Saul Canelo vs Rocky Fielding

[palmerq]

Wait did Maddux just say Lemieuxs fight being cancelled cost fans Canelo v Lemiuex in May . What fan? He was reading the script out loud there.

Now lemieux can bugger aff, there's a guy that wins due to size (well not always wins)..

This was just a joke of a fight. The only way they got away with it was by saying it was historic because it’s his third weight division even though everyone knows it’s complete BS.

It’s annoying because Canelo is a good fighter. He can put on exciting fights too. He is just Mexican boxing right now and gets his way for every fight and has the judges in his pocket. He has some good fights to be made at middleweight and he was going to waste his time on Lemieux even after this joke of a fight. Hopefully with Lemieux out of the picture, Canelo will fight Jacobs.

This was for the regular title so it really wasn't a world title fight.
Callum Smith is the SUPER CHAMPION.
Maybe the WBA can make a SUPER DUPER CHAMPION.

Funny how people acknowledge that it isn’t the real championship, which it isn’t, in this instance but pretend it is in other circumstances

Can someone explain this to me.

I thought there were x5 belts in each division..WBC, WBO, WBA, IBF and the IBO belt.

What exactly has Canelo just won?

The wba title. But the wba are cunning gits who decide every so often that one champion is not enough, so they elevate their champion to super champion and make the wba title vacant. For example haye was WBA heavyweight champion, then klitschko beat him, klitschko was then elevated to super champion and they vacated wba title and that's still going today, with manuel charr, fres oqurndo circus :S.... They also don't do it in every division either :S. So I Thi k technically the wba title is the actual historic one but really its a weird second division.. I only recognise the super champion as the actual wba champ.

So Canelo won the second division title but claims it is the premiere league title?

I admittedly don’t know what title is “real” or not half the time. It just doesn’t matter to me. I only reference belts as an excuse to get two people to fight each other in order to unify.
