We will see Sept 16th. I agree talking about retirement is a big red flag, but maybe he's just trying to fool people into getting comfortable. He hasn't predicted a KO or spoke the way Canelo has "No need for rematch, my skills are much better. I gurantee Golovkin won't see 12th round".
Personally, I can see him giving Canelo a true beating, David Lemiuex style
If the shoes were reversed & the fight was exactly the same I would say golovkin won. And where are you getting this backing up from? Jacobs backed him up in the fight also, it was back & forth but I saw Jacobs landing more punches throughout the whole fight & people seem to just count the knock down. And where are you getting this "manhandled" from? Never said he "manhandled" him.
If Jacobs was landing more punches throughout the fight, why did Jacobs look like a bee sting victim and Golovkin didn't have a scratch.
At no point did Jacobs hurt him or make it look like he was in trouble. Despite cheating to a weight advantage.
Had Golovkin been knocked down, the punch stats reversed, and Golovkin was the bee sting victim, you'd not be defending Golovkin, let's be honest here.
People are too bothered about this fans or that fans, just STFU support/watch the fight and discuss the fight and give the fight the backing that it deserves.
I agree. Opposing fans who back the fight is great. There's no issue with that. It's fake fans who will try to manipulate scenarios to fit their agenda which makes forums like this difficult to read at times.
Canelo will decision PIGlovkin and people will cry robbery, but if he goes to the body early a late tko is possible. #IWasBornReady #NoBoxingNoLife #MiEra
'Canelo is gonna decision Golovkin so hard!' - Canelo fans.
In the meantime Golovkin fans are predicting a painful KO.
Sure, and the fans roared for Golovkin while beating on Brook... sure

The fact is , hes always in the headlines for the wrong reasons. He talks a lot of ****e too which doesn't help
Let's be honest- Jacobs was the first decent guy GGG fought in his career, and GGG lost that fight by 1-2 rounds. The later rounds were embarrassing for GGG.
Jacobs showed us what GGG's upper limit is. He showed that GGG is not super man. He showed that when a good fighter actually punches back, GGG doesn't like it and looks ordinary.
Canelo is an elite p4p fighter, and is far better than Jacobs. He is going to embarrass GGG, possibly KO him.
Imagine this. GGG and Jacobs performances were reversed (Jacobs Knocks Golovkin down in the 4th, brings the fight and outlands Golovkin in most rounds)
Can you IMAGINE the chaos around here if that had happened?! My God, you'd all be screaming robbery/exposed a hell of a lot more than you currently are doing.
GGG won a close fight. Happens to all fighters, namely Canelo.
You mean here? Besides Floyd, Canelo is the biggest ticket and PPV seller in the States. I wouldn't say he doesn't have genuine fans
In the States yes because he has a few big names on his resume and already inbuilt Mexican fanbase. However here in the UK he's literally only known because he brutally KO'd Amir Khan.
Canelo fans are realists. Golovkin fans are delusional like McGregor fans.
Can Golovkin win? Sure.
Painful KO? I doubt it.
When has Canelo ever been hit by a legit middleweight? Nevermind the actual strongest in the division. It's not really that far fetched to consider...
Because in boxing winning and losing happens, and ironically, much of the subtextual context comes from Floyd being undefeated, so any scenario to disturb a Floyd Fan is needed. GGG fans and post #48 loyalists surprisingly don't Like Alvarez, probably because he was supposed to beat Floyd, so they kicked Nelo to the curve while still praising PAC.
The fact of the matter is that to PAC fans, like Beercules, won't give props to Nelo or Floyd, read their posts. So amplify that for what's expected and it's not unusual.
It could be a lot of things, GGG fans don't like Nelo because it's affiliated with Oscar, they wanted an undisputed To bandwagon on but didn't happen. They want GGG to win for some closure for the hate they put on Ward and expected him to lose. So many theories, but they all revolve around this.
UK fans usually like Mexican fighters, even their commentators, so they'll most likely root for Alvarez than For Kazakhstan.
Therefore on the American side of posters, I assume they always troll "you just don't want a white guy to win" yet they don't see Alvarez clearly Red Nordid looking, yet they still contradict themselves, so therefore these racist posters just don't like Mexico, it has nothing to do with the fighters. Take GGG Gloveking For Example. That poster just randomly uploaded a pic he found on the net, like that one poster who uploaded some interracial couple kissing as avi pic.
As a fan from the UK, Canelo was loved for KO'ing Amir Khan as he's not very liked here. It's only when he gave his belt away and moved down a division his popularity took a hit. Most UK fans I know of are rooting for GGG to teach him a lesson.

