Simple Question: Are you Team Golovkin or Team Canelo?

This forum is 70% Team GGG. I bet it'd be closer to 80-85% if I had made this thread after Canelo dropped the belt.

GGG all the way without a doubt

Team GGG aka God Of War aka Mexican Kazakhstanian When he enters the ring,you'll be in a world of hurt.

Team Golovkin. Get ready for the pain.

Still looking to get 65 more votes to make it official!

133 votes so far, albeit around 15 or so are from alts, majority picking GGG. Looking to get at least 200. Keep em coming.

GGG inherited all of Pacquiao's former fans, casuals, the knockout seekers, the power punching seekers, brawler seekers, and UFC fans that switch between being boxing and MMA fans. This alone was able to grant him a solid fanbase that constantly talk about him and give him media attention. Canelo inherited Mexican and Mexican American support but that's about it unfortunately. Boxing fans in general have lost the respect that he gained when he beat guys like Lara, Trout, Angulo and so on. You (and them) DKSAB... :)

I like both guys

All I'm saying is there's a difference between display of skill between guys like Wade and Lemieux compared to more elite fighters that he doesn't appear to want to fight at this time. Such as who exactly? He already beat Lemieux who is the 4th best middleweight in the world according to ring magazine. The guys above Lemieux (Canelo, Saunders, Jacobs) have been mentioned many times by GGG and his team, they are actively chasing those fights.

Nah I think your doing a disservice to GGG fans, I wouldn't say I fit any of those stereotypes. I like the way GGG carries himself in and out of the ring, he is respectful and comes across as genuine. I also like the excitement he brings in his fights, it's not just about power with him, he has the fundamentals down very well. Your underrating his technical ability imo, cutting off the ring is an art form in itself and you can see the that there is thought to everything he does.

I voted Canelo on accident, Team Triple G all day son.

racist bullcrap Degenerated haters will always be degenerated haters. Depressed, bored, unfulfilled life, bad education? Become a hater of a fighter, of his fans and get some attention for once. Haters gonna hate.

Team GGG and would do a perma ban bet with any Cuntelito fan, if fight gets made.

I'm desperate to see Canelo lose because he's Mexican, I know I speak for nearly every one here even though Canelo is ten years younger than GGG and will be in exciting competitive match ups for a long time to come and GGG is just looking for one big pay day before calling it quits due to his age. Wow. Now that's some ig'nant shit.

You're mad because what I say is true to the core. I see through you brothas. :sombrero::peeright::unitedsta Most of the boxing fans I talk to in my neighborhood are black or Mexican but for whatever reason most of them don't believe in Canelo. For whatever reason the overwhelming majority of people I spoke to picked Cotto to beat Canelo, and I argued and argued until I finally just made bets with them. Then they went and did the same shit picking Khan to beat Canelo, and I made their pockets less fat once again. I think he looks less elite to the naked eye because he fights in a style that's not typical among Mexican fighters, or any fighter with his body type. He's a big, bulky guy who is strong and thick yet he fights in a slicker style. It looks "off" to them and they always pick the other guy to win. I don't think it had anything to do with race. I've always favored Canelo.

Golovkin. Canelo is a diva!

I don't know yet. If Canelo tries to drain him I hope GGG knocks him out. If Canelo takes the fight at 160 I'd like to see the upset. This is where I lie too... If the fight happens at the full 160 or at least at a weight that isn't designed to drain Golovkin then I'll be behind Canelo hoping for the upset. I assume this is the only way the fight happens. I like the way GGG fights and there's nothing to dislike about the fighter himself but I will be pulling for Alvarez to justify his place as the new face of boxing. Winning this fight on fair grounds does it.

You enjoy mismatches ? GGG's career has basically been what Canelo has just been vilified for, fighting no hopers. The fact Canelo has never fought at the full limit of 160 and GGG and his sparring partners claim he's wrecking light heavies is a joke, I've no desire to even see this fight, I'd much prefer to see Canelo campaign at 154 and GGG at 168, seem as though 160 isn't a competitive division and we all know GGG is just sticking about 160 for a payday he couldn't earn in 7-8 of his mismatches against a guy who has never fought at the full weight limit. When was the last time or have we ever seem GGG in a competitive fight when he's not blowing out overmatched opponents, he punches likes a light heavy from all accounts, I feel he'd be better suited at 168 or 175 if he's genuinely bothered about his fans. All I see are excuses to protect Canelo, he's never fought at the full limit but routinely comes in over 168 on fight night. Against Khan he even refused to be weighed in on fight night suggesting that he was even bigger than normal. You criticize GGG for fighting mismatches but when he chases after someone who could give him a real test you complain? I dont understand fans like you, this fight would be more interesting than anything at 168 for GGG (aside from maybe Ward) and more interesting that any potential opponent Canelo would fight at 155.
