Does GGG deserve the same scrutiny as Canelo?

[Godsfly]

He would have lost by KO to porter if that was the case.

no he wouldn't.....he hugged on to porter for dear life and reduced the amount of clean shots by holding on to him.

brooks chin is shaky at welterweight.


trash disgrace fight for golovkin. the guy is 34 going on 35 fighting a welterweight? HAHAHAHAHAHA

To try to show some semblance consistency, GGG fanclub are a saying GGG should be criticized instead of actually directly criticizing GGG like they harshly criticized Canelo. Too weak to pull the trigger themselves.

Brook will be higher than 160, this is not a WW fight, he will put weigh on, don't be silly. Golovkin has weighed from 168 to 173. Average 170.5

There will be less than 10 pounds of difference. Canelo had at least 12 pounds of advantage.

Khan said he was 165 against Canelo.

The "We don't fuck around" followed by 'I'll fight you September 2017...maybe' is the single greatest act of faggotry I've ever seen in the sport. Canelo deserves more shit than any other active fighter.

Of course he does. Canelo and GGG are affected by the current political divisions in boxing, meaning that the match-ups with PBC fighters that should happen, aren't even discussed. The difference is that everyone wants to fight Canelo, while most make excuses to avoid GGG.

Khan said he was 165 against Canelo.

Where did he said that? I've read that he aimed to make 165 but was actually 163. I can be wrong, if you have a link...

[_Maxi]

and khan didnt?? thats fat and water, 2 or 3 months is not enough time to add 7 or 10 lbs of muscle... just throw the towell and stop defending this joke, is making you look bad...

Khan fight night weight against Devon alexander at WW -> 161.
Against Canelo at 155 -> 163.

He only made two pounds. Let's see what happens with Brook but I believe he will make more than that. Do you have any info on recent fight night weights?

[-Hyperion-]

Sure, and this situation is totally different to Canelo-Khan, so I don't have much problem with this. Hearn himself said Eubank got a good deal and got cold feet. Same deal was offered to Brook and he accepted. No relevant middleweight was willing to fight Golovkin in September. If GGG wouldve settled for any middleweight other than Eubank/Saunders/Jacobs(who are all unwilling to fight), the same people up in arms now would be up in arms anyway.
As far as Brook goes, he is a big welterweight not a former lightweight, and he is somewhat of an unknown quantity, which is intriguing.....We all knew Khan had a really really bad chin and moving up had only helped him so much, he still got dropped by Julio Diaz at welter.

Canelo actually had options and picked the most money for the least risk, plain and simple. Then ran back to 54....

im a canelo fan and i trashed canelo-khan since the moment it was anounced, the golovkids need to show some self respect and do the same... now is the time to see which ones are fans and which ones are fanboys...

Yeah, he said he would come in at 165, and I'm taking his word for it. Where did you get 163 from?
