actually fighting the top guys in your division (lara) is something you get extra credit for ? that's called taking a risk?
cotto was the A side right?
By comparison look how Team GGG swerved Andre Ward because he didn't make financial sense.

All he did was drop the belt so that the WBC deadline wouldn't force him to go to purse bids, in which case he'd have to agree to a 55-45 split. We all know Golovkin hasn't done enough to merit 45% of the purse.
But I don't expect the simpletons on social media to understand that. They would have to think a little deeper about the situation and not be so shallow.

When did Canelo fight a SMW or now a LHW? He's fighting guys two south of him.

Originally posted by techliam View PostThe interim/champion rule was entirely removed. Interim champion splits should never exceed that of a mandatory challenger, which as we know is 70/30 of 90% + 10% to the winner. The WBC president may change any of these rules as he sees fit, but he isn't likely to do so here.
Loeffler has no argument as the WBC can only operate by their most recent amendments. Where you got this idea from, I have no idea. Like I said before, look at the dates of the documents you are referring to.

I mean, I can see how you could think you can full the casuals with this nonsense excuse, however, us semi-hardcore and hardcore fans know better.

I hear CANELO's next fight he's going to get ABNER MARES to move up from Featherweight to fight him.

Canelo vacates WBC title but instructs GBP to cont. negotiating w/ GGG. If he didn't want deadlines he shouldn't have fought for the belt.

garcia doesn't get extra credit for lucas and garcia clearly won that fight but canelo gets some type of extra credit for probably beating lara
