Now recently I have given Canelo a lot of praise and respect.
But if that was any other fighter that did that they would be called Duck, Chicken and just about every other farmyard animal you can think of.
this was the plan when canelo took the dmitry fight
Yep, but he got beat. That should change EVERYTHING! so what, just airbrush the Bivol defeat from his record like some people try to airbrush the Floyd defeat out.
I heard on more than one occasion in the build up to the Bivol fight from Media that don’t normally involve themselves in Boxing Canelo being called “The undefeated……..” it’s pathetic.
canelo did lose but the plan announced before the fight was dmitry & then ggg. if canelo had won there would be those complaining canelo was avoiding artur by fighting ggg next. canelo can't win. it's not like canelo has kept the ggg fight secret & then snuck it in there. i am not airbrushing the defeat from canelo's record. canelo took on a massive challenge & came up short. no shame in that. let's see where things go from here. i'd prefer dmitry against the artur v joe winner than an immediate rematch with canelo

Golovkin can't wait around forever and if the plan was for Canelo to fight him next... so be it. I think GGG will get starched, but c'est la vie. He fought Canelo stupidly when he had his chance... and now he's older and more shop-worn. He just wants to cash out and I guess can't blame him for that. I never wanted a 3rd Canelo-GGG fight, but it is what it is.

I also don't think much of Bivol going down in weight to challenge Canelo. He's going to be a weaker version of himself, and give up the main advantage he had over Canelo.

Besides... after seeing the judges scores after the Bivol fight.... who in their right minds thinks they can win a decision over Canelo??!??

Those f*cking judges must've been crying as they turned in their scorecards, knowing they had blown their assignment.
