Canelo eyes another lame zebra

Canelo Alvarez to pile on 32lb to face cruiserweight world champion

]

No way this will be at 200lbs though.... If it is then fair enough, sure makubu isn't that great but he's pretty strong and tough and that's a big weight difference.. If it's a catch weight under something like 190 then it's a bit crap..

Hahahaha... He could've made it a little less obvious. Going up to 175 first and feigning interest by taking on a couple of journeymen... before saying "hey! I can go up to cruiser and fight for a title there!"

But no. Like in the old Monopoly game... "go directly to GO... collect $200." Not even the slightest hint of looking Beterbiev's way. It's all smoke and mirrors from the little bitch. He's scared shitless of a real challenge... so he skips OVER the division to do the ultimate cherry-picking. And his fans bend over for it, while singing his praises. Reminds me of another hypnotic Pied Piper, but in the political arena.

I almost feel sorry for Ginger fans who have to defend these chickenshit actions. It must be gut-wrenching to have to come up with excuses all the time.

What Canelo is doing is not physically possible without using illegal means.

There is no way he should be attempting this outrageous jumping up the weights and picking off trinkets without proper scrutiny, but he is.

This is the equivalent of Josh Taylor jumping up the next weight beating Crawford/Spence and then taking on and beating Charlo at light middleweight and then his brother at middleweight.

This will be exposed eventually.

You're right, @Master

Except there will be a combination of factors involved. Canelo will bulk up legally or otherwise, under the approving eye of the Sulaiman Family. But he'll also drain the other guy (I forgot his name already) as much as possible.

This isn't boxing anymore. These are extremely well calculated, predetermined events to further a bogus cause. If I wanted to watch this sort of B.S. I'd switch over to WWE.

WBC have accommodated this fight for Canelo whilst at the same time denied Whyte his mandatory position because he is taking legal action against them. Hypocrisy of the WBC is sickening.

Makabu was knocked out by Bellew after flooring him.

Lawrence Okolie's chances of unifying the cruiserweight division is not going to happen just yet. He tweeted "I get it, Canelo is a f****** g but that's another belt I can't unify now.

[Primo Carnera]

Somebody told me today that it's a catchweight. Now if it's a catchweight, it is a fucking disgrace. Even if it's not a catchweight, it's only just acceptable.
But like @Master said, to go up that much weight , and then probably come down is pretty impossible without "Assistance"

why can't lawrence fight mairis?

[Master]

Okolie wants to unify the division and has been trying before he moves up to heavyweight.

Canelo threatening to move weights makes it harder for Okolie as the other champs will sit and wait for the additional pay day that Alvarez brings.

I agree with you point that the other champs should unify and put themselves at the front of the queue like Beterbiev.
