<p>There is talk Canelo and Pacman could fight at junior middleweight , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Be a massive payday for Canelo compared to a possible triple G fight and could have something to do with stalls in negotiations for that one , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Weight is the major stalling point in that match up , Canelos camp wants a catch weight , Triple g s camp are saying fight us at true middleweight and they cant come to an agreement. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>But with little happening for G , there are bigger fights for him if he moves up to super middleweight to fight the likes of Andre Ward etc. but they are showing little interest in that option , but may be forced to at some stage , if he wants to chase the money. </p>

<p>This catch weight stuff is bullshit. Canelo has made a niche division for himself.</p> -
He's not the first , it's been happening for years , I don't mind so much if you have two fighters from different divisions meeting in the middle to make a fight happen and evening up any advantages.<br><br>
But never for a title , if a belt is on the line , you should be made to fight under the proper weight of that title .<br><br>
Danny green held a cruiser weight title and used to make his challenges fight at s catch weight when defending it , was ridiculous . -
<p>Joshua to make his first defence against Dominic Breazeale on 25 June</p>

<p>Catch weights, waaaay too many different belts, ranking systems that are made up on the fly.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Boxing sure does make it hard for the marginal fan to stay interested. </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Canelo needs to decide if he is a middleweight or not , if not , let his title go , and go back down , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>He has been at least been given a timeline after his upcoming defense against Amir Khan ( also not a middleweight ) at a catch weight ,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The problem for triple G , he is a great middleweight , but he is in an era of no other genuine good middleweights , which is why he hasnt fought anyone yet, there is nothing out there for him </p> -
<p>Fury does make me laugh</p>

<p>Fury is padding his demise. He knows hes toast and he's preempting it all by saying he doesn't give a shit. He's made his money and he obviously eating. He's done.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Expect the come back fight when hes broke in a couple of years. </p> -
<p>Im expecting Klitschko to be focused and determined in his efficient way, </p>
<p> </p>
<p>And Fury, who bloody knows , to look like that 2 months out is not ideal , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>He took him by surprise in the last fight , frustrating him , but you would think Klitschko knows what to expect this time </p> -

<p>It's not Movember Baron.....</p>

<p>Completely agree with what Raz said as is often the case, it would be nice of he was sensible with the $$$ and set himself up and still had enough to pop down to the local every sunday to regale everyone with tales of how he beat the champ ( by which stage at his height he could be about 150-160kg ). The flipside is you can picture every "Gypo" hanger on trying to get a slice of the pie.....one really hopes he is wiser than the other Tyson. You get the feeling under all the bullshit he is quite shrewd, but then he is a boxer and no other athletes in history can piss away hard earned cash like they can.</p> -
<p>I honestly think he is a bit smarter than what he makes out , </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Acting the fool is all part of the act, </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not a great boxer, but still able to come up with a fight plan to achieve what no one else has for a long time </p> -

<p>I wasn't, it was a genuine question. Crucial was the really funny one. Anyway can you please stay on topic ? we're trying to discuss the sweet science not get in an interweb argument here......</p> -
I'm glad Fury comes across as such a tool, as it gives me all the reason to watch him get smacked.<br><br>
If he were to beat Wlad a second time though, I think Wlad would be a broken man, beaten by a buffoon. For that reason alone, I hope Wlad is mega fired for a final masterclass before he retires (which I thin he will after winning).<br><br>
As Raz said I can see Tyson and the family circus riding off into sunset. Years later, there will be a fat bloater sitting In the pub telling all the other bar flies that he used used to be champion of world. -
