Canelo fails drugs test

It would be great if GGG fights Charlo instead, if Canelo remains suspended.

The 2 fights I want to see because they are the 2 fights that prove most about the division. People can pretend and elevate alphabet titles or names. But if you want to see the best fight the best you want GGG vs Jacobs/Charlo.

Sidenote- completely possible BJS would beat Charlo. Difference between Charlo and BJS is Charlo has power in either hand that gives that element of unknown.

I agree. My first choice of a replacement opponent would be Charlo. Jacobs would be a good choice too because he fights the week before against a nobody and could easily cancel it. BJS could also be a good choice if his hand is better. I’m just nervous that with all of these good options, the fights will be cancelled and GGG will end up fighting a nobody.

That would be highly disappointing but fit the career where fight date took priority, then venue, then opponent if not a superstar payday.

But, even with higher levels I have a hard time believing Clenelo will be punished. Hope to be wrong but I don't have much faith in the system. In fact I'm so jaded by boxing I wonder if Clenelo failed on purpose to set up a fight 6 months later with GGG 6 months older. But that's full on tin foil hat theory.

Wellllll........... not so fast. I may be jaded as well, but nothing surprises me anymore, especially when done by proven cheaters and duckers.

The fight will go ahead. There's no way the Nevada athletic commission suspend him for the fight. They know who pays their wages.
