Comments Thread For: Golovkin: If Canelo Thought It's Personal, 3rd Fight Should've Happened Immediately

[Jab jab boom]

Right after canelo controversial win, his stance was that he closed the chapter and was moving on. Which was bs because we all knew there was controversy. Now that ggg is ancient in boxing years, canelo has a sudden deep personal desire to destroy ggg. Baffling how many people can’t see through the fraud that canelo is.

thats exactly it, nelo said im the better guy & i proved it and took off, hes a diva basically and thats what divas do, he had no interest in another ggg fight until now i would say is most likely

GGG is out here playing dumb as usual when his team publicly rejected the fight in 2020.https://www.boxingscene.com/golovkin...canelo--148381

Canelo even circled back and offered it again along with the chance at undisputed in one fight while entitled hypocrite GGG flat out refused to face Derevyachenko again after his disputed win.

If anything it should be personal for GGG. Timeline of events:
1. Canelo drops the WBC middleweight title to duck GGG's mandatory challenge
2. Over a year later, Canelo finally gets in the ring with GGG. GGG easily wins 8 rounds, Canelo gets a gift draw
3. Canelo gets the rematch delayed 6 months because he popped for PEDs. GGG gets stripped of the IBF belt for not fighting a short notice mandatory.
4. The rematch happens. GGG wins 7 rounds, Canelo gets a gift win
5. Canelo ducks for another four years, then drags 40 year old GGG up a weight class

Everyone on here getting all worked up.... Lol, if I remember correctly, a year after the second fight, the fight was offered and explored, only to be shot down by GGG because he wanted a huge purse. It's funny how things work out, GGG wasted all that time because rather fighting anyone of note, he decided to just let DAZN pay out that contract they overpaid him until it ran out, now that's there's no big money fights out there for him, he finally decided to take whatever they were offering him. Oh yeah, and I forgot, not to mention that GGG refused to move up in weight, which is not a crazy demand considering he has drained himself to fight at 160 all his career.....

a CAREER Mw ala Hagler “draining” himself the whole time while showing zero effects of it! Cmon - you reaching now to defend Canelo. Canelo himself never once said after the 2nd he wanted to settle the “bad-blood” or wanted the trilogy to “‘leave no doubt” …until now 4 yrs later.

Only one person to blame , himself
GGG did fugh all and chased Canelo like a puppy
He should of made his own legacy instead of depending on Canelo
And I ain’t no fan of either

He's right, but Canelo really needed to make sure this time he beats GGG convincingly and 40 is the age when he can do it while still pretending that this is a competitive fight that generates $$$. This tactics shows Canelo's true confidence and character much better than the one he shows in the ring fighting weaker opponents or elite/dangerous opponents past their prime. He was timid and shy like a ****** on a date with Bivol, I guess he'll wait him out too?.. GGG won't win this fight and so be it, at least he'll earn a ton of money and good for him in the sport that has done him dirty so unreservedly.

Canelo will have a horrible time trying to wait out Bivol hahahahah Bivol is younger then Canelo. Bivol is 31 and Canelo is 32 as of this writing.

Triple DDDuck waited a year to find a network and a new trainer after the Canelo fights. When he finally signed on to DAZN he went on his bum hunting tour. Never unified until the Murata fight four years after the Canelo fight and taking on the weakest champion in the division. But Canelo is the one to blame.

“If he wanted this fight back then, if he thought it’s personal, that fight should’ve happened immediately,”

Let's think about the flawed logic here. These are professional boxers, meaning boxing is their business -- how they make their living. These are not school kids settling a dispute with their fists in the schoolyard. What is the worse thing that Canelo can do to Golovkin, fight with him and punch him in the face a few times or deprive Golovkin of multi-millions of dollars? The latter of course. This is what he has done for years until DAZN held out for linking a fight with Golovkin as a precondition of fighting any other DAZN fighter. It was a smart move on the part of Hearn and DAZN. Canelo and his team got outmaneuvered on this one.

Think about it. You have a choice of fighting someone you hate or humiliating them, by keeping them from earning millions of dollars. Hit him where it really hurts, right?

How is Canelo Humiliating GGG by not fighting him for 4 years and then claiming its personal and he going for the knock out this time to settle any doubts ??? the only thing that destroys your vision is exactly what Canelo just said its personal and he's going for the knock out..

A fight that would fit your vision would be Cotto vs Margarito where Cotto said he wasnt going to give that cheat another fight and left it at that until he was forced to by the networks and fought him for a second fight.

GGGrandpa is correct yet the CleneloCawksuckers will aegue different. I dont wanna hear about the weakest division in sports excuse. Saul waited/aged GGGrandpa out, period
