He only "aged" when he stepped up in competition. That's just coincidence though and has nothing to do with him not looking as good. :dunce:
No you're wrong, he aged because he got older. Nobody wanted to fight him when he was in his prime. Canelo Alvarez choose to relinquish his belt and wait a couple more years to fight GGG.
You know Golovkin is only human, Gennady is turning 36 years old in April of this year ; he was considered worn and past it before Canelo put hands on him, adding the damage that he took on their first encounter makes it difficult to envision Golovkin being in any better condition to perform at the level that's required to beat a elite prime boxer who has more or better: experience, accuracy, speed, footwork, defense and arguably more power.
You gamblers out there, jump on Canelo now, the bookies have Golovkin as the favorite @ -170, giving you +40 cents on the dollar.
What damage did Canelo inflict on GGG? He backpedaled the entire fight.
It's impossible to tell because the comp.only got better as he got older. It's hard for me to envision 2012 GGG not knocking Canelo out but who knows?? Peace.
The "better" competition didn't want anything to do with GGG when he was in his prime. Alvarez waited for him to age the sam way SRL waited for Marvin Hagler to get older before fighting him.
