"Badou Jack: I Won't Be Facing Canelo Next; They Want Fight At 180, Plus Rehydration Clause"
Drain the guy 20 pounds... PLUS... a rehydration clause. And Ginger's got the nerve to call it a cruiserweight title fight. :LOLATYOU: A title he would've never defended... because Ginger is all about the trinket.
Meanwhile, Badou himself told Ginger he should fight David Benavidez.
It's telling that you should continue to defend the chickenshit moves of the most coddled fighter in boxing history.
None of the other Mexican champions before or since have ever reached for trinkets just for the sake of the damn trinkets... all sportsmanship be damned.
You're just like the other casuals of today.
this is all only alleged by badou. have you got a copy of the official proposal? badou weighed 32 pounds more than canelo in their previous fights. i guess you'd be good with canelo v tank by that reasoningQuote:

at what weight division would a fight at 180 pounds be in titofan? doh. doesn't matter if canelo defended the title because he would have fought for it within the divisions weight limit
just like miguel & sergio not fighting the biggest threat ggg as it was just not in the cards, sadly canelo v david b doesn't seem to be in the cards. david b has moved up & i think you said he's moved on, maybe you should do the same. david b's got a very good fight coming up next
emanuel navarrete says hi
you're trying to hide that you're one of the biggest casuals on here
david b's moved upQuote:

Triple G won both fights against Canelo.

GGG won clearly
Second fight could have been a draw, Canelo winning wasn't a robbery
And Andre ward is a fighter I'm just not arsed about, boring and his biggest wins are debatable
oh okay i must have been thinking of your score for the first fight. i also had it closer than others but had ggg edging it. the second i had canelo winningQuote:

Or does he do the same slooow role he did, needing 4 catchweight fights over two years. If Cotto was expected to face him after just 1 middleweight/CW fight, shirley Canelo could. It would have been very interesting.
let's go back a step. if sergio fights ggg & ggg demolishes sergio thus becoming champion. it could have completely changed history. does miguel sac up & go for the vaunted middleweight title v ggg at that point? as for canelo's catchweights, one was requested of him from floyd, the alfredo & erislandy were both one pound over the jr middleweight limit & james had fought over the catchweight limit in his previous fight. sergio & miguel were expected to fight ggg but didn't, canelo did. it would have been interesting
Excuse for Sergio for what? A 39 year old Sergio with clearly knees shot to pieces would have met the exact same fate as Cotto vs Golovkin. Probably worse. And as already stated, no Cotto does not fight Golovkin in his first venture above 154 as we all know he would have been demolished, at any point. That entire middleweight/not middleweight period was bs. It was all about being able to say multi division champ. But I'll ask the question again...does Canelo go after Golovkin right off if he would have dusted Cotto, or does he need the 4 catchweights and 2 years to do that? Yep Canelo loved his catchweights. It was a running joke when people would say they're fighting at "Caneloweight" ;D having fought 7 in roughly 3.5 years. And glad you caught the Angulo one. As it was Canelo who would/could not make the weight.

If memory serves me correctly, it was avoiding a showdown against GGG that the Canelo camp came up with the term "marinating."
Canelo wasn't (cough) ready to fight GGG at the time... but somewhere in there he managed to go up even higher in weight to fight the mummy... Chavez Jr.
Canelo's career has been chockfull of calculations, marinating, clause-making, etc.
If nothing else, he gets a PhD on navigating around the biggest risks, while smelling like a rose to his fanatical fanbase.

This is just one of those times where all there is to say is that... IF YOU'RE OK WITH THAT... :rolleyes: there's nothing else to say.
just like miguel & sergio not fighting the biggest threat ggg as it was just not in the cards, sadly canelo v david b doesn't seem to be in the cards. david b has moved up & i think you said he's moved on, maybe you should do the same. david b's got a very good fight coming up next
emanuel navarrete says hi
you're trying to hide that you're one of the biggest casuals on here
At least try to be original. :cool:
It's clear you're at a loss for real defenses when you so shamelessly grasp at straws.
1. You revert to your modus operandi of asking for documented proof. :LOLATYOU:
2. You're apparently ok with Ginger wanting to drain a cruiserweight to the bottom of the division, COMPLETE with rehydration clauses. Again... the most chickenshit move in the history of boxing.
3. You mask your fanboyism by regurgitating the labels that apply strictly to you.
Beyond sad... it's pathetic.
i said "i was alive & wanted the champion to fight his number one threat", your response was "Well it was just never in the cards", your words, your reasoning. you saying david b v canelo was much more in the cards is not taking into account canelo's plans. he had a contract for dmitry & then ggg three. needed surgery, took a lighter fight & was looking for the rematch with dmitry, made an offer but it was refused, leading canelo to look elsewhere. that timeline took us through to the jermell & demetrius fights. david b moved up next fight & was then given the choice to keep his light heavy or super middle interim belt & he chose light heavy, giving up the chance to form a mandatory shot. i agree david b was probably the most deserving of a shot at canelo but he wasn't canelo's biggest threat for me, that was david m. miguel was the champion & had a clear number one threat. canelo was the champion but there was no clear number one. i had been saying for years those guys should have fought each other to establish a clear number one challengerQuote:

sergio was thirty nine & had bad knees from serhiy dzinziruk to martin murray? sergio was the champion & ggg was the clear biggest threat. i guess it's only canelo who has to fight who you perceive as his biggest threat & for others it's just oh well just not in the cards. i think canelo fights ggg if he beat sergio or miguel. he fought ggg within a year of defending a jr middleweight belt. be honest about the catchweights. canelo didn't request all of them. fact is canelo was still defending a jr middleweight belt only a year before fighting ggg
