    Did Canelo kill GGG's mystique?

    Before the Canelo "losses", GGG had this unstoppable mystique. People had to catch his fights, now he's borderline irrelevant and nobody's buying his PPVs. It's like his star was snuffed out.

    It's odd as Canelo didn't decimate him and many people still think he won them.

    The mystique was still there after the first fight.

    Once Canelo clearly won the second fight it was game over for GGG and his mystique.

    Then GGG killed what remained of his career by robbing Dery and fighting bum after bum.

    oh and the only people that try and say GGG won’t both fights are Canelo haters. It’s a lie, like people that try and repeat and repeat Pacquio beat Mayweather hoping that if it’s spread enough times people will begin calling the decision controversial.

      I have it as 1 win each. Its unfortunate Saul wanted no part of a 3rd fight as it wouldve been a record breaker imo. At this point, G hasnt aged well and Saul has moved past the MW division.

        The mystique just grows as most fans realize a prime Canelo's controversial MD decision over a 36 year old Golovkin remains as Alvarez' best win.

          nope! clenelo's been running away from a third fight with golovkin for three years! ginger even sued and left his longtime promoter and best buddy de la hoya because de la hoya wanted to make a third fight happen. your ppv point is ****** and shows you aren't paying attention. or maybe troll gonna troll.

            Loma took his spot. There's only room for one great euro hope.

                The second fight and win wasn’t controversial. Quit lying.

                    pretty much none of the media scorecards had canelo winning the 2nd fight, how is that not controversial?
