Yes but this is the major reason boxing has declined. Different promoters, arguments over purse sharing,arguments over catch weight and next thing the fight does not happen. I have been disappointed several times and Canelo won't be the first to forfeit his belt.
If it happens who do you give the edge to?

Where does Canelo want to go? Who is he going to fight?

This will be the biggest payday if his career so far. It's what the fans want to see. That's why he was calling GGG to enter the ring on Saturday. When you're so high up in the mountains, you can only pick a quarell with the sky.

GGG is a killer for real. We saw Canelo look like a chump against Mayweather. Even Amir Khan used him to shine small before he stopped a missile with his face.

Golovkin currently holds I think 2 or 3 belts. That guy is just a monster. How can you KO 22 men in a row?

The word Killer seems like a woefully inadequate description for a man like that.

I would be betting on him.

Amir Khan is a disillusioned average overhyped British athlete.... he should have stuck to beating no name British hopefuls. There is too much ducking and unecessary charade in boxing at the moment, MMA (UFC) is the real deal. Did u watch how Alistair "The Reem" made light work of Alorvksi?

UFC have got a lot of mouth-watering fights this summer. Super pissed I couldn't get a ticket for a bargain for the last show in the Netherlands.

At all o, but I will watch that bout when I have the chance.

So na Netherlands you dey. Amsterdam?

I think Pataki is also based there.

GGG has the highest knockout percentage in middle weight history and he has never been knocked down EVER ( pro,amateur or sparring)
Plus he is bigger than Canelo. So I would bet on him too
The only caveat is that Canelo in his recent fights has fought better boxers than GGG has faced, but that is really because EVERYBODY who is somebody is avoiding GGG.
P.S mayweather in his prime can make almost anybody look like a chump. Canelo took that fight too early, he wasn't seasoned enough to fight a wily ring tactician like Floyd then.

I think Canelo will take the fight, as mentioned by you and Nihilist that's the fight every boxing fan wants to see. Also Canelo has nothing to lose as Floyd Money has taken his unbeaten record. My money is on GGG the Kazakh killer to score a KO victory before round 7.

Floyd is super smart and he cherishes his unbeaten record. He will only have a go at GGG when he feels that GGG is on a decline and for a final "super heavy cheque".

Yup I agree. If Canelo was undefeated he might have found a way of avoiding the GGG. GGG punches harder, has a harder chin and is more experienced.

Yet he could still run his mouth to say something like this:

‘I shut him up and put him in his place.
‘I said if you want to fight, I’m here.
‘Take away Manny Pacquiao and the last people you’ve fought, I’m a bigger name than them. It would make a lot of money.
‘He started screaming but I didn’t understand half of what he was saying.
‘He's living in his own hype. Once you retire, nobody remembers you and Mayweather is one person that not many will remember because he’s so arrogant.

I think you are being unnecessarily harsh on Amir. Most Boxers run their mouth. Infact it's the name of the sport. The more you run your mouth, the more publicity you get. People then hate on you and are willing to the pay per view figures just to watch you get knocked out(more money in the bank for you). From Ali to Sugar Ray . From Roy Jones to the dark destroyer himself. They all did it. Rather unfortunately for Amir, His Mouth is far stronger than His chin.

I think the hype was justified at the beginning. Followed Amir's career since his amateur days and you could tell He was something special even as far back as 02-03. His performances at the summer olympics at Athens was nothing short of special(@17 most of us were busing chasing anything in Skirt). And to be fair to the Media, with each lose, the hype around Amir seems to dwindle

One has to consider also that Amir Khan had to step up 2 weight classes to face canelo.
He boxed well but it was suicidal of him to carry his glass jaw to face a naturally much bigger man. GGG has 2 options, face Canelo or step up in weight and face Andre Ward

raumdeuter:


The manager cannot be the reason the best squad would not make top 4.

The LVG you all love to abuse would even make top 4 ahead of them, Is LvG now better than Pellegrini?

It's popular opinion that pellegrini has largely under achieved with this current crop of players in the league this season.

I will like to know how exactly pellegrini is better than lvg though

100% agree. Im not sure but I think I mentioned in one of my posts here. People forget He had to step up 2 weight division to face Canelo. Also let's not forget that Canelo hydrates pretty quickly in between weight ins and fight nights. However As u said, It was stup$#d of Him to fight not only a man Bigger than Him but also one considered to be a Heavy puncher.

Triple G will box Alvarez before Ward. That I am certain of .There is a huge clamour for that plus it'll be both fighters biggest pay day. If you listened to Canelo's interview straight after the bout, He pretty much said He was ready or in his own words "We don't f@#$k around here"

afrodoc2:


Amir Khan is damaged goods. He has always had a glass jaw and it will only get glassier as he gets older and gets more hits. He has fast hands but his torso and neck movements are not as fast.
GGG vs Canelo is what the people want. GGG vs Floyd would have been great in terms of the contrast in styles and their class but Floyd is not going to go against that assassin right at this moment in his career.
This is why MMA is ruling, fighters fight at their primes and when the people want. Floyd vs Manny was years too late, Canelo vs GGG should take place within 1 year before GGG exits his prime

Lool Amir is awfully mouthy for a ninja with a porcelain jaw. Homeboy just can't take a hit

Mayweather too smart to take up Golovkin at this stage of his career. That's not going to happen. And it would be a pointless fight tbh

I think Golovkin and Canelo should be the next logical fight. Amir is no longer one of the elite either and these British guys should stop feeding the hype

Truth be told I'm waiting for Overeem vs Werdum. His fight vs Cigano last year was what convinced me that he wasn't back for play. Those heavyweight people too lazy self. Werdum has not defended his belt since he beat Velasquez

Let's see how he battles Miocic in UFC 198

Next season is world War. English clubs that have under performed would be storming the market with money next season

Renato Sanches reportedly went for up to 80m Euros.

That's the reason why Bayern quickly signed him. In England, before you spend 80m on a relatively unknown player, you would calculate from now tI'll next year whether he can not just deliver the EPL, but the keys to a mansion in the kingdom of heaven.

In Germany, we already know the winner of the Bundesliga 2016/2017 season. So they afford one or two expensive experiments.

I mean, what's the worst that could happen to Bayern?

Its like I cannot talk about anything UFC related with Olabode89 without being hit with a ban


Well well well what a way to wrap up the season.

Hummels and Sanches within 45 mins of each other

All over the web space Man U fans are especially salty about the Hummels signing and I have been spending the last 3 hours trying to understand why

80m CFA?

We only paid €35m which is standard Jorge Mendes money.

35m ! May rise to 80m....kilode

will he play in every position

If he wins World Player of the Year
Man U have an even higher deal for Martial

I agree Bayern is an excellently run club but I am happy we missed out on Sanches. He is too much of an inexperienced and unproven talent to come to an unsettled club like United and make any impact. He is more likely to succeed in a dominant team like Bayern where he has quality players like Vidal,Alonso and Thiago to shoulder most of the responsibility.

benatia must not be doing well for Bayern to spend big on another defender.
