Canelo goooooooone!!!

I was hoping to watch GGG pound Canelo into submission, so this sucks for me. Canelo won't suffer either, his fans will still pay to watch him fight a no hoper. Who can we consider as GGGs signature opponent now?

Ideally Charlo drops stay busy fight 3 weeks away and comes in already trained up, mandatory and champ get it done. Honestly I'd pay for that before a Canelo rematch. Then again Jacobs could do same and that's a rematch that surprisingly went silent. Also the only fight I had Golovkin losing by a point. . But today that sounds like a fairytale with promotions etc. Andrade has been floated a lot but think Golovkin makes him a bug on the windshield.

I wanted Canelo to get battered too.

Now he has avoided a certain loss and will continue to fight with his loyal fans paying over the odds for him to beat Smith and Rhodes type opponents.

What is to say Canelo did not delibetaretly sabotage the fight?

Now I'm no fan of old ginger pubes but there are plenty of ways to get out of/delay/sabotage a fight other than failing a drug test and having a black Mark above your name for the rest of your career.

True but this way he will never be asked to fight GGG again. I know I am stretching the point but just when I thought I could not hate Canelo any more than I do, he does this.

I would like to see him banned for a couple of years. It's time to set an example and show people that cheating is not how you get things done. Would it be possible for Golovkin to sue him for loss of earnings or something like that? Golovkin already delayed fighting Canelo and now Canelo has cheated and pulled out. It's very messed up. I would be interested in really tightening the screw if I was GGG.

If GGG fights in May then his loss of earning will not be that much and I am sure insurance would not pay out never mind Canelo.

Just watched his statement on YouTube, apparently they are not cancelling the fight but just looking to postpone it until September

It'll be fucking massive. He's only ever made three or so million purses before his last fight. He made more in his last fight than he did during his entire career previous to the Alvarez fight and he would have made another tidy eight figure sum from the rematch. Now he's 36 and looking at having to fight guys like Charlo for two or three million. The person most upset by this cancellation is Golovkin, no doubt about it. Put yourself in his shoes. You've just lost a twenty million dollar payday and you now have a bunch of dangerous/tricky options for about ten percent of what you would have made for the rematch. Fancy having ten fights against Charlo/Saunders/Jacobs level people when you could have made the same money from the rematch?

Golovkin will be desperate for the rematch to happen and Alvarez really needs it now too. He's going to get at least a six month ban so Golovkin has to keep busy till next Cinco which is the most likely date for it to happen.
