Hahahahah!! You sound like that sissy 4th grader who keeps getting his lunch money took everyday. Wait......thats how Canelo sounds when wnyone mentions GGG lol. I guess you two have alot in common. How do you know how big my dick is by the way? Have you been trying to suck me off just like Canelo?? Damn dude there are places for that? Love having you in the forum! Wouldnt be the same without Suck Boys like yourself lmao!! Got Em!!
Are you joking? There was no offer, no negotiations. They dropped the belt within the 15 days before even negotiating. And this of course is long after Canelo sign a deal that he would face Golovkin after Khan and that they would negotiate terms, hence the extension he was granted for Khan. He reneged on the deal.
From yesterday: Tom Loeffler received no communication from Golden Boy since Canelo Alvarez decided to vacate his middleweight title.

It's impossible to take risks, when the fighters in your division don't want to be the risks. How does that not make sense in your head? Is Liam Smith more worthy of taking the Canelo risk than GGG? Has he done more in the division where Canelo is the lineal champion than GGG?
The difference in switching the names you dummy, is that Canelo is in a better position to take the risks. Everyone jumped at the chance of fighting DLH because he was a money fighter, the difference is that DLH jumped back at fighting people considered the best. Canelo is a money fighter, and he's avoiding risks (for example I don't know Golovkin?) while GGG is trying to chase down perceived risks and getting ridiculous excuses and nonsense.
It's honestly like saying "why is Charley Burley considered so great he never beat Sugar Ray". That's what happens when people refuse to fight you and your name isn't attached to money.

Riverside's Chris Arreola looks likely to face Deontay Wilder in heavyweight title bout

Maybe the third time will be a charm.
Riverside's Chris Arreola has emerged as the front-runner to fight unbeaten world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder in a summer bout.
Arreola (36-4-1, 31 KOs) has twice previously lost in his heavyweight title shots, to Vitali Klitschko in 2009 and Bermane Stiverne in 2014.
Both of those losses happened in Southern California. It's uncertain now where Wilder, who beat Stiverne for his heavyweight belt in 2015, will fight Arreola.
The World Boxing Council ruled Wednesday that Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) is free to pursue an immediate heavyweight title defense as the WBC works to resolve a positive drug test given by Wilder's previously scheduled opponent Alexander Povetkin of Russia.
Povetkin has tested positive for the banned substance Meldonium and the WBC ruled that his May 21 title shot at Wilder in Moscow needed to be postponed.
In its Wednesday statement, the WBC said Wilder should move swiftly to arrange another fight if he chose to do so.
Two officials close to the situation but unauthorized to speak publicly about the talk said Arreola is Wilder's choice.
Given that most fighters need seven to eight weeks to effectively prepare for a bout, a likely time frame for Wilder-Arreola would be mid-July.

I already gave you the link where Loeffler mentioned GBP's stance on the fight and that they stood firm on their offer. This was before vacating the title. Loeffler was the one that came out saying GBP called him the Monday after the fight so they can start negotiating. Something did happen before Canelo vacated I hope you know
Lol the one where Loeffler said Oscar called him the day after the fight and had a very brief conversation, Oscar saying he'll call Tom later in the week? And then literally never called him again and Canelo dropped the belt? That's some how relevant, even though Loeffler since then has stated Golden Boy has not contacted them, there and have been no negotiations? You're retarded battle. There was no offer, Tom Loeffler the guy you're quoting incorrectly has said numerous times.
Wow. That is a size difference. I could actually see Crawford trying to push the action in the opening rounds to get respect and possibly catch postol cold. I think he could come out more aggressive and not wait to counter.
Props:
2-0-Sixx and 2-0-Sixx
Yeah I agree, and I think Crawford is going to have to since Postol is going to want to box and use his size/reach advantage. I still favor Crawford though, Postol seems shaky at times and sloppy, definitely enough holes for Crawford to have plenty of openings. Won't be easy though and if he doesn't hurt or get Postols respect early it's going to get very difficult.
