Comments Thread For: Team Golovkin: No Negotiating Weight With Canelo, 160 or Vacate
The biggest hurdle in making a fall unification between middleweight champions Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (34-0, 31KOs) and Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez, 46-1-1, 32KOs) is the weight.
I completely disagree with the stance of telling a fighter they have to come in below the weight of the belt they're fighting for. There should be some rule about this with the governing bodies.

It's a joke and an embarrassment If GGG gets the belt from it being vacated instead of fighting Canelo.
His team said 154-168 anyone can get it. Canelo is now the name what he says goes.
its already a joke and embarrassment because a shot welterweight won that belt from a cripple in knee braces at 159 defended it at 157 against gggs leftovers then canelo beat the shot weltweight 1 lb above the 154 division limit
lineal middlweight title without a middleweight bout in its lineage lol, it's the lineal bulimia title

Didn't Pacquiao win numerous titles with fights contracted at a CW?
In fact, he won his 8th divisional belt with a CW against Margarito. Why wasn't it a big deal then?
Great news.....need to start getting some balance and normality back into the world of world title fights and weight divisions....... Cotto started this whole ridiculous situation with sergio Martinez with 155 and then his next two fights he weighed in at 153 1/2 so he didn't even need to fight for that belt......he could have comfortably stayed at light middlweight...and guess canelo followed suit and has had 4 fights at 155 and his last weigh in was still dry at the weight so he could easily come in at 158 and make no difference in the way he looks..... The WBC must accept some of the blame for allowing this to keep happening and they should have stopped it before it got out of hand.....even the WBC cannot bend to canelo now and a written mandatory is a legally binding agreement that will force canelo into fighting glolovkin or else he has to give up the middlweight belt.....the funny thing I actually think the WBC would allow canelo to do what he wants because he is mexican and has the goldenboy backing but they can't because there rules are in place and its mandated so they will also be screwed if they try bend the rules for canelo....A middlweight champion defends his belt from 154.1lb to 160lb its that simple ...
