The Plot Thickens

Sulaimán is desperate to keep the big money fighters in his camp. He doesn't want to piss off Canelo and have him desert the body. But there is a limit to how much he can flout his own rules. Fighters can (and have) successfully sued sanctioning bodies for this kind of thing. It's a tricky balancing act. My best guess - and that's all it is - is that Canelo's team pays GGG to fight at 157/8.

well, at least this indicates that GB and K2 are talking. 7 more days isnt a big issue, and if it leads to a deal then its worth it.

What is his end game? Does he want them to fight in May or does he want them on the same card in May then fight in September?

My guess Canelo fights another Middleweight first then he fights GGG in September.

canelo will run and wbc will bend the rules and make another belt for ggg

No point extending the deadline if some progress hasn't been made - good signs!!

the word run just reminds me of how cotto ran to the back after getting completely dominated and beat up by canelo
