Can you blame him? GGG needs to stop chasing because it ain't happening anytime soon. Either move up or keep collecting checks for beating up on struggle middleweights

from a fan perspective, i would like the to see ggg-canelo, no later than next may.

from a business perspective, i would book ggg-canelo 2 years from now.


i don't believe canelo is scared of ggg. i think oscar saw how long it took pac-floyd to get made and how much money it made by making fans and casuals wait for it come happen. a fight with ggg-canelo, has ppv written all over it. to maximize and get the most out of this fight financially, shyt has to be build up. to book ggg-canelo now, and settle for 500K ppvs :camby: i think it can be 750-800K if put together properly.

hbo is doing a great job with ggg as far as exposure but, he still needs that dance partner/opponent to get him out there. there's enough fights for ggg out there to last him before a big fight with canelo, guys like turenao johnson, lemieux, andy lee, n'dam, few mandys. shyt i wouldn't even mind seeing ggg, take a fight at 168 to stay busy and come back down to 160. i would love to see ggg-abraham or ggg-froch at 168. :banderas:

I can't say I'm a fan of canelo or GGG but I watch all their fights when they're on and I love their punching styles. Emanuel Steward and Goosen say this era lacks knock out artist because fighters aren't taught to punch properly, the amateur system credits pitter patter punches and fighters use 16oz gloves too often which fukks up there punching technique...I truly think Canelo and GGG are some of the FEW true punchers we have left I'm this era.

Side Note: Emanuel Steward said that when he met Hearns, he couldn't punch hard at all, I guess that means power can be taught somewhat.

Oscar's on that Cappadonna Steez - Milk That COW. I ain't mad at him though for doing it. Canelo is the best fighter in his roster now.

This is smart for both sides. This fight has 1mil PPV buy potential. Canelo's stock is going to go way way up after he has a huge PPV clash with Cotto and debacles him. Unless Cotto fights him after Canelo (unlikely) GGG doesn't have an opponent that can get him on PPV. The smart thing to do would be to get him on a few successive Canelo cards so that as more and more people are seeing Canelo they're seeing the Good Boy Tour.

First JCCjr, then Cotto, GGG keeps on missing out on PPV gateways :sadcam:

Not just that but I think he understands that he pushed Canelo too soon for the Floyd fight.

Outside of the Charlos and K9 he's pretty much beat everyone at 154 worth a damn.

I say let him finish cleaning out 154 and then push for GGG next September.

Here's the thing tho... I think GGG loses to Monroe this weekend.
