Canelo could have made 160 easily and comfortably when GGG was his mandatory. He showed that by fighting Julio Cesar Chavez Jr at 164 in his first fight after permanently leaving 154. The weight for the GGG fight wasn't an issue for Canelo for any other reason than as an attempt. I don't understand why Canelo clearly trying to weight drain an opponent is swept under the rug here. He didn't want to fight GGG at that time without weight draining him. Why the duck do people defend that but criticize the guy who stood up to him?Comment

wrong! many fighters had ggg winning.
pacquiao, lennox lewis, crawford, shawn porter, sergio martinez, carl frampton, etc. etc. all thought ggg won the rematch
almost all media had ggg winning, majority of fans once again felt ggg won, and many pro fighters felt ggg won.Comment

He didn't fight him because he knew Canelo would eventually have to come to him not the other way around. It was freaking obvious to everyone that Canelo's days at 154 were coming to an end. As it turned out that's exactly what happened. The fight got made at 160 like hundreds of other Middleweight Championship fights. Don't know why you are so upset that Golovkin didn't back down and put himself at a disadvantage. There was no reason to go to below the 160 limit for this particular opponent. He said in an ESPN interview that he would only cut weight for Floyd. When asked about Canelo he said no to a weight cut.Comment

Meanwhile, Canelo drops the belt when he can't bully GGG into weight draining himself and then jumps all the way up to 164 in his first fight after permanently leaving 154. And yet you haters don't blame the guy who was playing around with the weights for the fight not happening. You guys are so besides the point you can't even see it with a telescope.

You haters harp on something that was mostly said by universally disliked Abel Sanchez. Most of that 154-168 talk came from him. Any comments on that from GGG himself came all the way back in 2012-2013. Its 2019 motherducker. And he did try to make those fights happened. Tried to get fights with middleweight champions Felix Sturm, Sergio Martinez, Miguel Cotto and Canelo Alvarez. Tried to get fights with Carl Froch and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr at 168. Signed a contract to fight Billy Joe Saunders if the Canelo rematch fell through. Fought Canelo 2x. Fought Danny Jacobs. Fighting Sergei Derevyanchenko in October. Still has 5 more fights in his DAZN contract and they have a lot of talented guys between 160 and 168. So duck off on that nonsense you hater.
