"Anyone from 154 to 168"...Canelo is actually doing it.

Seeing as how Golovkin was dying to fight Chavez Jr. at one point and all his fans were on board.

Golovkin never did it. Against the quality of a Fielding or anybody else.
He was just about 32 months removed from a MD win over Ishe Smith you hater! Your just jealous!!!

Wait, why is Vanes there?
Oh, it was because... Canelo failed a drug test and the fight got canceled 1? or 2? months away from the fight.
So why did he fight Vanes instead of somebody better? Well, the only other option was Derevyanchenko (since everyone else had fights anyways), who casuals have never heard of but boxing fans recognize was a good fighter.
So why did they not fight Derevyanchenko?
Because money drives this sport and also because the rematch with Canelo was clearly being moved to a September date. If Golovkin had a tough time against Derevyanchenko, he would need a lot more time to recoup since he isn't getting younger, pushing the fight back to May (which is a long ****ing time away).
Also, with HBO getting out of boxing, there was probably pressure from them to have the fight set for sure in September.
Context--- yeah, it's important.

Why you guys take every negative, sarcastic or joking post so personally is sad.

Not Erislandy Lara mind you. But a 154 pounder none the less.
