Canelo officially ducked him

[mikeeod]

Despicable. Gross. Cowardly. Un-Mexican. All adjectives to describe Canelo's refusal to sign a fight with GGG until fall of 2017. I wouldn't despise him and/or his actions so much if he had done what Sweet Pea did back in the day and just say: "I'm not big enough to fight at this weight so I'm vacating to drop back down and take on the best competition available at my natural weight.

Instead, Canelo talks tough and makes promises after knocking out a much smaller guy known for his glass jaw, and then makes nothing but excuses to avoid the guy he challenged. I also would forgive him if he dropped down to take out the Charlo brothers and Andrade, but he won't. This kid will continue to feast on poor opposition and gift decisions to keep his facade/charade going.

It's crazy to me that this guy has so many fooled while great, solid fighters like Rigo, Crawford, and even Tim Bradley can't generate a quarter of the interest. GGG is going to destroy him, just sucks that he has to wait another year to do it.

The problem is the he isn't too small for middleweight. He is actually a good weight for middleweight. I have never seen a fight scheduled so far in advance. It's a blatant duck. Canelo is hoping that GGG either moves up or loses before then, otherwise he will have to make another excuse to avoid him.

Canelo has had a few solid fights but he needs to put up or shut up. Either fight the top light middles or at least a top 10 middle.

So in-between Canelo will just keep making money fighting stiffs on ppv money? He should be embarrassed and so should Oscar.

At this point in the boxing game you could probably get more action betting on IF a fight will take place rather than waiting to bet on the actual fight.

Why do you all keep talking about the 4th best Jr Middleweight?

Canelo is now the biggest ppv cash cow and he is afraid to fight the best fighter at his weight.
