Someone should inform him, that he only has 15 days after May 5th to agree to a fight with GGG. If he doesn't, he's being stripped:wow:

pretty much canelo is rapidly approaching billy joe saunders territory with his recent comments..but he has a point..he has his fight with khan so we'll see shortly what he's about afterwards

but if he didnt want that middleweight title, the lineal status it carried, and wanted to proclaim he is still a 154 pounder he could have just made it a non title affair with cotto....it would have added credibility to his statement that he only wanted the chance to get cotto in the ring..period

I read yesterday that he's saying the only reason this fight is at 155, is because Khan wanted the belt on the line:manny:


At the end of the day though, getting stripped of your title instead of facing the mandatory opponent (who's ranked at the top with you in the division) looks bad. Instantly draws Riddikk Bowe/Lennox Lewis comparisions in my mind:yeshrug:
