if he beat GGG he WILL have to pay the sanctioning fees. :mindblown:
You pay to hold the belt as well. FM let go belts because he refused to pay sanctioning fees.

WTF are you talking about anyway? They make no money off non-title or mandatory fights. State commission boards handle what I think you are talking about.

This overall is a bad look for Canelo as it was for Bowe when he dropped the WBC title to NOT fight Lennox Lewis at the time.

We all know Canelo is the draw in this equation so money has never been a sticking point, but it's ALSO a clear case of "It Takes Two to Tango" EVEN with GGG not having a major PPV history. The problem I have w/ Nelo is that he's not even looking to fight the Top Jr Middleweights if he isn't fighting at Middleweight more than trying to fish for another Welterweight with a "Name".

I also think vacating the most prestigious title in Boxing (in his Prime) outside of the Heavyweight title is a disgrace to the Mexican lineage he has no choice but to follow. We can talk about "Business decisions" all day, but at the end of the day this is a CLEAR duck move on Nelo / Golden Boy's end. If the roles were reversed everyone here nay saying GGG would be having a field day right now.

Canelo never should've had the belt in the first place. The weight issue is bullshyt, been saying this. Has nothing to do with who will actually win.

This why you stans fall for this shyt and it makes the fight even bigger. Emotions have always been apart of boxing promotions, and they letting drama rise to a climax.

if you look at the boxing aspect canelo has nothing to fear from GGG, GGG is too slow, and Canelo is too skilled

No you don't. You pay for them when you fight. They get a percentage when you fight. Or if you're a big enough fighter you give them a flat fee.

Canelo getting roasted, but it's a smart business move. Let Glovkin unify, then move up and take all his straps next summer. This is chess not checkers,cand Saul been studying Floyds moves for years. Oscar just along for the ride @this point.

dudes really getting caught up in canelo dropping a belt he doesn't give a shyt about. if he defends the belt and beats golovkin, now he has 4 belts in a division he's not gonna stay at. after canelo beats golovkin he's not staying at middleweight regardless. whether he drops one now or 4 later, who gives a fukk.
If he didn't give a shyt about it, just like Cotto, why fight for it in the first place? "But but the belts give the fighter leverage for money and negotiations ". All this a side bullshyt, is really hurting boxing.

If De La Hoya doesn't get this done, he's gonna look about as stupid as someone can look in the boxing game.
The reality is this, after red puss, dlh has nobody. He keeps trying to make red puss a star as big as floyd and manny. Red puss doesnt have it like that though. Its really not a bad thing if they lose to GGG. They claim red puss isnt a real middleweight, so take the fight, get kod, and go back down to 154 and make some great fights. But lets be real, red puss just isnt that good. I think the end is near for oscar in boxing.

He dropped the belt cuz he was forced to take the fight, without the belt he is not forced to fight him and can duck the fight accordingly... All that about time table in stuff is nonsense.

I'm trying make myself look good? Only in your eyes, you see that way, that's why you always butt hurt. You talk shyt on me and I smash you, then you wanna play the victim card.
fukk outta here

This the type of fakkit shyt I'm talking about. Yall can never prove me wrong so you gotta make up shyt. I said I know nikkaz who sons got them locked up which is true.

and when did Floyd go on a vacation, he didn't even do no time.

Like I said you can get this work don't gotta run your background down to me, we can cut to the chase.

You constantly on my dikk, I say what I say is dumb, but can't point out on flaw or one error.

You admit to being a stan, there's nothing else you can say, you old bitter washed up chump

you a c00n, you hate on self confident black man.

You hate on any black man making moves, which is why you hate lebron and floyd making the same nonsensical posts.

Put you got Kobe in you avi, a true blue c00n


Prove you wrong. How the fukk do you get chosen as WOAT unless you're always flamboyantly wrong? How stupid are you for real. You the one up here blaming Floyd's oldest son for getting locked becuz lil man decided to climb out the window when guards wouldn't let him out the house. But I'm the stan huh?

And what moves have Floyd really made? Everything he's ever done post-Bobfather is attributed to the genius of Al Haymon. AB just said that two weeks ago. Get all the way the fukk outta here with that bullshyt.

they do have to pay for holding the belt but thats part of the game. the WBC champ goes in against the IBF/WBA champ. the difference is, Floyd was telling media before the fact that the belts didnt make him and he would not pay the sanctioning fees. I think he did that with Zab and the IBF. he did it in another fight too. told them before the fight he didnt want the belt. he only wanted to pay the WBC. you dont hold a belt and then say I am dropping it because the fight cant be made....and THEN use not wanting to pay the sanctioning fees as an excuse. did Canelo already pay fees for the Khan fight? if he did, what you are saying is moot my nikka.

Belts don't mean much anymore breh because seemingly everybody and they mamma has one...you got stupid shyt like super diamond tecate IBCFGJJ featherweight champion...:smh:

That said the WBC is the one strap that carries weight...Canelo gives a shyt about it but not more than he does the money...the prize in prizefighting is the money...The belt is like the gift baskets they give at the Oscars...
