    you consider that site a reputable source?

    it suggests alvarez may force jack to come down to 168lbs to fight for his cruiserweight title?:duck:

    There is no wait. Canelo has no intentions of fighting Bena. He knows what would happen.

    Would it SURPRISE You???...Present Day Canelo Alvarez is 100% Devoid of SHAME, Obviously...

    If/When Canelo-Jack is Signed and There's a Presser Announcing It, the Boxing Media Would Be Doing Our Sport a DISSERVICE If They DIDN'T Dedicate 90% of Their Questions to David Benavidez and the Bivol Fallout...@ That Point, the Boxing Media Would Be COMPLICIT In Canelo's Fuckery...

    REED Still Hasn't Gotten Around to Watching Canelo-Ryder and WILL NOT Watch Canelo-Jack, if Indeed that's Canelo's September Opponent...

    Also, the Time has Come for Canelo to Be STRIPPED of His Super Middleweight Titles, Forthwith, Since He CAN'T Be Bothered to Fight the BEST Guy in the Fucking Division...

    if it's a cruiserweight bout, it would be very interesting

    Canelo vs. a 39 Year Old Blown Up Super Middleweight, @ Cruiserweight, is "Very Interesting"???...

    Im not sure the blown up smw etiquette applies to jack. Hes a big guy who had success at 175 for years (is crawford a blown up lightweight?). His age is a worry though, but canelo is no spring chicken himself

    Without Question, Badou Jack's BEST Fighting Years were Spent @ '68 and REED's Using the Word "Best" Loosely Because Even Then, Jack was an Extremely AVERAGE Fighter by World Class Standards...PATENTLY Average, @ BEST...

    Crawford ISN'T Applicable Because CLEARLY, '35 Wasn't His Best Weight, as Evidenced by the FACT Dude Has KO'ed Every Single Welterweight Opponent He's Faced:Dont:...CLEARLY, Bud's Stronger @'47 Than He Was at '35 and Arguably '40...Pretending Badou Jack's a Cruiserweight is Like Pretending Floyd's a Welterweight...

    Canelo vs Jack is a SHIT Fight Consisting of an OLD, AVERAGE Fighter, 2 Divisions ABOVE His Best Weight...And Canelo's Trying to Pass it Off as Some MEANINGFUL Achievement In His "5th Weight Class", as a SMOKESCREEN for the Obvious Fact He DOESN'T Want to Fight David Benavidez...At ALL, EVER...

    REED Can't and Won't Co-Sign on the Canelo Fuckery...Not Any Loooooooooooooonger...REED's Literally Seen EVERY Canelo Bout (In REAL Time) Since he Faced Cotto's Brother, Up UNTIL Triple G 3...Didn't See the Ryder Bout and Probably WON'T @ This Point, Nevermind Canelo vs. Jack...

    Canelo was a Fighter REED STOPPED What he was Doing to Watch, the Type of Fighter You PLANNED Weekends Around...Not Any Looooooooooooonger...

    if jack is forced to make 168lbs to defend his 200lb title its a farce.

    if he has to make a specified weight above 175 and cant enter the ring at more than 190lbs, then that makes more sense.

    Very arguable that jack best years were at 168. He had some very good performances at 175, and if its performance against Makabu tells us anything, its that he handled the 200 pounds.limit just fine. If it's a Cruiserweight fight, im pretty sure that small ass canelo will be dwarfed by jack

    I think Canelo is self-aware enough to know that he's declining. Of course outwardly he'll project confidence, but internally I'm sure he knows that Bivol and Benavidez are bad fights for him to take at this point.

    Jack and Charlo, he sees them as lesser and beatable.

    If Canelo is aware of his decline then his next 3 fights should be Charlo(September), Berlanga(in February) after maybe fighting in Canelo v Charlo undercard and Munguia in May or September 2024.

    All easy winnable fights.....

    If That's Indeed Canelo's 3 Fight Plan, Cool, Just VACATE the Fucking Titles...Don't Hold the Super Middleweight Division HOSTAGE Over Your Selfish FUCKERY...

    No doubt...I don't know why he keep the titles...at this point in his career they mean nothing. Whoever wins them after teh vacate won't have leverage on him if they ever have to fight.

    Canelo was just checking if Badou needed the money bad enough......

    Now if he do this shit to Benevidez "catchweight of 163-165" it's different...

    Sigh.....Not interested in Canelo's retirement tour. Badu Jack is a solid fighter but nothing special. As a fan I'm disappointed he won't fight Charlo or Benevidez. The fights everyone wants to see.

    Badou Jack just came out and said he’s not fighting Canelo. Even said he should fight Benavidez.

    You guys are pretty severe on Canelo. Badoo Jack would have been a great fight without the weight clause bullshit. I like how Jack exposed it in Twitter and basically put Canelo on the spot to fight Benavidez. Sadly, it won't make much waves imo since he s not a mainstream star

    Nah, I don't even care. Everything is going as it should. Let the two young lions, Benavidez and Morrell, fight.

    It's fitting that Canelo fights Jermall. Two inactive guys looking at the backsides of their careers.

    I wouldn't qualify Canelo as inactive. In fact, he's probably a bit above average scheduling wise for a top fighter. But yeah, Morell and Benavides would be an awesome fight, is it officiall??? Honestly I doubt it will happen soon as it makes 0 sense for Benavidez imo

    I don't buy too much into these online shenanigans. Caleb Plant also said he wouldn't fight Canelo then took the fight. But I hope it's true because Charlo vs Canelo would be more attractive to watch.
