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.
