Lara, Angulo, Kirkland were "Middleweights" before CANELO....

[GGG Gloveking]

you are an absolute idiot


FACT: a genuine middleweight does TWO things..... he prepares to weigh-in at 160, in order to fight a middleweight opponent.....

well, Canelo had never done either of those things until he fought Golovkin..... which makes casual fans as dumb as a rock

I'm sorry, let me put it in a language you understand.

FACT: Every fight is scheduled to a certain weight category.

My bad, you're right. Canelo isn't a genuine middleweight, or at least wasn't. And so when he beat Cotto he wasn't a genuine champion, fight against Khan wasn't genuine. I guess until he fought Smith, Canelo hadn't been a genuine boxer in years...

Stupid ass

FINALLY !!

you FINALLY got it right, you absolute dickhead

you are like a broken vending machine, I had to kick some cents into you lol


FACT: anyone who thinks that Cotto was a genuine middleweight..... is a moron

FACT: anyone who refers to a fighter who has never weighed more than 155, as a genuine middleweight..... is an even bigger moron

if you think that Canelo is a genuine middleweight champion then you should not be here..... you should be mowing someones lawn

Canelo is a LHW as Lil'G fans claim because Golovkin was bigger than Alvarez on fight night doe...

[GGG Gloveking]

My bad, you're right... Canelo hadn't been a genuine boxer in years...

Stupid ass

FINALLY !!

you FINALLY got it right..

Glad to see we're on the same page.

Why root for a fighter that isn't genuine?

Do you understand why "Caneloweight" isnt there, or do you need someone to explain to you that such category doesn't exist in boxing?

This doesn't even address my post. What weight class is 161.5 lbs? What weight class is 164lbs? What happens if you show up for a JMW fight weighing 155?

straight answer to your question, those arent weight classes, those are catchweights... no weight class has a limit of 161, 165, 155, etc...

What weight class would those weights fall in? Remember, the WBC said "Every fight falls in a particular class"

bro, I will not spend too much time in this thread, because this subject is also being "discussed" on two other threads

the subject..... is utter stupidity, and is only being pushed by a handful of try-hard Golovkin fanboys..... Shape Up, kafkod, and a few others

this is a breakdown of the ENTIRE argument.....



The Cause:
the failed negotiations between Canelo/Golovkin in 2016

1) Golovkin ran around for FIVE YEARS saying that he can beat "anyone from 154-168", he even specifically promised to fight Canelo at 154.....

Golovkin Would Fight Ward at 168 and Canelo at 154.....
http://thaboxingvoice.com/golovkin-a...4/15398?var=no

2) Canelo..... being an entitled diva who was prepared to exploit his position, and his understanding of the sport..... demanded that fight at 155

3) Golovkin..... being full-of-shht, and not wanting to have his hype-train derailed, totally refused..... he offered Rosado/Brook a catchweight, but totally refused to negotiate on weight with Cotto and Canelo..... bizarrely, Golovkin then stated that he is willing and able to fight at 154, but nobody will step up

4) Golovkin's idiot fanbase, in their wisdom..... rather than calling out Golovkin for his lies, inconsistencies, and bizarre refusal to negotiate on weight with superstars despite the fact that he was willing to negotiate on weight with no-hopers..... decided to re-label 155 Canelo as a middleweight, in an effort to remove the egg from both of Golovkin's face's



The killer:
when Canelo fought Liam Smith at 154 to win the WBO JMW title, that "Canelo is a middleweight" nonsense should have stopped there and then..... anyone with half-a-brain should have realized that referring to Canelo as a middleweight was try-hard fanboy rubbish..... but, some did not



The bottom line:

FACT: anyone who thinks that Cotto was a genuine middleweight..... is "special"

FACT: anyone who refers to a fighter who has never weighed more than 155, as a genuine middleweight..... is even more "special"

the Golovkin krewe just looooove calling me a hater, which is just another excuse-making label, like "middleweight" was..... but they really have tagged/bagged themselves by peddling that rubbish

can you say..... dumbass casual fan ? lol



FACT: a genuine middleweight does TWO things..... he prepares to weigh-in at 160, in order to fight a middleweight opponent.....

well, Canelo had never done either of those things until he fought Golovkin..... which makes casual fans as dumb as a rock

Your arguments are full of holes. My god 155 is not 154. Do you even understand that?
