    GGG Is Older Than Nelo, Yet

    Is in the passenger seat in this ride to glory
    Sitting at the Kiddy Table, fidgeting....

    Cmon....

    500 amateur wins and a a slew of MW KO's !!!!!

    YoungNelo is the face of boxing
    Standards and expectations are higher
    No one else has to make a move or PROVE themselves.

    There's a problem here that GGG will solve only if he's going after the money. That is, he's a career middleweight. I doubt of Alvarez will come back down to 160. He's in the driver's seat.

    I believe that GGG was robbed twice by not getting clear wins before. I nearly all the boxing experts, by a large margin,, had him clearly winning both fights. But boxing politics are so rotten.

      GGG should be where Nelo is.
      He thrived in a dead div and his fans cheered him on. Allowing GGG's ''career'' to stagnate.

      The 1st fight was close
      The rematch was all Nelo. Gave GGG that Mexican Business.
      The only battle GGG won was the jab.
      Nelo rendered GGG to mostly a headhunting 1 punch at a time desperado.
      The way Nelo evaded GGG's primitive attacks while on the ropes

      Shame GGG's fans (and the fans of these weak Boogeymen - The 3 B's) aren't asked to chase greatness by paving their own road !

        I always liked that picture...Jimmy Thunder after his first punch KO of Crawford Grimsley, the fastest in history.

          Grim was pretty feisty on the canvas...Throwing punches at those tending to his concussion .

            if canelo fights ggg now isnt that a cherry pick? fighting a washed up old 160 pounder at 168? that would be pretty shameful, especially given canelo's cowardice in ducking a third fight, resorting to using ped's, hiding in a dead 168 division for years when he could have fought ggg in a third fight or beterbiev at 175(said he was too small when he already fought there and is willing to fight there again) yeah what high standads he has! thats called cherry picking my friend. its just a coincidence he never fights the best guys in their primes! sure sure

              Would GGG be washed up if he gave Rolls a rematch or will he shine ?
              The 3 B's haven't done shlt but collect easy KO after easy KO. Why don't they fight each other or MOVE UP ?
              GGG spent 99% of his career beating guys he had no business even fighting. Resume don't lie ! Fans like to dress them up, though.
              Strange how GGG was never asked to chase greatness until he was ''over the hill''

              Tell me, why isn't GGG the face of boxing ?

                ggg beat 10 top 10 fighters and got robbed against a roided up canelo. he hasnt done sh-it? ggg is 40. hes clearly not the same fighter he was. do you think canelo at 40 will be the same as he is now? beterbiev ko'd the lineal champ. easy? those things aren't impressive yet beating a washed kovalev and caleb plant are great? its called hype my friend. canelo is one of the best fighters in boxing but hes also cherry picking. those two things arent mutually exclusive. canelo is not levels above every single fighter just in the same way ggg never was. hes clearly a waiter, meaning he waits until guys are faded enough or safe enough to fight.

                he uses his ability to fight in multiple weight divisions for evil, not good. im not a 160 pounder i cant fight ggg! yet he can fight chavez jr at 165? callum smith is too good...ill fight rocky fileidng....oh wait callum smith lost to ryder? im ready now! i cant fight beterviev im not a 175 pounder! ill fight bivol or makabu though! fighting in multiple divisions gives him the ability to hide out and avoid fights. the same way he created a fake 155 division to avoid ggg. you see it as some kind of impressive feat but in reality changing divisions allows him to cherry pick more effectively which is why ggg deserves more respect for taking on anyone in his division from pirog to canelo. moving up and down divisions doesnt mean much when you put it into the context of only doing it to make the fights you want and avoid the fights you dont want. i

                s it a coincidence canelo was figthing at 168 the last couple years? and he never even fought the most talented fighter there during his pathetic run. it was a dream scenario for him. if only canelo had the politial power and money to make the good fights! face of boxing chooses to strand himself in a dead division while saying i cant fight in other divisions...which we knew was a lie since he already did and was willing to fight in other divisions...against the right opponent. FACE OF BOXING PEOPLE! must be a massive conspiracy to stop him from fighting the best! PUH-LEASE! he chose this path and now he must live with the criticism. not everyone is going to be a sycophant and lick his boots. he truly had the power to be one of the greats(unlike ggg who didnt have that power) and he chose to pick easier fights so we have to judge him accordingly.

                  Like Pac fans, you don't name names (the bolds)

                  Is there a reason why GGG isn't the face of boxing hiding in there ?

                    Different post, yet the same.

                    No excuse good enough for not demanding GGG get the fck out of that dead div and take on bigger men.
                    Whatever little Nelo has done, GGG has done less.

                    GGG was never the face of boxing with his over the hill ass (unless he's fighting some bum)
