It wouldn't be welching, but I hope they don't fight again.

[Kalan]

I hope they do... And Golovkin can take a much bigger lead... Force Canelo to come to him -- and knock him out.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

He's not knocking canelo out no matter how many times they fight.

[Tanzio]

I hope they rematch in May. I think that we would see a bit different fight and 3G would get another huge payday. In the meantime he can retire Cotto.

I don't see Oscar allowing this rematch for a year or more

I get the feeling that Canelo has no immediate interest in a rematch. The clause is there but so is the memory of the punches he took. And it could have been so much worse for him if he had fought 'Mexican' style.

[SFW]

Canelo is going to hear about the time Golovkin beat him everyday until he fights him again. That will get to him.

Golovkin is contractually bound to grant Canelo a rematch, not vice versa.

Thats an interesting take. I agree with you.
It's a Mexican pride thing. He lost to GGG and furthermore, he ran and did not fight like he said he would. I think Golden Boy would want to wait a year, let GGG slide a bit more and hype the crap out of it. But I agree with your perspective and Canelos countrymen might sway him to fighting sooner.
