Canelo fails drugs test

[Kirkland Laing]

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

It's not sounding good, the theatres that were set to screen the fight have removed all advertising as has HBO.

If a Canelo gets demolished and nobody sees it....did Canelo lose at all?


GGG is in a bad situation here, there are very capable fighters waiting for him, VERY capable and just looking bad harms his aura of invincibility.

Jacobs would be difficult in a rematch, Charlo is a difficult style, BJS is a tough style, Andrade is just a tough fighter though I worry he's waited too long to challenge the title holders.....there's not a lot of easy options for GGG and I think the guy honestly cares about being the best of the best so I don't think he'd want to look like he punked out of a fight either.


That said Canelo aint' going to be easy either especially if he's juiced which he'll have a little bit of a mental edge with GGG wondering "Is he clean now or is he still gassed?" only Canelo and his crew will know for certain.



For the good of boxing a GGG 1st round demolition of Canelo would be wonderful, but I fear we'll be waiting until the late rounds, maybe GGG stops him this time (lord I hope) but maybe Canelo lasts the distance again in which case those idiots on the Golden Boy payroll will get a do over on fucking the fans.

I agree. GGG was a great fighter but the MW division is getting better. He is older now and he has serious threats in the division. A few years ago he didn’t have any serious threats.

When was the last time Andrade looked good?

When was the last time Andrade looked good?

Depends. Do you think he has gotten better looking with age?
