Canelo is a fantastic fighter. He really is. His discipline and technique are absolutely ATG level. But there's no 'redemption'. He chose to postpone Golovkin fight by years, then got busted for PEDs. Fighting Kovalev who was coming off 2 KO losses and almost got stopped by Yarde 2 months prior was good, but far, far from great.
The facts wont change. He aged G, got a gift draw, got busted for PEDs, then won a hotly disputed decision by 1 round against an over the hill fighter.
Great post!
Conelo can only redeem himself by admitting he waited for GGG to age and move to HW to fight the Gypsy king
He needs to beat Golovkin clean. One duck, one robbery, and one very questionable decision so far.
I think given Golovkin's fading skills, Canelo should have no problem this time around anyway.
