Re: Who is next for Canelo?
if it's jermall, it might just be time to hand in my canelo fanclub badge
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
I never had the badge until Canelo unbelievably went up to super middleweight and unified the division.

Re: Who is next for Canelo?
jermall has said that he hasn't talked to uncle al since his last fight, seeming to indicate that he's not fighting canelo in may
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
Something feels really off about the "big" announcement. So the fights are still free in Mexico...well ok. It came off like a two parter but still waiting on the other shoe to drop as far as opponent. Wondering if it fell through or just hasn't been set yet. Canelo is a master at the string along. At the point where if it's not Benavidez then I'm not hard pressed for it. Can't fight guys out of your division forever Canelo.
Said it before, an undisputed champion has an obligation to defend against division top and mandatory challengers. Especially when you have two labeled champs in your own house.

there are rumours, not from the best sources that canelo's guarantee hasn't been put into an escrow account yet & canelo gave them an extention, that is why no opponent was announced
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
So Canelo fights on TV free in Mexico? That is why he is huge and a mainstream start there.

Now the chatter is no Benavidez in 2024, depending on who ya trust. So no Bud, Charlo or Benavidez.
Bring on Berlanga ffs ;D. You'd think the 'face of boxing' would have it figured less than 90 days out. It's probably Charlo..

Oh PLEEEEEASE..... not Berlanga. :-X
That's all I need. For Canelo to feast on an overhyped Puerto Rican and get an undeserved spot on the storied PR-Mexico rivalry. I'm not a Berlanga fan, and honestly wish he'd just go away and keep cutting records and shit. I don't think he's dedicated enough. Whatever happened to Mungia? I know Canelo says "no Mexicans", but I'm sure he'd make an exception for Munguia, knowing full well he poses no danger to him. No... the only acceptable opponent here is Benavidez. But we all know that's NOT gonna happen. It's not in the Hollywood script.
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
edgar might lose his next fight
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
I honestly hope you're right. I'd hate to see him face Canelo. Easy pickings for the red-headed diva.
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
i don't see any american's for canelo to fight at light-heavy or cruiser either

Yeh he's playing games a bit with the "it's an American" thing. The whole announcement was bait and switch so as expected fans follow along. The inner hopeful non cynical fan in me that remains :fight: says you simply do not bleed out and string along a major fight announcement unless it's a major fight. At this point announcing a Charlo would be universally booed off the stage...surely. Munguia would be fun but is more Dollar General compared to Benavidez. Time for the King and face of boxing to sac up.
Re: Who is next for Canelo?
canelo can basically do whatever he likes at this stage of his career, similar to how floyd ended his. i'd be okay if it's a shit opponent in may if there's a big fight guarantee for september. i was thinking he could fulfil the ibf mandatory against william scull but he's not american. please don't give us boo boo or caleb part two
