I think because fighting any of the following guys will do more for his career than fighting GGG a thrid time:
Charlo, Andrade, Smith, Saunders, Beterbiev, Bivol. Fornling, Eubank, Plant.
Besides if he fights GGG now people will just say he waited till he was older. Unfortunately, there will always be an excuse for why GGG lost also, so why bother. They already gave us 24 great rounds. If they were closer in age maybe making a trilogy would have made sense but now we're are just matching them up untill GGG looses his ability to speak.

Can anyone explain why Alvarez refused to fight Golovkin?

In fact a convincing victory over GGG, helps his chances for FOTD.
Instead, Canelo ducks GGG, gives up his Mexican Holiday and waits 6 months to fight a +300 underdog, who looked like a KO waiting to happen in his last fight.
It just don't make no sense, unless...
And the truth is, he doesn't like all the crap GGG said of him after the PED/Meat incident and doesn't not want to give him another payday.

Originally posted by lieutenant View PostWhy did GGG fight Steve Rolls instead of Andrade? Why is GGG lining up to fight a plumber from Poland? GGG is shot, Canelo shattered his confidence and took something from him in their second fight. Canelo has stated he wants a challenge, GGG no longer presents one.
Canelo beat the #3 ranked middleweight and the #2 ranked LHW. He will win foty and he deserves fotd as well, though politics will likely stop him from winning the latter.

Originally posted by 4truth View PostWhen the Kovalev fight was first made everyone claimed there would be no weight restrictions.
Now all you betches cry for a 10lb morning rule that even Loma diehards acknowledged for the Rigo fight. You guys don’t know shet about boxing if you think the limit is the same thing as an IBF rule.
Kova got his 175. Kova could be any weight he wanted after the morning weigh in.
Again, pimping these excuses.

He knows that beating up an even older GGG would make him look like a real cherry pick. I’m glad he moved on we all should too.
