    Duran should of took his own advice when he was boxing but his continuation to box even way past his best was more financial where as GGG don't need to worry about thay because he's made alot of money. Especially in his last few fights fights. Got 5 million plus 70% ppv against murata so he ended up with about 10 - 11million apparently. 7 million against zeramata. And 25 million guarantee plus whatever add ons against canelo. Pride an ego will be the only thing that keeps him carrying on but I dont wanna see a once great fighter get beat up by these younger fresher guys.

      How are you a good name if you never been a champion in an era where everybody is a champion? Half never been champs and the other half have no notable wins at all. No noatble wins before or after fighting GGG.

      we literally judge resumes based on who you fought and beat. If you beating non champions. That means you aint fighting nobody.

      And I simply forgot about Daniel Geale. He beat guys overseas. Came to America and we seen who he is. Another euro bum. You brought geale up as if he's a great fighter. Lmaoooo

      We all know ggg resume is sh#t. And at age 40 it ain't gonna get better.

      You are a typical butthurt fanboy. you disagree with me on your man crush so I'm a loser. Man gtfoh. You don't know me or anything about me. But we do know ggg resume is weak.
      I'm not a "fanboy" you child. And my happiness thankfully doesn't revolve around guys I don't know and have never met winning or losing. But I do enjoy the sport and (unlike you) respect the fighters and I'll always stick up for guys like Gabe Rosado or Derek Chisora or David Price when some keyboard pu55y like yourself calls them bums or nobodies. I'm not the one casting aspersions at World Champions while hiding behind my keyboard, so yes, you are a loser because you're nothing but an empty bag. And I know enough about you by the way you type (did you graduate?) and if you were a mature adult you wouldn't feel the need to unsuccessfully attempt to piss on World Champions to make your empty self feel better. Curious what exactly you've accomplished in your life that gives you that right. And Geale was a unified middleweight World Champion regardless of what a schmuck like you thinks of him. He lost to Mundine, a multiple time World Champion, Darren Barker, another World Champion, 2 HOF fighters in Cotto and Golovkin, and Renold Quinlan, who was IBO World Champion. Remind me again who you are?

        ggg is food for any top guy at 160 and 168, but it doesn't matter if he only fight bums, yeah? He is too scared to fight the top guys not named canelo.

          Now cowards are gonna grow some after ducking GGG so long. Despite my criticism of G I still rate him highly and I think he’s in a good position coming off an L, it’ll entice the guy’s who bn ducking him at MW

              You can say 'fact' after your opinions all you want, its the internet people do it all the time. But what I stated and claimed to be fact is fact, not opinion.
              GGG fans are not in a rush to hail those ''ranked'' fighters

              Then again, GGG fans call Biv a cherry.............

                Disappointing ending to a good rivalry. Golovkin looked lke he just wanted to last 12 rounds (what's the opposite of "search and destroy"? ) and Canelo just coasted after probably winning the first 8 rounds.
                I've always liked G but come on, you're 40 , close to the end of the road and , your belts aren't on the line, try to show some fire.
                As for Alvarez, this is the second fight in a row where he's gassed down the stretch. What's up with that? OK, he says he had a hand injury, but most of the time you can compensate and vary your training to make up for it.
                Respect to two warriors and future hall of famers, but, to me, the third fight, 4 years after the second, was just a money grab.

                  I think he performed very well, better than most fighters in the middle-super middle weight divisions would do vs Alvarez. Very well.

                  Came through the early bombardment, and was the stronger fighter in the second half of the fight. But for sure he lost the fight.

                  Golovkin is still a top fighter in the middle weight divisions. Maybe he should just give a big push, and try to become undisputed at 160 pounds. Just go for it.

                  I will say this, I think the Murata fight was fought at a higher intensity by far. Where as Alvarez fought at a higher intensity compared to his Bivol fight.

                  Skill for skill it was a high level fight, and Golovkin can clearly still box very well.
