GBP have ducked and dived and avoided the fight for as long as they possibly could, I hate it when people just wave obscene amounts of money around and pretty much demand that everyone else dance to their tune, I'd be happy for GGG to tell GBP to fuck off for a few months as he has plans to win all the belts, it is basically saying to GBP and ginger pubes that they are not a priority and I think that would fuck them off more than anything else.
Either way BJS or Canelo they are two fights that I would definitely be watching so I wont complain either way.
far too many 3 letter names in there, GGG, GBP, BJS, FFS, WTF
I think GGG fight and beating BJS would be the best case scenario for the sport (not that BJS couldnt win). Its the perfect way to expose the hypocrisy of boxing politics and make a point how stupid it is for people to talk about money draws and star power when you have oscar and canelo whining after already having given up their belt and still claiming theyre the best middleweight in the world While another fighter has every belt and took on everyone. its the perfect background for Team canelo too look stupid when they are making mayweather-esque demands on fighting time tables, and weight, and gloves and other nonsense. Oscar is doing everything he can to try to have everyone see canelo as the next mayweather so canelo can make these one sided deals and Oscar can control that. The boxing world needs to get turned on its ear every once in a while to keep it fresh and stop bad trends from becoming bad traditions.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
