gtfoh with your bullsh.it excuses and how about we agree that the score isn't settled and a third fight is due?

Canelo has more important fights than an old Golovkin, even a kovalev fight does more for his legacy then beating Golovkin again for the 3rd time IMO...Golovkin is old and fighting him again comes with zero credit but a bunch of criticism by rabid Golovkin supporters who have been lying to themselves for 6 years. Relax man I’m not hear to be disrespected, if don’t agree just ignore my comments and don’t be bitter

I don’t give a damn about the reason, he had all those belts when people swore Canelo would never fight him. He fought him twice already. I honestly don’t care if he never fights him again because there’s other high quality opponents he can fight, and there will always be excuses regardless of the outcome.

Nobody is as highly regarded or as challenging as Golovkin. Nobody in anywhere near as popular, and it's not even close. Nobody as legacy defining.

As far as excuses? Only excuses are that Canelo won 2 undeserving decisions in a nonneutral venue.

So yeah, you can continue to give him a myriad of reasons to duck the fight, the fact is that he waited 2 years to age him, got busted for PEDs, got rocked in the 10th round, and is now using completely idiotic "I don't like him and I don't want him to get paid" (despite Golovkin's contract being guaranteed and not dependent on Canelo at all) excuse.

Canelo, or rather Golden Boy, is afraid of the rubber match until they see Golovkin get old. That's all you need to know.

[jimisawesome]

This is a ****** thread because they did fight not once but twice. So yeah not giving triple bside any more money, fame, and legacy off your name is more than a valid reason not to do business with him again. BBB cried like a little girl about Clen to get Canelo suspended. Demanded money like he brought anything to the table for the rematch to the point the fight almost did not happen until the MGM found some coin. Demands to pick judges and than cries about the decision. BBB shows his unprofessionalism by leaving the ring post fight like a diva. BBB thinks he can demand venue this time. All when dude can't sell out the stubhub with groupon tickets for a May 5 fight.

- -GGG ducked the 2nd fight until they could no longer put it off.

Seems you don't know much...

[El Gitano]

Is Alvarez the only good fighter GGG is able to fight?

“waited for 2 years to age him” WTF do you wanna see Canelo vs an old man for then? Do you think an even older Golovkin will be able to knock canelo out? And Canelo can’t lose on the cards right? Then what do you want to see it again for? What do you expect to see happen?