Canelo is carrying more weight than GGG. Though both look in good shape
Do you guys not realize that this fool has KO'ed nothing but B and C level fighters his entire professional career?
Are you going to ignore that the 1st decent (not elite) guy GGG fought, he nearly lost?
Do you not realize that p4p legends like Canelo, Cotto, Mayweather, etc are on a completely different universe compared to domestic level garbage like Geale, Macklin, Stevens, Lemieux, etc?
GGG fans are in for a hellish awakening when he steps in the ring with young Canelo, who unlike him is a proven elite fighter who has actually fought and tested himself against legends like Mayweather, Cotto, Mosley, Trout, and Lara.
Okay so you're predicting Canelo to KO GGG?
If he's so bad, it should be Canelos easiest fight to date? If Golovkin beats Canelo by KO will you admit he's better than Floyd Mayweather? Since Golovkins jumping in with a prime Canelo who has "learned so much".
When two people fight the fans of the sport usually pick a side. Just because you pick one fighter to beat another doesn't make you a fan of the fighter you picked.
This is what I mean, there's not really that many genuine Canelo fans out there.
His ego and pride is far too big to give up.
The corner will be under strict instruction to stop it if it looks like he's going to get the Kel Brook treatment. This will be interesting to see...
You clowns and fake ass Conor fans rallied, hoped and prayed that Conor beat Floyd. You did the same thing uniting with Pac fans against Floyd, foh, lmao.
I didn't, it was pretty clear Floyd would win easily. Can't say I'm a fan of Conor either, the whole event was cringeworthy but the outcome was never in doubt
Floyd gave him "triple L" cuz he said he would beat him if he fought him 3 times in a row (which we all know) & Ward gave him "lil g" cuz he chickened out to fight him (its on record)....And Jacobs already handed him his 1st loss but they didn't give it to him (so they can make the canelo fight). Just give it a little time, he will lose again then you will see the real fake fans start to jump ship.
Would you still be saying Jacobs manhandled Golovkin if the performances were switched. I.e Jacobs knocked Golovkin down in the 4th then outlanded him in most rounds whilst Golovkin was backing up?
I can see 2 scenarios. GGG by KO within 6 rounds, not too dissimilar to the Kel Brook fight.
or a 12 round close competitive fight that GGG edges but Canelo gets the decision.
So that's 8 world champions beaten, 6 as a pro.
Not that bad.
5 posts, are you a Maxi alts? Lol
Nope, long time reader of the forum. I don't really post too often as there's too many agenda driven posters on here.
Yet in a boxing ring (as a pro and amateur), GGG beat Jacobs, Brook, Ouma, Geale, Bute, Lee, Direll wich means 7 world champions.
How many Bud has beaten?
You guys need to stop that GGG bashing and looks at his whole respectable career.
Add Lemieux to that list. He lost his IBF title to Golovkin
People actually think golovkin has some granite chin. Not to be misunderstood, he has a good chin but people dont seem to notice the fuker rarely gets hit on the button or with big shots, he smothers the punches or is protecting his chin.
And TS golovkin has been hurt before.
I agree, though I don't know which fight you're referring to him getting hurt is. I've never seen it, or seen him in trouble. Getting tagged by Kel Brook isn't the same as being hurt or in trouble.
Spence got tagged by Kel Brook way more than GGG, yet he isn't classed as exposed like some people claim.
I know what you're trying to say, but it's just not true. He's tremendous at blocking punches or at least partial punches with his gloves, he has a decent shoulder roll and excellent counter punching, especially counter jabbing. He's not flashy, but he rarely gets hit clean, and when he does, his chin saves him.
I do believe his attack is his main asset of his defence, along with everything else you mentioned. He lands the most jabs out of any boxer today (according to CompuBox) which keeps the opposition backing up and unable to unload. When opponents finally let their hands go, its with reluctance due to thinking more about not getting hit. Opponents end up just trying to survive or fighting fire with fire.
Kel Brook managed to dampen the fire for just 2 rounds before realizing he can't do it for 12 rounds. Personally I can see the Canelo fight going similar to Kel Brook or at worst, the Martin Murray fight.

I'm from the UK and was dissapointed to see HBO had blocked it in many countries. The above is the only stream I could find. Might not be HD but its better than nothing and in English.
But people should take someone whose avatar is a cartoon version of a fictional movie?
CA$HNELO BABY
I can tell by that nickname and comments that you'd happily bendover and part your arse cheeks for Canelo
