    Canelo vacated so he's not forced to fight at 160, Tbh.

    Without the WBC up his ass, now he can negotiate the fight however he wants. If Golovkin wants it he's gonna have to come down

    so he's dropping the belt so they can't force him into a deadline, which is supposed to help with negotiations?

    canelo is trying to get ggg to come down to 155, which ggg and his team won't agree to. this is just a spin move to show the public they tried to make the fight happen. man we need floyd to come back to save us!

    Floyd? Save you?

    Who you think taught Canelo how to delay fights till a MF is washed?

    Fights not going to happen. Canelo is a pussy. Dela hoya learned from Mayweather promotions. All I hear from GBP is the same Floyd would spew. Fight filler fights and wait for them to get washed up and then fight.

    Boxing will be deadnin 20 years. Hopefully, dead in 10

    I knew it would play out like this. Baby Suliman, of the WBC, should be applauded. Usually I'd say a sanctioning body but the WBC should receive major props for pulling GBP ho card and saying fight Golovkin.

    GGG did everything right. Shut the up, fought for the interim WBC 160 belt making him the number one contender, beat the outta Soto Karass and stepped aside to watch Cotto run to Canelo and fight. Then step aside again and take a manditory le fight against Wade. Told Canelo to Bring me my belt and that's just what Canelo did. WBC said we're gonna give you 15 days and Oscar comes out and say we won't be dictated to. Now they could have dropped it because of the 55-45 purse split but that could easily be worked out. There's no reason why this fight shouldn't go down in September unless Oscar is trying to add another year to Golovkin's age.

    Personally I think Golovkin may look to mop up Billy Joe Saunders, gank the WBO strap and move up. I don't think it's Canelo per se; I think it's Oscar. Because other than Canelo and possibly Jo Jo Diaz, that stable is empty. Al Haymon fighters were fighting on GBP cards for years then once he and Schaffer fell out, all the Haymon fighters left leaving him with just Canelo. He's not trying to lose that meal ticket.

    And i don't blame Golovkin. I would only drain myself for Floyd if I'm going to 54 because I know Floyd couldn't hurt me and working like to lose those extra six pounds would be worth it on the check he would likely receive. Going in there drained against a puncher like Canelo give Canelo an obvious advantage. Plus the le is the middleweight championship. If Canelo wants to come in at 155, he can. Golovkin should be able to come in at 159.6

    It's not a duck, yet, but the weight is gonna be an issue. If it doesn't happen becuase he insists GGG comes down to 155, then that's some seriously weak bull ish.

    I don't know much about boxing, but why don't they meet at a catch weight?

    Funny thing about that is Oscar never ducked anyone. Dude fought damn near everyone. Canelo is his meal ticket. Milk him for a few more PPVs before he get in there with Golovkin. Good business, bad for boxing.

    agreed. Plus Canelo rehydrates to 168-70 anyways. If there is a catcheeight it should at where BOTH parties are comfortable. I prefer no CW but 158 would be fine.

    Thats what GBP want. WBC says Canelo is the MIDDLEWEIGHT champ. Why should Golovkin fight for a le at 160 at a junior middleweight limit? Golovkin says 160 because you're the middleweight champ. Meet in the middle. 158 lbs.
