Is making Canelo a mandatory for BJS' WBO belt an unfair to GGG & Other M-Weight?

Is making Canelo a mandatory challenger for BJS's belt by WBO an unfair or disrespect to GGG and other middleweights?

One guy, Canelo, never fought a true middleweight at 160 pounds...

While another one, GGG, is willing to fight anyone in 160 to get his last belt - WBO, to be an undisputed middleweight champion since Bernard Hopkins / Jermain Taylor...

Also WBO skipping Avtandil Khurtsidze, who has been #1 contender for quit long time...

I dont think it has anything to do with GGG.

It might be unfair to the guy that was at #1, but WBO rules permit a sitting champ to move up and be named mando so it is what it is......

No, because Canelo is The Lineal MW Champion..

he the WBO 154 champ its within the rules for them to rank a champ in lower weights class a mandatory challenger in a higher weight class if asked.


its not like BJS was ever going to fight GGG

Who are these other middleweights? nobody heard of these bums ; they should all thank the face of boxing that people are actually talking about this dreadful division! you can combine all the purses of the top ten middleweights and it wont add up to what Canelo generates in one night! as far as that euro-bum crying about his place is concern he should be grateful because now people are actually talking about him.

I forgot about that good post bro

[HanzGruber]

like they said, its in the wbo rules so hey

[lopetego]

Canelo is the lineal mw champ, an elite fighter and the biggest cash cow in the post Floyd-Pac era

They would be crazy to deny him a shot at the belt, just to give it to an unproven nobody like Khurtdsize
