Comments Thread For: Spence Promises "All-Out War" Against Alvarez At 160 But Canelo Wants 168 Titles Instead

Canelo should tell Spence that he'll fight him at 160 after he fights Crawford. Maybe we'll get somewhere.

Lmfao that would be awesome

[champion4ever]

Spence needs to understand that Canelo has never fought at anything lighter than 154 and Spence already 30 yrs old has yet to actually fight at 154. Big welterweight. Small middleweight. KO loss

This statement is factually incorrect. Back in 2005, Canelo started his career as a 15 year old in Mexico at a 140 lbs. In his first three years as a professional his weight would fluctuate between a 140 and 147 lbs where he had eventually decided to settle until moving up to 154 lbs in 2010.

In a strange way I see Spence run over by GGG yet competitive with Canelo, and I see Canelo beating GGG in a third fight, just the differences in speed power between the 3 and how their styles mesh.

I see where you’re coming from. GGG will just come forward throwing like he usually does. He’s like Trinidad, “if plan A fails, resort back to plan A”. But with his jab, chin, power, he might be able take Spences punch and keep firing forward. Could look good for him, unless he gets thoroughly out boxed which is possible. Canelo is much more measured, throws less. He is highly skilled, but with Spences style they might stymie each other a bit. Almost like they are fighting the same game. Chess matches can take time. I think the difference between them would be the power, and chin of Canelo. But the pace wouldn’t be the same as with GGG. So in one fight you might get to the conclusion faster. I have Canelo beating GGG in a 3rd fight also. Will get a lot more chances to hit ggg clean.

Regardless of what you think of Spence or Canelo We all saw the fight. We all saw Canelo. He looked good. Where the **** are you gonna squeeze 8 pounds to get to 160 let alone 14 pounds to get to 154? That ship has sailed, but that one astern.

Either move up or shut up!

Spence could also try to get a fight with Golovkin. That would be a big fight, though a very dangerous fight. Triple G is getting old too, so there is one advantage Spence would have. Probably too much of a risk for Spence to take a fight like that, though. He could very possibly be destroyed.

Spence has the right strategy. One would have to back Canelo up and walk him down with the jab in order to outwork him because Canelo likes to fight in spurts.

Spence has a much better jab and cardio-conditioning than Canelo Alvarez. Therefore, unless Canelo could hurt Spence, then it's going to be a rough ride for him.

Canelo & T Crawford are P4P top dog fighters, Spence Jr is your common coward...

[tokon]

Bivol at 168 (he had already said he can make it) with 168 + 175 titles on the line would be a good fight.

[sportbuddha]

Fair enough, I actually didn’t remember them making that fight, been a weird year, completely passed me by that it got made and canned.

PAC is going to fight Brandon Rios or Broner.
Or even Vargas or Mikey Garcia. Maybe Mathysse.
That’s how he rolls

It's not how he rolls and you know it. Show me a long reigning champ of multiple weights that doesn't have mismatches on their record.
Canelo has fought two Smith brothers and even Ricky Hatton's brother. Let's not mention Canelo vs King Khan.. oops.
Is that how Canelo "rolls"?
