Anyone who doesn't suck Canelos nuts knew that once he moved to 175 that he wouldnt be able to come back to 160. So much for unifying 160.
No different than Mikey going to 147.
Now that Canelo actually has said just this who do you think his next opponent will be?
Keep in mind they have to be all of the following:
1. A big name
2. Who is past his prime and on the slide
With the condition of
3. Pulling up a fighters who fight in a smaller division
4. Catchweight
5. Rehydration clauses
Who do you think fits this criteria 160-175?
I'd say GGG.
Not only is he the biggest name available but now Canelo holds every possible advantage over GGG.
He was able to wait GGG out by fighting at 155 because he was "small" for 3 years. Then dropped the WBC belt. Fought at SMW. Got busted for PEDs. Still couldnt separate himself from GGG. Didnt fight GGG a 3rd time because he didnt like him.
Now all of a sudden it might make sense.
GGG will be 38 years old at the 160lb limit when Canelo will want the fight at at least 168lbs where he has a huge size advantage.
GGG looked pretty vulnerable in his last few fights and hasnt looked good with his new trainer. GGG will also most likely have to pull a Kovalev because hes fighting in the spring already to make the cinco de mayo date.
Who is next?
