    That’s because Canelo is the A side and he can go elsewhere. What’s GGG going to do, Fight Jacobs again for a lot less money and Potentially lose? Of course not he’ll wait for the super-welterweight like a good boy.
    So Canelo can go elsewhere can he? So where exactly are all these options?
    None of them are options he WANTS to take.
    He can fight any of the guys who are fighting tonight at a catch weight

    Why should or would any of those guys want to fight at a catch weight? I don't think Canelo will be fighting at Catchweights any more either, he is a MW Now.
    So his only options are :
    1. Making one of the LMW's go up a weight. Doubt that happens , they've got enough fights at their proper weight. Charlo might go up, but Canelo won't fight him.
    2. Jacobs - he'll avoid that same as GGG has.
    3. Saunders - same option as GGG. In reality, it's not an option because Saunders will avoid them both!
    So you see, Canelo is running out of dance partners that will cater to Oscar's every whim. I believe that's why he's only fighting twice a year.

    Money! It’s as simple as that. Nobody gives a shit about those guys and they’re probably getting paid peanuts tonight. Canelo makes more in one fight than they will combined tonight so of course they would love to fight him and get paid. This is prize fighting after all.

    If that's the case and they're queuing up, why is he talking a GGG rematch? Because they can't be fucked with Canelo and Oscar any more. That's why Canelo ends up fighting a joke like Khan. That made him a laughing stock.
    No doubt you'll come back with "same as GGG fighting Brook....." but it's not. GGG didn't want to fight Brook, but your other mate and his Dad shit himself and lost his pen and they never had time to arrange anything else.
    Canelo / Khan was a calculated circus act load of bollocks.

    Knocking out Khan was funny and it added to both the bank account and the highlight reel. Not sure how knocking a guy cold makes you look bad... but if that’s the logic I’ve come to expect from this place. I honestly don’t care if Alvarez and Golovkin beat up Welterweights as every fighter takes a soft fight now and then. You can defend Golovkin for it but he’s the champion (apparently) he should be defending against people in his own division

    Golovkin came for Eubank but had to settle for Brook.

    Canelo fought diva Khan.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Not sure how knocking a guy cold makes you look bad... but if that’s the logic I’ve come to expect from this place. Well you're in luck as I'll explain it to you. The knockout doesn't make him look bad, the fact that they had to resort to not only fighting somebody 1 1/2 to 2 weights lower, but someone widely recognised as
    A. Chinny
    B. Feather fisted
    C. Not in the top 10 of his own weight ffs. And
    D. The closest thing to Lord Lucan in Boxing.


    I honestly don’t care if Alvarez and Golovkin beat up Welterweights as every fighter takes a soft fight now and then. Liar! You are forever digging out GGG for fighting Brook!
    You can defend Golovkin for it but he’s the champion (apparently) he should be defending against people in his own division See, you do care! Like I said, Golovkin wanted a fight, nobody wanted to fight him. He had to find a late replacement because your mate and his Dad bottled it (I notice you've chose to ignore that fact, because you have no answer as to why your little Bum boy superstar was scared as fuck!)
    Golovkin has no previous for picking smaller guys , whereas Oscar constantly cherry picked smaller guys than Canelo for fights with his little "Caneloweight" matchups.
    That little option has now been shut off as he won't be making less than 160 anytime soon.
    So, the only catch weights he'll be doing are between 160 & 168. He's already done The obvious one in JCC Jr. so good luck with that.

    Here's a wild idea for Canelo, fight a top contender at middleweight Shat even a mid ranker would be fine. This talk of him slinking back to 154-CW or having guys come to him is kinda silly. After all didn't he just "beat" the number 1 man at 160 in some eyes, well maybe two eyes, but hard to argue he proved he more than belongs, won no less but be ok with him running back to his safe-space with a straight face simply because he can make a payday and needs a reset.

    Love your post, but... GGG actually actually does have a sizable history of picking smaller guys.
