Canelo is actually "doing" what we asked GGG to do for all these years

    The two had a vastly different set of circumstances and opportunities but there's no question Canelo is crafting a legend irrespective of some of the questionmarks. Always gonna have a soft spot for Golovkin for being one of a few fighters who helped me re-engage with the sport and consider him the best middleweight since BHops but a lack of real career defining wins and the apparent lack of urgency to rectify it hurts his legacy considerably.

        If GGG had Canelo's resume they'd be calling him the GOAT. Greater than Ali, SRL, etc combined. Hell, I had ine guy tell me G was greater than Hagler with his current resume. And this was before he even fought Jacobs

          Not only did he not fight anyone above his weight class, which wasn't a big deal, but he fought bum after bum waiting on paydays. Any other elite fighter would get crucified for doing that!

          And yet you have people defending that BS.

              Didn't GGG say he'd fight anyone from 154 to 160, or 168 or something? Lol what a disappointment.

                oh really? so marvin hagler is less of a fighter for staying at 160? We the fans didnt want clenelo fighting amir kahn , liam smith, chavez jjr, rocky fielding, kovalev on 3 weeks notice, yildirim and callum after his gift decision vs ryder. nelo has to move up cause he is proven drug cheat and cant make lower weights. red s a proven cheat with judges blantantly cheating for him his whole career.

                  BBB side was writing checks his ass couldn’t cash.
                  Whats he done since being sonned by Canelo? Nothing. Canelo owns his legacy, his 0, and his MW titles. They reside on Canelo’s mantle.

                    I'm a big fan of Andre Ward, but to be honest Golovkin and Canelo have both called him out before and he chose to stay retired from the game. So it's not their fault that a fight was never made. Out of these three, Canelo has proven himself the superior fighter and I believe he's going to unify 175 next.

                      One guy has everyone dropping what they do in order to land a fight, while the other guy had people dropping what they had to not fight. Golovkin will go down as a huge what if and overall underwhelming career but their scenarios aren’t even remotely the same. If GGG afforded people life changing money, maybe more people would’ve stepped up but Canelo fortunately can get whoever the **** he wants. He obviously has to win the fights and there’s no denying his talent but like I said, two entirely different situations.
